Comment on: Blog Post 'LinkedIn, Twitter, Social Networking - RECRUITING is SPAM': ask. Tomorrow, I have a post coming out on FistfulofTalent.com titled something along the lines of, "The Recruiting Community: If You Build It, They Will Come (And They'll Be Engaged, Too!)" Of course, I'm kidding . . . because I ask myself what truly defines 'engagement'? Just because someone creates a profile, uploads a pic of their pet (along with their favorite song), and answers a discussion post, doesn't mean they're necessarily 'engaged'. However, we too often see 'engagement' as an assumption of all community members . . . In many cases, we also try to cover up the fact that our 'community' exists to reduce our time-to-perfect-candidate by posting about things non job-related. Anything to drum up conversation, right? Well, to the contrary, it's this useless conversation that dilutes the value of the recruiting community we're building. We'd be better off with honesty by staying true to the fact that our community exists for mutually beneficial gain. While the shortest path between two points is indeed a straight line, our market has also been taught that the shortest path to placement is an online community. Unfortunately, it's not that simple :) Worth a thought. Again, great post and sorry for being so late to the party :)…; Added by Joshua Letourneau at 4:02pm on March 23, 2009

Comment on: Blog Post 'CareerBuilder Says - Social Networking Shall Not Be Cheap': emble in Excel, and, by the way, they are going to charge $150K for it? They are not building what they purport to build. Their proposed solution is more appropriately an opt-in list or a permission E-mail marketing list, but it definitely is not a Talent Community. A true Community facilitates collaboration and sharing of information. It involves people conversing and working together to solve problems, meet goals, share opinions, and ideas. This social engagement makes people feel included and compelled to contribute positively to the betterment of the community. A social Talent Community is a network of candidates, contacts, alumni, employees and relevant job seekers that facilitates two-way communication between the recruiting professional and the candidate or other connection. They key phrase here is "contribute positively to the betterment of the community." Please reply to this post and tell us all that you were just being facetious.…; Added by Anthony M.
