Facebook-Style Job Hunting with Doostang
I'm set, next week, to interview the founders of Doostang, a new invitation-only job-networking service. Sounds like a pretty smart idea: they're using the Facebook approach of populating the site with alumni of well-known schools, whom they empower to hunt for jobs and candidates using a six-degrees-of-separation model. Members are permitted to invite friends to join the network, so eventually, the whole world will get to play. Sounds like an idea someone should immediately clone and start signing up alumni of big Chinese, Indian, Russian technical universities.
