Nice. I guess it’s better to have a realistic expectation of “when”, than get it wrong !!

Can I keep the same number if I move to a different circle e.g. if I move from Delhi to Mumbai will I be able to keep my number and not have to pay the roaming charges?

i hope there are now blackout periods during transfer from one operator to other. even today, some times when a connection is converted from pre paid to post paid one has to suffer atleat 1/2 days of connection black out.

Comment on Clickjobs Launches Pay Per Contact Model To Counter Recession by Jobportal Sales Guy

Jobportal Sales Guy — Thu, 02 Jul 2009 10:10:41 +0000

Been in Jobportal Sales for more than 10 Years

Few pratical Issues with this model:

Companies are already paying leading Jobportals for Unlimited DBS and JP. What’s that Clickjobs is offering different?? ( Database is again duplicate of Naukri / Monster / Timesjobs..)and why to pay more when the recurter is not even sure the intrest level of candidate.

@ Sanjay

Recuriters are looking for Instant Access, not to wait for Clickjobs to sent in the response and then contact the candidate ( By that time some other consultant whould have sourced same profile)

This is tried and Failed model ( Pay/usage) by portals like Jobstreet and Careerbuilder in India in 2001-2004.

There are enough Players in jobportal Industry. If Clickjobs can come up addressing issues which otherwise not been taken care by the industry leaders, then i think it would make a difference.

All the Best

Comment on Growth Predictions - Online at 44%, Mobile at 600% in FY ‘09-10 - Digital Media Outlook Report by Nachiket

Nachiket — Wed, 01 Jul 2009 09:23:35 +0000

The effort by Webchutney is highly appreciable. However, nothing new seems to be coming out from it. Overall the same old story of internet being treated as a step medium by marketers is reflecting from the report. May be some insights and efforts to actually educate marketers and some studies on bringing in common currency/tools and transparency on the table will help grow industry.
Cheers!!!

hey rajiv, thanks for the post. just a short note on the credibility bit, we used Juxt exactly for the same reason - the study was conducted independently through them (ofcourse we are associated, but thats really another tangent since they run independently) And personally, given a choice, i would have liked to see the growth much higher than 44%, it wld be good for all of us!
Cheers, and thanks again for the post!
