Now job info in your hands, courtesy Hutch

Kolkata , Jan. 25

DETAILS of select jobs will now be on your mobile, thanks to a job search that Hutchison Telecom East has started offering.

Hutch on Wednesday launched the service in association with 2COMS Consulting, a recruitment company based in Kolkata that will provide the content to both paid and post-paid customers.

The telecom service provider plans to provide the basic particulars of openings in sectors such as banking, IT and telecom. The service will be available to subscribers across Kolkata, Bengal and Sikkim. "We will only provide the information. Subscribers will have the option of applying for the jobs on their mobile," said Mr S. Murali, V-P - Sales & Marketing, Hutchison Telecom East, adding that the service is a first of sorts in the country.

For searching, a caller will have to say "jobs" after dialling 123. The menu will consist of several industry categories, one of which must be singled out by the caller. The list of jobs under that category will then be announced. He or she may then say "apply" for applying for the job, after which a verbal confirmation will be received by the caller.

"The idea is to provide subscribers, that is, those with the right qualifications, the maximum opportunity for career growth," Mr Murali told newspersons. The telecom company and 2COMS Consulting have worked out a specific business relationship.
