Thank you, Bill! Frankly, I am rather technically challenged and intimidated by it all! Perhaps, this blog will help reduce my fear of ever changing technology. I went to a marketing seminar last night in which they spoke about blogging, pod casting, adding videos to your web site, and many other things that I find overwhelming.

I will try to figure out how to get back to my profile to upload a photo. I have my photo on LinkedIn so I'm sure I can manage it here too!

Have a super weekend!

Hi Bill!

I'm just surfing the hallways here at Ning - poking my head in here and there and making so new friends. It's a little early still but I've got my cafe' mocha so things are much better.

And, thanks for the kind words about our company, Green Supply Chain.org. If you have any advice about how to make our job board a meaningful service, please share. As you can see from my profile, recruiting isn't my expertise. That's why I thought I go where the experts go - here!

http://www.greensupplychain.org

Our job board for "green jobs" is located at:

http://www.mygreencareers.org

It's just becoming functional.

Have a great morning,

Annie B., SCSP

Thanks for the comment Bill - I am a real fan of xtremerecruiting and your interviews with top billers.

I love the fact that they are all so unique - it is a great message that we can all achieve by being authentic and leveraging our strengths - we do not have to become hollow clones of someone else.

Bill - thank you for the welcome. Having been in recruiting for a number of years, I am always looking for new ways to recruit and to sharpen my skills. Sometimes the old ways are not always the best ways, especially when working with high tech individuals. We need to stay ahead of the curve or at least try to be on the curve as it is happening. I do enjoy working with other professionals and learning.

I look forward to being part of the xtremerecruiting networking group.

Hi Bill,
thanks for your invitation.
I am currently working as a Passive Recruiter looking for Junior/Semisenior Video Editors based in Poland, with advanced English skills and solid understanding of video postproduction tools and processes. I would be really thankful if you could give me some guidance or tips regarding how or where to find the right people on the Internet. I speak English, German and Spanish, but not Polish, which makes it a little bit difficult.
Passive recruiting is a new, interesting field to me. So I am open to learn as much as possible about it.
Thanks everyone in advance for your assistance!!

Regards
Natalia Sarro

Hi Bill,

Thanks for the heads-up on the other tv website. At the moment, I am just trying to reconnect to the recruiting world. I was formerly with a tpr agency and after a year away, I have joined a small co. that works in the govt contracting industry. Having been away, I will probably be lurking more at the moment, but as I get back into recruiting, will be happy to share.

Hi Bill,

Thanks for your note. I haven't seen you for quite some time....since a GAPS meeting years ago.

I have a question for you regarding this blog. Since I recruit for managers and executives within the staffing industry, is it okay for me to post searches in this blog? I don't know what the "rules" are here, and would appreciate your guidance.

All the best,
Judy Paul

Hey Bill-
just thought I'd drop you a quick note and say "hi".
Saw the write up this morning on Interbiznet about you and thought I would pay you a quick visit.

Hope all is well my friend.
