Guys looking for some thoughts/feedback.

Recruitment is a big problem and hence an huge industry. Estimated to be $400 billion worldwide and $73 billion in US.

Campus recruitment must be atleast 40-50% of this cost.

I myself have a lot of recruiting costs and still not satisfied with results. Since i am a customer myself, i believe, i can come up with very good requirement and hence corresponding solutions.
I researched and found no website dedicated to campus recruitment. Here are some high level features on a "campus-recruiter" site.
  • Easy way for students to provide info. Data provided only once.
  • Various rankings ie. ranking by overall academic performance, by latest test resuts, as per standardized test results, as per peer rating within the class, as per professor ratings etc. etc.
  • Students can pick the companies in order of priority
  • Companies can pick the students in order of priority
etc. etc. i will leave the rest to your imagination.

1) how many of you find this interesting?
2) Anybody interested in investing in the project. My estimate to build this is around $50k. I guess it will need a lot more in marketing.

Hi!
 
Sounds interesting! Should you be getting in touch with the recruiters(end users) to see their requirements and needs? Let me know if you need any connections.
Can invest!

CP - hope you are doing well.  This definitely looks like an interesting idea and I think it may have some good potential.   At the end of the day, it sounds like a monster.com for college students.  I remember using jobtrak, which was acquired and renamed monstertrak.  It allows recruiters to have a common platform across all the schools the recruit from.

Also, I finally decided to try out one of my entrepreneurial ideas - it's called Aik Dinh and accessible through www.aikdinh.com.  I'd be interested in hearing your thoughts.

Bobby!
 
I also thought of monster.com when I read your email. So will it be reinventing the wheel?
