  • Deborah Denman

    Thank you for your reply. My email address is: ddenman@c21rg.net I am very excited about this online networking group.
  • Jay Perreault {DCTechRecruiter}

    Paul,

    I had seen a message that you had sent to another user. Please sign me up for option D. Feel free to ping me at DCTechRecruiter@yahoo.com.

    How do I know if someone I am speaking with is a good referral for you? Please tell me a bit about yourself and your line of business.

    I have been involved in recruitment since the fall of 2000 having enjoyed recruiting for multiple disciplines. I believe that the team is only as strong as the newest member so the idea of knowledge transfer is mandatory for proper succession planning. I have a proven track record which can assist you or your organization with this. I have been able to adapt to the following models: contract, contract to hire, corporate as well as long term consultancy arrangements for hard to find and sought after skill sets through out the Washington DC market as well as for the national basis for a select few industries. Please feel free to utilize me as a trusted resource.

    If you are aware of top IT talent who might be looking for long term consultancy engagements or direct hire opportunities, please feel free to help point them in my direction. Feel free to share my contact information of Jay Perreault, 703-262-5663. What type of networking events do you attend?

    Thanks- it’s good to know you,

    Jay
  • Jim Burns

    Hey Paul,

    Thanks for the invite and the options. Much appreciated. I struggle with which option to choose. On one hand, I'd like make as many relevant contacts as possible - with the key word being "relevant". I'm fairly new to LinkedIn and want to make sure that I am getting the most out of the site.

    Do you have any recommendations about which option typically works best?

    Thanks again.

    I would have been at the Big 12 game had Tech made it - but alas we didn't. OU - BLAH. That is all I can say about that. We had a great season though and I am excited - I am hoping that we go to the Cotton Bowl so I can see them play after the new year!

    Phoenix should be a nice change from the cold of MN. :) I already have my tickets secured for the Cotton Bowl and it should be a good matchup. We will see!
