STREAMLINE JOB BANKS

People who are looking for jobs do not really see the clarity when filling up the application forms.They are initially marketing themselves in terms of their resume/ cv which contain their personal details and important contact details by the employers.

Of late, the use of Whatsapp and other social media applications have made it even easier for the applicants to apply for jobs. But the question is how safe the data and personal contacts are in the hands of the apps operators and employers?

The applicants do not need to fill up so many forms actually but the company policies and the agency services dictate them to do so, failing which their applications will never be processed.

To apply online is one of the favourite methods to majority of employers nowadays. They would have access to the resume banks of all the applicants. The question is how the applicants may contact the Employer and vice versa.

The advent of bill collection agencies “off-side” of the banking systems and intelligence units assigned by the banking system and their associates have made it even harder for the applicants to apply for jobs they really hopeful for. 

Therefore there is a need for the Government to centralise the companies dealing with bill collections because they are seriously uncontrollable and in most cases they can do anything like intruding the privacy of people in the workplace and making cold calls and becoming scammers in the name of bill collectors. 

The credit agencies also are at risk because they are buying and selling (trading) credit records and personal details which are private and confidential. When those records fall to the wrong organisations, the detrimental effects would be catastrophic.

The RESUME/ CV BANK that we have now is being managed by many companies (registered and not registered) which do not even stand strong in their security and financial management too. They just want to recoup any commissions or profits from those resume banks. 

It is vital for the government agencies and also companies to streamline a standardised resume/ cv bank because we do not want the database containing details of all applicants to be manipulated by unscrupulous parties especially bastard bankers and Telcos which have already in the last decade contributed to severe effects to the public at large such as irresponsible re-possession of cars and looting of properties.

There are occasions of unreported assaults made by the bill collectors and intrusions to the personal property and also manipulation of assets such as cars belonging to people who are really in need of cars. 

Bastard scammers are everywhere. But what have we done to combat those bastards? Ah Long Berlesen now has got new name like Perkhidmatan Kredit Komuniti which is actually a facade to a more subtle name for them and you can see how they threaten their clients like holding their debit card and threatening the lives of the borrowers who are already in difficulties when they have to re-pay annoying and bloodsucking interests.

The mainstream banks are silent regarding this because they themselves are like leeches sometimes, for e.g charging extravagant monthly financial charges to credit card loans. And they claim themselves as the hero in corporate social responsibility (CSR) statements and some of them sponsored porridge (bubur lambuk) during the month of Ramadhan - ironic as it seems to be.

To apply for a job nowadays, one has to get the blessing from one of those bastard banks and scammers. This must stop because nobody wants to be indebted on daily basis out of his/ her difficulties. Without a synchronised system of transparency and trustworthy in the banking system and combatting those bastard bill collectors, nobody will gain anything.
