Wow, I have learned so much already and connected with some very interesting and knowledgeable members.

Thanks for your efforts to provide a great resource.

Thanks for all the info and tips! Still trying to figure out how to change the layout and info...but I will get there! If I can create other pages, I can do this!

Funny you should mention that about John! He was on the green team... the black team ended up beating his team in the TUG O' WAR to win the Accololympics! John was probably off behind a trying consoling himself! I will let him know you say hello - he is a great guy! Look forward to connecting with you more and more in the days ahead!

Thanks for the comment -- and for the help!! I just jumped into the blogging pool this morning, and am really enjoying this community. You do a great job of encouraging connection.

Thanks much - I am looking forward to it!

This is a group I started just a few months ago to help recruiters meet F2F with other recruiters in their virtual network. Check it out.

www.NetworkedRecruiter.com is a destination dedicated to expanding your professional network, facilitating career advancement, and promoting the collective sharing of best practices within the field of professional recruiting. By the end of 2008, the Networked Recruiter will be hosting free recruiter networking events in 85 different cities across the United States in addition to expanding into Europe, Canada, Australia, and across Asia.

Slouch, hey hook me up - how do I RSS feed this to my blog or the one I write for Fast Company?

Hey, btw, this site acts oddly with loading pages on both my IE, Opera, and Firefox . . . do you hear that often?

Thanks, Slouch - actually, I was hoping to pipe here instead of vice-versa, but I'm open to whatever. I just learned via the "Do you deserve your high school diploma" quiz on Facebook that I scored an 80%, barely passing. Wow :) Delete Comment

Cool, will do. I just learned that I'm "boderline mentally retarded" through the Facebook 'verbal IQ test', so I better quit while I'm ahead.

Hi Jason- Your site is awesome! Just got to San diego yesterday- looking forward to seeing you tomorrow

Nice work for a slouch, looking good so far.

Thanks,

Eric

Dude. I out lasted you in poker! Next year I taking you out personally.

Hi Slouch,

Wishes.

First of all I would like to thank you for all your sincere effort by bringing all the Recruiter's under the same roof with this Recruiting Blog.

Let me invite you to pay a visit to my profile as well and to connect to my network on Recruiting Blogs.

I'm always open for professional networking especially in IT Staffing.

Some background on what I do.....

Technology Recruiter work with Direct Clients & Tier-I Vendor's for Temp(Contract) Positions.

I am looking at gaining assistance from connections who can supply me any Technology positions from their Direct Clients.

If I can ever be of assistance to you, please don't hesitate to contact me directly.

There may not be any immediate need or opportunity for now for us to work together but I hope there will be one in the future, be it business or career opportunity.

I am sure we will find mutual benefit by being connected directly which will also enlarge both of our views of the greater Recruiting Blogs network.

I am looking forward to welcome you as my connection.

Let us start our relationship with my Firm Air Handshake.

Thanks in Advance.

Best Wishes,
Gopi.

Souch, congrats on the charity raisings. That's good stuff. Hey, let me know something: is it better here to post in the 'forum' or in our blog? I already have a blog that my clients go to (sorry, but fellow recruiters don't pay the bills if you know what I mean!), but I can't RSS the posts over to here. Any thoughts?
P.S. One more question: the people on the featured area (top) of the page each day are the same we always see . . . I mean, they're cool, but where's the innovation and new blood? I'm burnt out on the same old stale-toast value props I see, meaning repetitive non-differentiated sales pitches and the same people competing in the same old shark-infested waters of "me-too" products. I'm just one person, but I'm with Einstein that "We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them." Thoughts?

Sounds great, Slouch - get some sleep and drink a Red Bull with some Goody's headache powder :)
I'm hoping that some will see my question from a point of positivity - it's easy to think 'new ideas' (i.e. the bad word, "change") is a challenge to the 'old-guard', but I don't mean it that way. Perhaps a little spinkle of new (on top of the old) would be cool . . . I mean, of course not too much content from what seems like it's coming from a Mars Rover, but maybe half way (like a moon trip - not quite Mars, but a little bit out there so as to stimulate thought) :)

I heard about the poker debacle - we need to get Russ out to ERE again, just to show people that Zoom's a poker machine :)

that, or we hire a ringer. wonder if phil ivey has any product management chops...

Thanks for the leads! :)

Sweet! One of many highlights of the conference this week. Thank you again for everything!

That was hilarious! I do see the similarities:)

Nice to see you last week at the show. Thanks for helping raise money for the ERE Foundation again.

Slouch. .... WOW. Unbelievable numbers. Keep on keep'n on.

Hey Slouch, what is the cost for advertising on recruitingblogs.com?

(925)831-2900, I have appointments at 12:30 and 3:30 PST, but the rest of my day is free.

you're in Toronto? I thought you were in the US?

and you started this site? I'm surprised there is so much US content in that case...

Jason, I just spoke to Anna Brekka about the Kennedy Conference, and she asked I speak with you to let you know some additional details. Can you send me your e-mail address or phone number, and I can give you a call. Thanks!

thanks - i sent it.

Hey Slouch! Your band is GREAT!

Thanks -I appreciate the support

Hey, the sign up link for the Webinar does not work for me.

It is me. Late I came, but still I came.

For sure! I'm very much looking forward to it...Checked out the video of your band last week - You guys sound great!!

Hey Slouch,

Thanks for the add, any advise or assistance for Recruiting areas of Dallas and Chicago.
I look forward to networking with you.

Hi Slouch -

Great Site mate. Way to go........Ajay

Just returned from a Pinnacle meeting last week in Marina Del Ray, CA. It was awesome!

Congrats on making it to 6,000...So exciting, and so deserved! I enjoy this site and can't wait to meet you guys all in person at Kennedy.

I'm in the office all day today if you get around to calling, I'll be here. It's not anything urgent, just wanted to get your advice on the items I sent you in the message.

Again - congrats and soon we'll be doubling those numbers.....Kristi

Hey Slouch,

Just wanted to say thank you for creating a very useful networking site. Congratulations on your success. It has inspired me to create a Video Resume service, www.uBoast.com . We film, edit, and host video resumes for students. If you feel there is any advice that you could bestow upon me it would be highly appreciated. Thanks.

Thank-you for the invite, this os a fantastic networking site.

Ha! Thanks. Note to self, Look at camera. Shut blinds. Don't end with a mumbled oblique reference to an unexplained occurrence :-) It IS a heck of a camera though.. I might go learn how to use it...

Good to hear from you. Still pondering that...would love to go, but time & money...

Alan
