Jobhunt.in – Easiest Jobsite

“redefine: EASY”

This is what my friend and I had in mind when we decided to create a job site.

To make the “Easiest Job site”. A job site which I and most probably you will use without scowling.

With a lot of reusable stuff from Skillda and 2 months of planning and development we have come out with the beta version of our job site – www.jobhunt.in. What makes it the easiest is that you don’t have much to do either as a job seeker or a recruiter.

As a job seeker, Just upload your resume on the front page or just email it to post@jobhunt.in. Thats it! No more registration or filling up pages of boxes. Our automatic analyzing system picks up the data and tags your resume.

Recruiters too don’t have to pay and register or search for hours to dig up the resumes they want. Type in your filter tags and subscribe. You start getting daily mail from the site with matching resumes.

Isn’t this EASY?

A bad workman blames his tools. What if bad tool starts blaming?

I have spent my last 4 and a half months learning how you should never execute a (software) project.

Though a big disappointment and failure, the previous project had changed my view on a lot of stuff especially processes and documentation. I had always considered micro-level documentation as an avoidable overhead and never believed in process. If you think like me, may be your opinion will change if you know my story.

A project without any proper documentation (scope, requirements, design, project plan…. the list goes on). A very aggressive deadline. Here is where I landed into the project at the end of 2 months. Was anyone scared if the client will go bad? Nobody was. Fast forward >> Client denies the scope. Squeezes in double the original requirements into the scope. You know what happened in the end? He made us work for 6 months and coolly paid for just the original 3 months.

We were screwed big time just for the lack of process and documentation. You know.. I learned it.
