RE: Going live

Hi Hemen,

Good to see you pushing your app out there.

I need to let you know that you need to preintegrate the app with our SDK before pushing out on to the market. If you do so later, you will again need to push all your downloads again.

Subject: RE: Going live

Dear Siddharth

Thank you for inquiring

As it stands , our app ( My Jobs ) is live, and can be downloaded / installed , either from our own web site or from Android Market

Although there are some downloads from both locations , surprisingly there is NO usage !

May be the people who downloaded , did not “ Register “ subsequently on www.CustomizeResume.com for getting job alerts

In any case , Datawind has tested “ My Jobs “ widget and found it to work satisfactorily

I believe they plan to start supplies of Aakash2 tablets from next month when our widget will get pre-installed before dispatch

After that I expect the usage to pick up

In the meantime , Shuklendu ( Sentient Systems ) is developing another widget , “ RESUME BLASTER “ which is expected to be ready for testing by next week

If it works as expected , we will register it with InMobi separately – then give it to Datawind for their testing

I will keep you informed of further developments

Regards

Hello Sushant,

We are communicating with you regarding blocking of our Account hcp@recruitguru.com, as per Siddharth’s mail below.

Our main problem is that we cannot take any corrective action, because the InMobi mail does not tell us,

1. Which of our 2 properties ‘MyJobs’ and ‘ResumeBlaster’ has caused a problem

2. Which one of Publisher Terms and Conditions have we violated

You can see from our account that there is No Unusual Activity going. The Total Revenue, including for the 14 months since we launched our first widget MyJobs, is NOT MORE THAN 5 dollars.

I also want to mention that we are part of reputed group of more than 20 years standing. Large corporate trust us for very sensitive assignments. Our promoters are highly respected professionals and are well known internationally.

There is no question that we will indulge any malpractice. Any violation that has happened is completely UNINTENTIONAL. Also, we are ready to make any change in the code to comply with InMobi terms and conditions.

Please help us in knowing what has gone wrong and resolving it at the earliest. We have lot of plans promotion, which are currently at complete standstill.

Hoping for your early reply.

Thought for Today

Dear Team

A few days back , I came across following quote in Eco Times :
“ If you do everything you are asked to do, and you do it well, you get a C. In order to be a superstar, [ to get an A or A+ ], you have to do things that nobody asked you to do “
--- Vivek Ranadive [ CEO, Tibco Software / Author : Two Second Advantage ]
The article goes on to say :
“ Last year , Ranadive sacked his America Sales Chief despite the Palo Alto, California-based infrastructure-software provider surpassing market expectations.”
Some years back , when Jack Welch was CEO of General Electric , he had laid down following rules for his Divisional Managers :

Ø If you cannot be either no 1 or no 2 in your business , get out of that business

Ø Every year sack the bottom 10 percentile ( by way of performance ) of your employees

Danger is , coming from industry leaders ( such as Ranadive / Welch ) , such statements are blindly accepted as Gospel Truth !

Problem with most companies is :

Ø Bosses seldom clearly / unambiguously spell out , what they “ Expect “ from their subordinates during the course of the budget-year , by way of measurable “ Achievements “

Ø There is rarely in place , an “ independent “ mechanism ( like Finance Manager ? ) , to continuously “ measure “ the actual achievements ( against targets set in advance , at the beginning of the year ) , and publish the “ Deviations / Variances “ for ALL to see transparently

Ø Year-end “ Performance Appraisal “ exercise , degenerates into a match of , : In Boss’s opinion Vs In subordinate’s opinion “

Why ?

Because many “ Activities “ being carried out by employees are NOT measurable in terms of “ Measurable Achievements “ !
There are always many activities of certain individuals ( that must be undertaken for smooth performance by the others ) which cannot be measured in terms of , Sales Turnover / Orders Booked / Billing done / Costs reduced , etc

In my opinion , in any given organization , there are only very few employees , whose performances can be measured Quantitatively
And , in turn , they depend upon timely assistance of many others to be able to do their jobs

But don’t fall back on my arguments to take the easy path out , viz:
How can I fix targets for Receptionist / Office Assistants / Administrators etc ?
Prepare a list of ALL their repetitive activities and list day wise / week wise / month wise etc
Paste this in front of his / her desk and tick whether done ( in that week or month ) or not
Some 50 years back , when I was Production Engineer in the Switchgear factory of L&T , I had prepared such “ Lists “ ( Department wise ) and called these ,
ACRA ( Annual Calendar of Repetitive Activities )
Then pasted these ACRAs on the notice boards of each department , for everyone to see
And made Department Head responsible for simply ticking whether that activity got done ( or not ) in that particular week / month
With such ACRA staring in your face every day , employees looked up what was expected to be completed , not only during THIS week but also during the NEXT week or NEXT month !
This had a remarkable impact on getting things done on time !
Unfortunately MBA does not teach you the fundamental principle of SUCCESS in any project / activity / enterprise, viz:
Against a time-line , make a list of things to do !

Good Day Mr. Siddarth,

As spoken to you over phone, this is regarding Mr. Hemen Parekh’s InMobi Account got blocked today.

Recently we have launched our second App “Resume Blaster” on Inmobi on 01-Mar-2013.

After successful integration of Inmobi with our App using InMobi testing AppID , we have tested the APP using our InMobi Live APP ID in our testing environment (using emulator) several times.

While testing the APP in our testing environment, we have clicked Live ADVTs several times to resolve the App related issues.

RESUME BLASTER

Dear Suneet

You will recall that when we met at your lecture at Asiatic Society ( March 2012 ), we talked about my proposed app “ Resume Blaster “. After looking at the screen-shots , you suggested some improvements and encouraged us to complete the development

I am happy to announce the launch of ,

RESUME BLASTER

As mentioned earlier , Resume Blaster will enable jobseekers ( especially UnderGrads / Fresh Graduates ) to blast their resumes to,

Ø 100,000 + Companies by Company-names

Ø Industry-wise ( to 51 Industry Sectors )

Ø City-wise ( to 665 Cities / Towns , all over India )

And do this , absolutely FREE !

By end April, Company list will reach 700,000 +, in 1000 + cities

Resume Blaster is destined to become the most used app amongst 35 lakh students graduating from Indian colleges each year .

It will enable them to send their resumes to lakhs of companies which do have vacancies ( jobs to fill ) , but which neither conduct campus interviews nor advertise in Newspapers or on job-portals

I attach,

Ø Relevant APK file ( 213 Kb )

Ø Screen shots

Please take a look at Screen # 2 ( Sponsored by ) , where I have taken the liberty to display your Company-Name ( a hyperlink ), hoping that you will agree to pre-load Resume Blaster on your tablets

Within a few months , lakhs of fresh graduates will look at this screen , dozens of times everyday , creating an unprecedented brand-recall of your products amongst the youth

And each resume getting blasted ( - expect millions of these within a few months ) , will carry a Hyperlink to your web site

This enormous publicity comes your way , FREE – OF – COST !

I now request you to start pre-loading of Resume Blaster on your products as soon as practically possible

I await your confirmation

For testing the APK file , enter :

Ø User ID = testing1@gmail.com

Ø Password = testing

With regards,

Hemen Parekh

Jobs for All = Peace on Earth

PS :

As in March 2013 , Resume Blasting services of other job-portals are as follows :

Portal……………. Service Name……….. Target Companies………….. Price (Rs)

· Naukri………..Resume Flash…………….900 Consultants………………. 1,000 /-
