Hiring, It surely a hard thing for start-ups! In a start-up, what you have is a small team, limited resources which you have to convert to something good & big with the time; and the time flies like that Jet in the sky! Entreprenuership is hard because of involved unpredictbility, this unpredictibility makes it risky affair for many people out there.

Most of my friends work in technology-fims all across the town. I often meet people, lot of people who always say that apart from their regular work they want to start something of their own, some of them are pretty tuned with their “what they’re doing” in their office, most of them don’t have to do anything seriously with their “whatever they’re doing”, they’re just used to the system,  they’re just happy with whatever they’re earning as their salary at the end of month. Last couple of months most people whom I met reply… “I am on the bench dude! No work at all… I want to do something extra, but you know the tubeligh is not bulbing!” …

Rediculous senseless chain-mails & FWD mails are their mode of communication. For example, my former room mates… every night when I used to see them, they were still discussing about the shitty chain-mails they have… some of them only do this stuff and pass the whole day! Sure, they might have good skills and they can actually code… they looked like programmed monkeys by the corporate culture! May be this is state of all talent-pool we have in the Indian tech-industry; most of them are used to the system.

That sucks, sucks really big time!

It’s been great support from all of you… and surely it’s been a roller-coaster journey since we started. Company is moving smoothly, we’re kind of a “brand” now, we’re in the news, in the media and it is simply rocking!… Traffic on the portal is like that graph will never come down, people are just loving the service…

As most of you know, till now I am the single tech-geek around here… I guess, this is the time for me to move-up & release myself from day-to-day development activities as I have other roles to play, mostly on the tech-managerial side. 

Now, I am looking to in-house technical stuff and make a technical team in my company.

Mainly, I am looking for a special breed of technologists, which rarely exist in the tech-industry, even if it exist… it is hard to find such people with mix of both tech & entrepreneurial aspirations.

According to the latest issue of “Outlook Business” magazine, the healthcare services in India’s private hospitals is getting world class. However, the customer service at the same private hospitals is not able to catch up with the rapid developments in the infrastructure of the hospital. The patients are happy with the patient care but they are still unhappy with the quality of customer care they get. Waiting in the queue, doctor not available on time, payment hassles etc.

A new trend that is coming up in this eco-system of traditional healthcare delivery through Hospitals / Clinics is “Online Healthcare”. The doctors and hospitals can look at this as a channel that filters the patients and then forwards them to the doctors and hospitals for treatment.

Online Healthcare includes a few important aspects as mentioned below. At the core of the system is a central web-site or portal.

• It provides an access to doctor online for Live Chat. The patients can use the Internet and chat with the doctor. The doctors can provide medical advice to handle the current situation and then refer the patient to the nearest hospital and doctor in their locality. Doctors also provide answers for the common medical queries.

• It provides patient generated reviews about the hospitals and doctors and also the contact details of the doctors and hospitals.

• It provides a Forum where people of similar health problems can discuss with each other.

• The website also provides content in the form of answers to common queries, which the patients might have.

• The website has common health tools and price listings for the common medical procedures in hospitals.

• Patients can buy medicine over the Internet and it will be delivered to their home.

Such trend is already popular in the USA and Europe. Many websites like WebMD is widely used worldwide. In India, HealthcareMagic has recently started this service and has already referred hundreds of patients for OPD and IPD procedures in Bangalore.
