Update your status, update your job in ibibo

More and more people are using professional social networking websites to upgrade their job profiles and climb the ladder of success.Nineteen-year old Chandani Nasir, a second-year science student and winner of iFreshface contest on social networking site www.Ibibo.com, has taken on the fashion world practically sitting at home. She had logged on to ibibo.com to check out her friend’s profile but ended up uploading her pictures on the website as a part of an ongoing ‘Model Hunt’ contest. Nasir went on to win the contest and bagged a free portfolio shot by one of leading fashion photographers, Daboo Ratnani. The student-cum-model also got picked by Elite Model Management, which now handles all her modelling contracts. As Nasir starts her new profession, she recounts her aha moment and how it made her a believer in professional networking and the importance of building profile pages on social sites. “Had I not logged on to the social networking portal, my student to model transition would have cost me Rs 2-3 lakh,” she smiles.

Welcome to the world of professional social networking, where graduates log on to find summer internships, out-of-work executives fish for prospective employers, and young entrepreneurs claim to bag business deals over casual ‘notes’.

Admittedly, professional social networking phenomenon is still in its infancy at least when compared to job portals like Naukri.com. The site has over 2 lakh listed jobs at any point of time and serves over 34,000 corporate clients. No wonder , Yogesh Bansal, founder & CEO , ApnaCircle is focused on drawing a critical mass to his site, which at present has just about half a million subscribers. He also admits that when ApnaCircle was launched, majority of the users wanted to use it as just another social networking portal, although he adds, “Users are beginning to realise what professional networking is and now about 70 per cent of our users use the site for professional reasons.”

BRTS project faces uncertainty

Another ambitious project after the metro rail, the Bus Rapid Transit System (BRTS) is facing uncertainty.

The consultant of the BRTS project -- Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA) -- has been untraceable for the past four months.

The Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) authorities said they had been making attempts to reach the CIDA executives through phone calls and letters but there has been no response for the past few months.

"The consultant should have given detailed designs of the BRTS project and cost estimations by March 2009. But, they have not been in touch with the municipal corporation since January this year," GHMC additional commissioner (traffic and transport) S Subba Rao told TOI.

The CIDA has submitted reports on project feasibility, environmental and social assessment and preliminary design for the 18.8 km corridor proposed from Rethibowli to JNTU, Kukatpally.

The agency reportedly did not respond to an official letter sent to the director of Canadian Partnership Branch, CIDA, Canada, on April 30, 2009. Earlier, another letter had been written to him in January this year. But there was no response either from the CIDA or local representatives even after this letter.

The agency initially surveyed and submitted a project report on social assessment in Feb 2008 to the state government and evinced interest in conduct a detailed study for the BRTS corridor.

As it came forward to undertake a free feasibility study, the Unified Metropolitan Transport Authority (UMTA) agreed for this.

It was decided that the GHMC would provide infrastructure facilities for the BRTS like road widening, while APSRTC would operate buses on this route. The estimated cost of the project is between Rs 5 and Rs 15 crore per km.

A special purpose vehicle (SPV) was also planned by UMTA to monitor the BRTS project as it is a top priority project for the city.

The Centre is promoting BRTS in various cities by giving funds under the Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission (JNNURM) as 82 per cent of urban people depend on the public transport system.

"If the CIDA drops out the BRTS project will be delayed for one more year," a GHMC official said.

Cyclone in Kolkata

Three people were killed in Kolkata on Monday as cyclone Aila crossed the coast into West Bengal. There was no information from the coastal districts, where extensive damage was feared.

As the cyclone that had formed in the Bay of Bengal hit Kolkata around 11 am on Monday, a large number of trees were uprooted, blocking major roads. The three victims, one in north Kolkata and two in the south, were killed by falling trees or house collapses, officials said.

Weather officials were expecting the wind speed to pick up to 100-120 km per hour as the full fury of the cyclone hits Kolkata by the evening.

Chief Minister Buddhadeb Bhattacharjee said the army had been asked to stand by for rescue operations.

Deputy Commissioner (Detective Department) Javed Shamim told IANS that "boats have been kept ready for emergency evacuation" of people from low lying areas of the city.
