Dear friends,
I am from Australia and recently joined CiteHR.com.
I found a request on this site (for all) from somebody without a name or company name, without any address asking for people to submit their resume (CV) to them as this no-name, no-information, no-whereabouts company was going to start a placement agency.
I felt very strange. Usually in the Western world, this can't happen until a person/company is registered and provides a proper professional service to job seekers.
I did write on their site and did raise a question. Few people supported this theory too but no reaction or reply from this no-name, no-address company.
Whatever happens in a few countries as standard or service-wise, my bigger thought is on the professionalism and action of this website, CiteHR.com. How could this company allow this type of thing to happen? Is this acceptable? And here comes my question... I FEEL LIKE WITHDRAWING MY MEMBERSHIP AND NAME FROM THE LIST. THE QUESTION IS TO YOU... SHOULD I OR NOT...
Please assist as I don't know much about CiteHR.com and their services...

I would suggest not to withdraw your name as it's a very useful site. There are lots of things to learn, including law updates, and we learn so much from here. Secondly, it's up to you whether you reply to someone's post or not. Bye.

Dear Sir,
I am submitting herewith the link to the thread referred by Mr. Deepak (1a7d6d0e2a6001f14aecf7c80):
[link no longer exists - removed]
In fact, Mr. Deepak has posted his views on this thread and I too have responded, as quoted below:
https://www.citehr.com/203578-require-ur-resume-9.html#post921466
Raj Kumar Hansdah said: "I agree with you. It's surprising that members have started posting their CV's without ascertaining the credentials of the poster."
1a7d6d0e2a6001f14aecf7c80 said: "Your beginning, your professionalism is very questionable. Before asking for people to send their resume/ CV, etc., first YOU should tell about yourself and what do you etc. What's your company name? QPS is not enough. Address? Where are you based? (Hopefully NOT FROM NIGERIA!) and what services you can provide to help poor job seekers apart from keeping their personal information on your files to make you look better in front of companies. Will wait for your information and level of professionalism / dedication before sending you a copy of the resume."
There are a few such threads soliciting CV's from members. I have "reported" certain threads too.
Warm regards.

Dear Mr. Deepak,
I appreciate your concern. I am sorry to say that you yourself do not have a name and location, or you also have not bothered to mention your name at the end of the post except in a subsequent reply.
After seeing the thread mentioned by Mr. Raj Kumar, I asked questions on two threads, "need for legal candidates for a legal firm in Chennai by Adhivarahan" and "Require your resume by A2Z services," which did not have details of the firms or their background. In response, A2Z services have not yet responded. Adhivarahan sent an attachment mentioning his firm only after my questions, and he mentioned that it is a general practice now to search through the net. He appreciated me for forewarning members but advised me not to jump to conclusions. He has not remembered that cyber crimes are also committed through the net.
It is for the members to decide whether to respond or not. Nowadays, we receive lots of e-mails, SMS, phone calls saying that we won lotteries, lucky draws, and asking for personal details. Despite warnings by the police several times, people respond and end up losing money.

Dear and Respected Mr. Kutty,
Regarding my name or location, firstly, I would like to mention that putting the name or location wouldn't have been a problem at all, except I am very new to this site and I didn't know how to do it (i.e., putting the proper profile name, location, etc.), and it created itself (though I have requested CiteHR officials to help me with how to change the name).
Now, about my name, I am Deepak, and I am from Australia. I also assumed that this site does provide some information about members.
And lastly, one more point, I don't see how that makes a difference to the thread (or inquisition) if I do or don't mention my name or location for some important question.
Regards,
Deepak
P.S.: It may seem like I don't know much about this site, and I do have to spend lots of time on this.

Dear Mr. Deepak,
Thank you for your prompt and positive response. First of all, your name "1a7d" cannot be a name. It is easier to use the word Deepak instead of so many alphanumericals. Are you comfortable with such an identity? Your name is the sweetest word for your ears. It is your identity. You are an individual. A different individual.
Secondly, members have a location displayed on the top of the thread or reply itself. Simhan from the UK, Rajkumar from Delhi, and me from Chennai. All have an address. You mentioned your location in the message only. Many members give their full address at the bottom of the message.
Thirdly, you write about replying to threads without proper address and credentials. Before talking about others, we should have one, isn't it?
Fourthly, I agree with you that you are new to citehr. One day we all were new. (All mothers-in-law were daughters-in-law one day!)
Fifthly, name and location are not important. I fully agree with you. But the issue raised by you is threads without proper addresses or introduction. I believe in practice before preaching.
I had raised this issue because before you wrote, I had taken the initiative against such threads.
You may register with your own name. I am sure you will be able to contribute a lot for the benefit of thousands of members.
With regards and best wishes,

Dear Mr. K C S Kutty,
I really appreciate your humble message. Thank you for your beautiful, touching gesture. I am writing this message in a bit of a hurry, but I do want to convey many things, including a wish for your friendship.
One interesting thing I found out is that if you or anyone clicks on the resume attachments (in the links sent to the replacement agency), anybody can access all the details (including full address, contact number, age, etc.) from their resumes. I read one resume of a lady named Deepa, and all her information was there. This could be very risky if someone with the wrong intentions uses these details for their own purposes. Just imagine if their details end up in the hands of people from Nigeria who are involved in spreading many scams.
I will share more later on. Thank you once again.

Deepak

I agreed with you, Deepak. I never respond to such emails. Although I respond to an email asking for my resume, I only mention my qualifications in it. I thought that if it's not fake, the person would contact me, and I asked for contact details for future communication. It makes it less risky.
