Comment on: Topic 'MY MOUSETRAP WORKS JUST FINE!': t sure is a lot messier. Guess it depends on what one has at hand and how well we can use it. But bottom line it has to be a process that whacks the mouse. I think there is a message there somewhere but right now i'm sitting third chair helping a candidate and her attorney negotiate a divorce settlement. Believe me when i tell you that a recruiter will do almost anything to help a candidate accept a job that involves being able to relocate. I think he just took my last complicated offer that gets her out of the house loan so she can call and accept a job in about an hour. Recruiters do make great negotiators, we are not burdended by what attorneys think will fly. We just throw it out there and see if the fish will bite.…; Added by Sandra McCartt at 4:11pm on October 5, 2010

Comment on: Blog Post '7 Pitfalls of Online Recruitment from Somone who sees it Everyday Day...': ole, before I changed form being a suit to a creative ten years ago, be an Advertising Account Director who looked after many recruitment agencies advertising accounts in my time, including one of the largest recruiters in the world where we had 4 people working solely on their business. Four people! With the growth of technology however, many recruiting organisations have cu their costs to the bone by taken their advertising activity in-house. As a result you often get junior consultants giving junior support staff job descriptions to post up on a multiple job board package that's cheap as chips in the belief that the more bread you cast on the water, the more fish will bite. WRONG! The result? Masses of untargetted and poor content clogging up the web and the assumption by many consultants who don;t think their advertising through that job boards don't work.…; Added by Alasdair Murray at 8:11am on June 13, 2012

Comment on: Topic 'Future visions': ideas in them (or if you prefer, the top sitting leadership team). The article you attached speaks just to this. In reality, true leadership can appear from anywhere. The question to ask is whether the organization can accept and fund anywhere leadership. Most can't. Bush's administration couldn't because of Cheney - too old school for anything but Cold War based policies. John G. Self said:Thanks Maureen. I will look at it. I have visited the White House twice for receptions. -- years and years ago. It is extraordinary. But at times you almost feel like you are on a TV set. There was stuffed stacked outside between events, etc. We sometimes forget that it is a very busy, crammed office building and a personal residence. You can easily see how someone can get isolated there! I hope you have a great 2009. Knock it out of the park.

Comment on: Topic 'Social Media Recruiting Works? Prove It.': rds like The Ladders candidates are desperate? But if they get a candidate from linkedin they might be a sourcer or a recruiter depending on whether the candidate on linkedin is a narcissist , marketing or secretly desperate ergo; a successful recruiter is the one who can tell the difference? If that is the hypothesis are we defining ourselves and our success or lack of same by where we catch the fish instead of whether we bring home something for dinner? Take it one more step ,if a candidate is generated on Twitter or from a so called talent community where do they fall on the scale of 1 being desperate and 10 being narcissist and if someone is using twitter or setting up a talent community are they sourcers or recruiters? In my mind if i go out hunting for something for dinner tonight, i might shoot it as it ran away, find it caught in a trap or hide and wait for it to mosey by. Nobody at my house would care or even ask, unless the thing had been dead long enough that jerky was the only option to eat it.…; Added by Sandra McCartt at 11:36pm on November 3, 2010

Comment on: Topic 'Social Media Recruiting Works? Prove It.': e” for comparative analysis but NEVER in our business are things dare I say, that… “Black and White”. References to narcissists vs. desperate individuals in my response again, are meant to juxtapose opposite ends of the same spectrum (humanity pool). Only a fool would in literal terms assess all on LinkedIn as narcissists, or those who choose to post on JB’s desperate…please! But simply put and in answer to your original question “What does anyone see as the difference between people who have a profile on LinkedIn…” Professionals on LinkedIn cannot be painted with the same “broad brush” as those found on JB’s (inert prejudicial judgment). Whether it’s perception or reality, LinkedIn allows a much deeper insight into the professional then does a JB (how many connections do they have and who are they connected to, what groups are they on and what’s their standing in the group (do they participate, “did they start it?”), how succinctly have they straddled the line between “marketing”, and just “cutting and pasting a “classic” resume into their profile? Can you as a recruiter “sell” your value proposition to them, and will they buy it (connect with you), potentially opening you up to everyone they know (not just a few carefully selected references on a resume))? All this (and maybe a few I missed), help to distinguish the difference between an active participant on LinkedIn, and someone who just posts their resume on a JB. Yes it’s ultimately about their “technical” skills and fit for your position, and yes, many skilled professionals use JB’s (at present but I believe its waning (anyone out there have stats to prove or disprove my assumption?)) but to deny the importance of “social skills” (physical or logical) is folly in today’s socially-hyper networked society. I readily grant, perhaps in some industries and at some levels it doesn’t matter as much, but one would have to be sensory inept to not see the explosion of social networking globally and frankly, candidates who “don’t get it”, don’t score highly with the clients I serve. And, can my clients find them on LinkedIn, sure they can (and some do), but can they do the 29 other things it takes to “catch the fish” including “close them”… That’s why they keep me around :) If you’re looking for dramatic differences (with a capital “D”) between candidates available on each platform, maybe not, but as recruiters, we live in the land of “subtitle” differences which for many in our business, is all it takes. Wonderful post Sandra! You’re inspiring us all to THINK! (ouch!) Sandra McCartt said:Put some thought into that one didn't you Nick.Are you saying that if a person gets a candidate from a job board they are a sourcer not a recruiter because all job board candidates even the paid boards like The Ladders candidates are desperate?
