Comment on: Topic 'Challenge My Ideal. C'mon, I Dare you.': the ugly. At several points in the the Wednesday Wisdom exchange this week I wondered if (as the originator of the post) I should remind folks that we were there to exchange ideas and not daggers, but I decided to let the community police itself to see what would happen. Lo and behold, the discussion continues this morning on a relatively clear thread of intelligent discussion, which makes me very happy. :)) I'm not sure what is the "right" way to behave in public discussions, other than to follow my own inner compass (as you suggest that you do, too). Nice to know that you're out there reading, even if you choose not to participate as frequently - I truly enjoy how you think about discussion topics and present your views. Don't disappear completely!…; Added by Claudia Faust at 10:47am on June 26, 2009

Comment on: Blog Post 'The Cost of (Personal) Social Media Accounts': can do the job; because usually after a month the company knows how much use they can get out of you. Because of the uneasy job market where no one is 100% protected (even in a union, although members are tougher to let go), I think it is best for each employee goes in 'eyes open' and that they have done their due diligence on the company before accepting the job offer. The most popular words when weeding out non-productive employees seems to be 'Downsizing' or 'reorganization of talent' or 'new employment structure'. I suggest anyone that is reading this start reviewing their profiles, and make yourself as professional in print as you wish to be seen in person. Alot can be said/ found out about a candidate before the first meeting.…; Added by Daniel J Smith at 4:51pm on January 6, 2012

Comment on: Topic 'Assistance Needed-Please': Area HR Manager for the last 6 out of the Supply Chain Soultions Atlanta headquarters. Dumb question for you or anyone reading this. Are there actual recruiters that specialize in placing HR people? It just occured to me that I have no idea. Thanks all for listening to my rant. I think this might be harder on me than him. :) Sandra McCartt said: @Marnie, there is an old addage that one should never play bridge or mixed doubles with their spouse if they want to live to see the sun come up. Being unemployed for the first time in 20 years is an ego buster for anybody and even more so for a male of the species who feels it is up to him to be the head of the household. I would suggest that you might just email him some links to some good information on writing cover letters, tailoring resumes and other job search techniques. It's also difficult for a family member to try and help in a job search particularly when it's a spouse or an adult child. I would suggest telling him that he might need to speak with a recruiter who works in his field. If you work with other recruiters in your office or know other recuriters in your area that you feel are good. Suggest to him that he contact them as it might be better for him to work with someone not related. then keep your mouth shut until he asks you for your opinion. Advice asked for from a family member is always more well received than that offered unsolicited in a "Here is what you need to do manner". If he is resistant to working with any recruiter just sit back and bite your tongue and let him flop around with it until he asks for your help. It may take a minute but it beats putting more stress on an already stressful situation. Who knows he may be able to do it himself and announce to you that he has found another job. Sometimes that is important. …; Added by Marnie W. Katz at 10:32am on April 30, 2012

Topic: Long time reader... first time poster. :): management. The information from RBC has been amazing as well as enlightening. :) My question is which industry would you suggest I focus my energies? I have contacts in Health care, Accounting, Sales and Oil & Gas companies. I would love to focus my energies to file CFO level positions at an Oil and Gas hospital, but I don't think that is realistic. hahaha Health care was going to be my focus because I have more contacts in that industry than the other ones, but I keep reading the placement process is extremely long and drawn out. Maybe it should be a totally different industry. I am not afraid to start fresh and develop a book of business from scratch. Sales and Marketing has been my life for the last 15 years, specifically dialing for dollars. Picking up the phone and developing business will be fun... can't wait to get through the 1st 30 "NOT INTERESTED" people, so I can get to that hiring manager that is tired of the candidates HR continues to send and is ready for an outside solution. :) My goal (crazy at it sounds) is to be a 3rd party recruiter based at home. Not working for an agency will take more time and effort, but this isn't a whim and I'm determined to do the right things and develop a rewarding business for many, many years. Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks and enjoy your day! Dave …; Added by David Parkhouse at 12:41am on August 17, 2012
