Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

We are thanking all of you who have conveyed your appreciations over mail, chat, official communications.

1.Gautam Ghosh - India’s Best HR Blogger. Apologies Gautam, we missed informing you when we launched as you had a very personal & private moment, we thought we will rather let you know later. And we missed.

Gautam wrote about Talentty : Some +ve and some precious suggestions http://gauteg.blogspot.com/2008/05/some-interesting-websites.html

Santosh from Talentty-> Thanks Gautam.  Talentty being an entrant and when the indian online recruitment industry market is over crowded and having 3 Big brothers :) (Naukri, Monster, Times Jobs), we are open to try innovative solutions. However we are not in hurry, as it takes time for any new entrant to settle down. We are talking to employers, evaluating value chain, going beyond the “me too” approach for bringing out solutions.

We will always value your suggestions, comments. Having followed you for last 4 years, I passionately look for you crticial analysis. Talentty team is also closely observing your comments :)

2.Parvez from Riyaans

Parvez said in official mail:

Regarding the design and combination, its look fantastic except few one thing. i.e.

1. The green color used in work area, can you match the green color with the color in the logo, currently its too fluorescent, which is disturbing to eyes.

2. Some where i have found ” � ” this in the text, for example (check in mozilla)
http://www.talentty.com/talentboard/
TalentBoard Showcase
Bullet number 2. between “services � classifieds”,
Solution :- This come’s due to extra space in two words, if the developer remove that extra space, this well get solved.

If I find any more thing i well let kyou know,

I am telling you this just because to make this website perfect. so please don’t mind it.

Regards

Parvez

Talentty 0.2 Live!

June 12, 2008

Hi All,

We are happy to announce that Talentty 0.2 has gone live. If some of you have followed us from the 0.1, you will see quite a list of changes in this release like

1. Bright colored design scheme

2.We are now open to all industry. Though “Software JobBoard” shows up big time, but our sales team is also talking to various industries.

3. We have introduced “City JobBoard“. This is completely a new concept in India as all other recruitment sites are mainly providing “search” options. We thought having a city based job board is easy to track, allow you to “refer quickly” rather than you scanning lakhs of jobs.

4. Employer microsite : We spoke to few valuable employers. They suggested that none of the recruitment sites allow them to “add HR elements” of their organization while they are publishing jobs.

We thought that is very very valuable advise and we implemented “Employer Microsite”. Employer can mention “about company”, “HR policy”, “Social responsibility”, etc. We at Talentty sure that every organization is different and a prospective candidate must have this information to choose the “right organization”.

5. TalentBoard : This is a new concept, Talentty is first to introduce this concept for prospective candidates to list/express their talent. This can be for job, for networking, for collaboration, etc (beyond imaginations :) The prospective candidates may do this “anonymously” to hide their profile

Employers, recruiters can assess such talent by engaging in a conversation. When they are happy, they can exchange details for assessment (interview..).

We are sure you will LIKE certain features (?), you may have suggestions and you may NOT LIKE. We are ready to hear you. As you would haven seen, we are making steady progress. We are still a baby (0.2 only) and we have many “disruptive” features planned for future release.

Apologies Apologies

June 12, 2008

We have not been able to blog about progress in Talentty and many small small changes we are bringing to the site and product.

Sincere apologies, we are also learning. Being a blogger, I shouldn’t have done this however with added responsibility to “think, work, architect, market,hear to customer”, the startup life has been on a high pace.

No more execuses, we are going to let you know a good news in next post and regularly.

Any comments, suggestions msot welcome.

Thanks,

Santosh
