The US Recruitment market is currently valued at $90 billion but its Indian counterpart is barely more than a billion dollars. Despite India creating far more jobs than the United States, the Indian recruiting industry remains a pygmy in comparison. The online recruitment sliver of this industry, which is about 10 years old in India, accounts for almost a sixth of this market and also represents the fastest growing segment. “E-recruiting” , as the online slice of the business is popularly called, has its share of benefits and disadvantages.

While it works effectively for entry level staff, who are not taken through an elaborate selection process, it is just as ineffective for middle and senior management recruiting. Worse, the non-formal culture that e-recruiting has bred is an unwelcome challenge for high value recruiting firms who undertake a stringent diligence process prior to recommending candidates to their contracted clients for specific roles. Candidates have begun to view recruiting firms as redundant intermediaries and expect them to “download, cut and paste” their resumes from job portals and send them along to clients without screening them, much like postmen. Some of them get aggressive if they are put through a wringer, which is how it ought to be for any middle or senior management role.

India has been ranked as the third best country to tide over the global economic crisis by a worldwide survey among business persons to understand the business morale and impact of the economic downturn. According to the Servcorp International Business Confidence Survey, India has been ranked as the third most promising country to survive the economic crisis.

The survey, which was conducted in April 2009 over a period of two weeks, was commissioned to understand the current mood, business morale and impact that the economic downturn has had on businesses around the world. Australia has been voted as the best place to be during these recessionary times by International business people, followed by China.

The third position is held jointly by India and Singapore while Hong Kong and Canada are in the fifth and sixth place, respectively. Interestingly, developing nations have emerged favourites among international businessmen as places, which are the best placed to tide over the recession. Twenty one of the thirty six countries listed by the ServCorp International Business Confidence Survey are emerging market companies.

One day after its nuclear test drew angry and widespread condemnation, North Korea continued to defy the international community on Tuesday by test-firing two more short range-missiles, a South Korean government official said. The missile firings came just hours after South Korea said it would join an American-led operation to stop the global trafficking in weapons of mass destruction, an action the North has previously said it would consider a declaration of war.

The developments sharpened the confrontation between North Korea and much of the international community including the US as the United Nations Security Council vowed to craft a resolution that could impose further sanctions on the increasingly isolated North. South Korean news agency Yonhap said the missiles had a range of 80 miles, and were launched from a base on the central eastern coast into the sea opposite Japan.

Brushing aside the latest international condemnation, Pyongyang said the US was the aggressive one, its long held argument to justify having a nuclear arsenal. “The US would be well advised to halt at once its dangerous military moves against North Korea if it wants to escape the lot of a tiger moth, bearing in mind that any attempt to make  a pre-emptive attack on us is little short of inviting a disaster itself,” a Pyongyang statement said.

The slain LTTE chief Vellupillai Prabhakaran’s wife and daughter as well as his top aide Pottu Amman have died in the Sri Lankan conflict, the Tigers’ International spokesman S.Pathmanathan has told the rebel supremo’s ex-rally Karuna Amman. Col Karuna, the LTTE commander who fell out with Prabhakaran in 2004, said that Pathmanathan has claimed that the wife and daughter of Prabhakaran were dead. Mathivathani and daughter Duwarka were earlier believed to have fled to Europe. The whereabouts of Prabhakaran’s 13-year-old son Balachandran are also not known.

Meanwhile, the Lanakan military said it wants to boost its army by more than 100,000 troops to prevent resurgence of the Tamil Tigers or any other such group. The troop build up, which will increase the number of Sri Lankan forces from 200,000 to 300,000, was announced by the Army chief Gen Sarath Fonseka. “There may be people abroad trying to promote a new leader and stage a comeback,” he told a state run television. The Lankan Government said it was holding 9,100 suspected former Tamil Tiger rebel fighters, most of whom were being sent for “rehabiliation and vocational training.”

Serena Williams, Jelena Jankovic and Svetlana Kuznetsova dodged rain showers on Tuesday to glide into the second round of the French Open. American second seed Serena breezed past Czech Republic’s Klara Zakopalova 6-3, 6-4. Twenty four hours after the scorching conditions in Paris had left many players hot and bothered, temperatures had dipped by more than 15 degrees Celsius after overnight thunderstorms.

Jankovic did not had to sweat much and seemed relieved when she could get back into the warmth of the locker room with a 6-2, 6-3 win over Czech Petra Cetkovska.

“I felt a little bit slow after the rain delay when i came back on court again. But i managed to finish the job in two sets, so i am happy,” said the fifth seed, a semifinalist in Paris in 2008. Like Janakovic, Russian Kuznetsova also had to endure a two-hour rain break during the first set but she made sure she did not slip up on resumption and bamboozled French wildcard Claire Feuerstein 6-1, 6-4.

After having come tantalisingly close to winning the IPL, the loss continues to haunt the Royal Challengers Bangalore skipper Anil Kumble. Two days after the loss to Deccan Chargers in Johannesburg, Kumble and Co arrived in the city on Tuesday and the former Indian captain was still to come in terms with the defeat.

“The loss in the final is difficult to digest. Even after two days, it is tough to accept that we lost,” a disappointed Kumble said.

“It was a great opportunity and we ended up losing it. It might be easy for the players who are still playing as they can carry on, but it hurts that we lost,” he added.

Things were not going great for Bangalore before Kumble took over after Kevin Pieterson left for national duty. The Bengaluru veteran led from the front with his bowling. He tallied 22 wickets and bowled his heart out in the final with a man-of-the-match 4/16 in the final. Kumble pointed out two matches that proved to be the turning point- “The first match against the Knight Riders at Durban and Pieterson’s last game, was what gave us the impetus. From there we picked up.
