I think and hope that people are smart enough to recognize when this sort of thing comes rolling through town. Martin H.Snyder said:Looks like somebody came through here with the Bullhorn stick. FWIW, I can easily line up 15 (or 50) testimonials to swear that PCRecruiter is the greatest product ever conceived, and that if you do not use it, inevitable chemical addiction, divorce, bankruptcy, and homelessness will follow.

Comment on: Blog Post 'Not your typical Gen Y "what's in it for me?" candidate.....': sed with? Even more - should I really consider them to be hiding some deeper, darker side? I'm not buying it. But let's say I was. How should I now screen candidates for a client who is looking for someone who did well in school, has some sort of "reasonable character" and will work well with others? All this hype about recruiters identifying "cultural" fits - how is that to be done? if we are discounting achievements outside of the workplace and assuming all good points on resumes are really an attempt to cover up a sordid past of porn addiction and mischief - where are we to begin? I'm all ears ladies......…; Added by Jerry Albright at 12:10pm on October 25, 2010

Comment on: Topic 'Addiction Discussion': re it, hope it will go away. We often do not share it in our personal lives and certainly not in our professional lives...and we suffer for this, as do our relationships. I am and have been in recovery for several years and it is one of the most profound experiences of my life...I have learned more from recovery about people, culture, communication, etc. than I have from any book, class, seminar or workshop. Even thought it is this huge, powerful part of my life I often chosen to not share it with people in the past...primarily because we all know the assumptions and judgments that are attached. A lot of people are touched directly or indirectly by addiction and our relationships, our organizations and our communities will be healthier and more authentic if we get better at speaking the truth. Thank you for your wonderful post.…; Added by Joe Gerstandt at 11:26am on January 5, 2009

Topic: Besides Chocolate: eek provides. My work days don't always go as planned, but they are usually defined by a beginning and an end with a very busy and structured middle. I think it was the crunchy middle that I missed. Now don't get me wrong, a work day can certainly be filled with crisis. But for one reason or another, it is always manageable. I am able to handle the printer and it's depleting ink supply or the packet that never arrived at its intended destination. I am able to maintain my composure when speaking with supplier who refuses to remove a charge for an item never received. I am able to answer questions about passwords and invalid email addresses when a client is unable to access their social media profiles. These are all within the grasp of my manageability. Work provides the structure necessary for success, if you let it. That is a big if. Many are unable to set up enough structure and then stick to it, in order to keep their companies and careers on track. Having my calendar is front of me and a project management system in place is my idea of a work-day heaven. Imagine how ecstatic I would be if I had an assistant always telling me what to do and when to do it. Sheer heaven. The structure of the week prepares me very little for the upheaval that takes place during the weekend. I am sure there is a twelve-step program for my kind somewhere -- I sat in the top row of a dark theater during a performance on Sunday and checked emails, text messages and voicemails. Yes, I know it was Sunday. And yes, there were emails to check. A friend of mine said to me later, "You are addicted." I guess there are worse things to which I could be addicted. OK, so I missed work. Is that such a bad thing? How many people hate their jobs and the people with whom they work? I am sure the number is very high and I am glad to not be a part of that statistic. My work is my life. It makes me happy and it pays the bills - most of the time. It is satisfying and helpful - most of the time. It brings me structure and experience - all of the time. What more could an independent, self-reliant, and stubborn girl want? Well, I mean besides chocolate. by rayannethorn .…; Added by Rayanne at 3:11am on September 8, 2009
