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.

We are already live

March 29, 2008

Hi,

Talentty.com is already one week old. Apologies for a delayed messaging on Blog as we had quite a bit of task to handle ..

Just one week, we have dozens of employer posting jobs and being the first ones to believe we are offering something different. Thank you, we have long miles to go. I must admit, the online recruitment industry is hugely populated with many sites trying to do the ’same thing’. At Talentty.com, we have tried to be slightly different in offering following unique features

1. Specialized JobBoard

What it is : There are hugely popular job sites in India having million of jobs, they make perfect sense for big corporates to invest huge sum of money to put their job on main page but how about that small to medium range company who can’t always afford to do that, how can they list their jobs so that it “always shows up” having an unique place rather than getting crowded in bigger ocean.

That’s where we believe Talentty.com’s Specialized JobBoard like Software.talentty.com, php.talentty.com or bpo.talentty.com, etc makes our employers to list job prominently and target the audience.

Also from the professional (job seeker, we call them professional …job seeker is so old fashioned) point of view, if I specialize in Software Development, why do I need to spend hours in digging the software jobs among million on unrelated, aggregated industry jobs??

We would love to hear if our approach really going to benefit ? We are ready to hear your comments, we believe without that we can’t grow.

2. Matching Engine :-

Every day 1000’s of jobs are getting posted and million of professional looking for a career change.

HR professionals have better things todo rather than spending 80% time in filtering & hiring.

Professional have a busy career and reputations to manage while he/she is looking for a change. So absolutely it doesn’t make sense for them to spend hours in office time or personal time to filter million jobs.

So we thought why not we use the new technology, content matching, aspiration-requirement  matching between professional and employer via our Matching Engine and reduce the effort required to filter.

Matching Engine is in BETA stage but we intend to offer path-breaking solutions to our community.

Do you have any insight on what is being overlooked in industry? We will love to hear.

3. Anonymous Profile/Private Profile

At Talentty.com, Professional’s profile is 100% private. Yes, in the age of Social network, does it makes sense?? We believe it makes sense because profession and personal life are 2 different things and we all are opening up to new world. There may be a day when all this will merge to one. For now, we see million of professionals prefer to stay “hidden/passive”. They have a better job, better life and better things todo, so they are not interested to be listed on a career portal/job site.

Therefore we thought, we must hear them. Using this Private profile and our matching Engine, such Potential passive professionals will get more direct info and take decision when it matters to them.

4. Startup Friendly

We eat, drink and live with Statups. Our team has worked with statrups in the past  and we believe they are the best gift to a society, nation and individual. We at talentty.com, have a spcialized JobBoard : http://startup.talentty.com/

We are also going to offer Startup companies to post their job in Startup JobBoard FREE, always.

Also we believe being new entrant to market, we will hear you 200%. We are offering FREE service so it doesn’t add to your cost. Also we have an existing community of 1000’s daily subscribers from our sister concern JobMilan.

You are most welcome. We are here to bring innovation and we are determined. It will only make more sense when you let us know, correct us, comment us and may be just say “Hi” :)

Thanks,

Santosh
