Q33: I am unable to load pages on the site.
A: If pages are not loading, or only partially loading, it may help to
clear your Web cache or Temporary Internet Files. Web browsers store
information on your hard drive so that the next time you visit a page the
browser can pull this information off your hard drive, which makes the page
load faster after your first visit. Most browsers, by default, check a page
only once per day or session for updates, and never again. Depending on which
browser you have and which version you have, this option could be anywhere in
your "Options" or "Preferences." You want to purge/empty
your cache. This can be done by clicking on a button located in the cache
options screen. It is sometimes labeled "Purge (or "Empty" or
"Clear") Temporary Internet Files." For optimum site
performance, we recommend using the latest version of your browser, and that
it be configured to accept cookies and scripting (JavaScript, ActiveX, etc.).

from the site.
A: Generally, this problem will become apparent to our technical staff and
will be corrected within minutes. Wait a few minutes and try again. Please
contact us if the problem persists.
Q35: I registered myself as a Member and put my Ad, but your system didn’t recognize me. Why it is so?
Actually speaking, the system fails to recognize any individual as our member mainly due to any one of the following reasons:
· If the candidate has deleted his/her Ad from the system
· If the email address being used to log in the account is different from the one that was entered to our system at the time of placing the CV
· If wrong Ad Id is used
· If the Ad Id is used with out its prefix i.e. ‘emp’ or ‘cv’
· If space is left either at the start or at the end of writing the email address or Ad Id in the ‘Members Only’ area on the home page of our site
We are sure that our system will recognize you as a member if any of the above mentioned errors don’t occur. However, if you still face any problem, you are always welcome to write to us on hrd@kalpoint.com. We will further investigate into your problem, if there is any.
Q36: I received an alert mail from your network regarding new matches found for me. But when I logged in, I didn’t find any match. Why?
We are really pleased to tell you that our e-employment services are gaining great confidence of the employers day by day and they keep on visiting our network frequently as per their requirements. Sometimes it so happens that a certain employer comes to our network, places the Job Ad and searches the candidates according to the specifications at the same time if there is an urgent need of the candidate. As soon as the Ad is placed, our system generates an automated email to inform you if the placed job matches your qualification. On the other hand, since the employer finds his/her suitable match readily from our data bank, the employer deletes the Ad at the same time from the system and thus there remains no match for you when you log in. So, when you will log in, you may not find any match despite of the alert mail.
Q37: How many companies does your network cover?
A: As stated before we provide free services and our network is used by

basis?
Ans: Yes people from all walks of life place their Ads in our network, which

Q40: How can you afford to keep your website up and
running? If we don't pay you, who does?
A: Actually, we're glad you asked --- it shows that you understand that it
does cost to run and maintain a website! The employers help to cover the costs
of operating. They do so because it is yet another form of advertising, and
relatively inexpensive at that!
Q41: How can I contact a specific company or executive?

submit? How much is my information secure on your site?
A: Yes. The data that you submit to the system is blinded (the contact
information will not be able to be viewed). Each candidate and job order that
you submit will be assigned a unique identifying number, and only you will be
able to modify any information regarding your own candidates and job orders
(such as updating contact information), and only you will be able to delete
your own candidates and job orders from the Network. All data within the
