Comment on: Blog Post 'What Would You Do?': , I forgot about the part where she sent you the arrangement, that is interesting. Obviously she liked you and appreciated you and felt some type of loyalty and concern for you and the time you spent. Therefore she doesn't sound like the type to deliberately waste your time. Although she didn't consider the relocation to be an issue I wonder if it at least played a part, when all things are fairly equal it is always easier to not have to move your family to another location and I would never underestimate that. I honestly think this is more about a counter offer from her current company. Now that she had started it just became harder for her to leave. In talking with her current employer she felt she was giving them a chance and being honest with them. They found an opportunity to make a counter offer in which case that is a dangerous situation. In this case the question is did you ask her about counteroffers from the employer where she had just begun working? If so, how deep did you get? Did you ask her, how would you actually feel leaving this employer after such a short duration? What would you do if you were offered a counter at the current employer? Anyway, not to drag it out, the only thing that matters now is that you learn what you can apply to future opportunities. I hope you will share with us again and next time during the process if possible. Maybe we can help you to save a deal! Don…; Added by Don Fraser at 5:16pm on April 15, 2014

Topic: Closed for Good, er, Bad: p for me and my daughter, then a senior in high school. Affordable airfare, a delighful and historic hotel was selected, planned-out meals and entertainment all booked and paid for in a snap, all done well ahead of time. I kept a meticulous file and double- and triple-checked the plans and confirmation numbers before our departure. No problems at the airport, no delays or issues. The hotel, upon our arrival, upgraded our room to a suite and offered us free breakfast. Several restaurant reservations fell seamlessly in line with fun entertainment plans. The trip was a fine example of proper planning and follow-thru, that is, until..., Our final meal in New York City. Reservations had been made for a special dinner at a well-known restaurant; I had prepaid - $75 each, not including the tip or any extras like alcoholic beverages or desserts. We anxiously arrived and were exposed to a highly agitated maitre'D who seemed to hate us instantly, well, as soon as I handed over my print-out with my confirmation number proving we had paid online. We were seated next to the kitchen doors, so every waiter rushed past us with a dangerously extended elbow or jostling plates. A cheap photocopied menu, with front and back printed upside down from each other I might add, was slapped on our table, with only three entrees from which "we" would be allowed to order. We were then left alone for almost forty minutes before our order was taken. The restaurant was almost empty for we had made early reservations to immediately follow a Broadway matinee. And yet, we were seated in a horrible location. The food, when it finally arrived was horrible, the service worse. We left disappointed that our trip had been seemingly spoiled by one lousy meal. I recently read that Tavern on the Green was slated to close down. After our dreadful experience, I am not surprised. My stubborn nature drove me to go ahead and leave an undeserved 25% tip, and speak briefly with a non-caring staff supervisor. An ensuing letter brought no response and I learned a valuable lesson about customer service and how to better appreciate even the least of my customers/clients. Reputation means everything in business... © by rayannethorn…; Added by Rayanne at 1:09am on December 30, 2009

Comment on: Topic 'New tools for recruiters': either. The new Contacts, do have integration with other channels. - which is what makes them a fantastic tool. You can upload your gmail contacts, yahoo, etc. Some people have integration with FB and Twitter. There are tags, locations, etc. - it just sounds you to see them on your screen? There's search as well: Also, there's no need to pay for auto-updating, since each "source" has a "refresh" data which will trigger updating. If you really want so export, you could use a tool like Outwit Hub and get some data parsing and export (a junior software engineer should be able to write some javascript code to do that). The absolutely amazing thing is that we can search across this data, integrated into linkedin by the new "contacts" by bringing in gmail and other contacts. These searches will get find lots of LI data that we couldn't find before. Systems like TalentBin, Dice.com's OpenWeb, Entelo.com, Gild.com and HiringSolved.com are not able to do anything of this caliber. The main reason is that LinkedIn will get unhappy as soon as its data is mass-scraped and is used in other businesses. All of these systems try to include "some" linkedin data - but the truth is, the best they can do is dynamically lookup using a name. They may be also trying to accumulate some public profile data through Google's index data, but they all know it's dangerous. Roni Zapin said: Thanks Irina. As I stated in my first post, I was using the predecessor to the LinkedIn Contacts which was ConnectedHQ. This service allowed you to import all of your contacts from everywhere, and then update them with LinkedIn information. You could then, tag them and export them with tags, location, company name and title. You could mail them using Mailchimp or Constant contact.. Then, LinkedIn bought them, and it became the NEW LinkedIn contacts and now you have no integration with email vendors and when you export you can only get all of your contacts (not segmented) nor with tags, location, company or title (even though you probably imported most of that information to begin with!!)... This has been one of my pet peeves for the better part of a year now... and I have yet to find a solution to this.... If anyone can help me here, please let me know... I looked at Glenn's suggestions and while they are great systems, they seem to be geared more towards medium to enterprise companies.... Looking for something reasonably priced for the small shops. I have spoken with a number of small shops that are looking for the same thing... Again, not an ATS, but a CRM - passives/contacts combined with your candidates that you can stay updated on their current company/title/location and be able to sort/search and contact them when you have a suitable opportunity... Thanks!!!!Irina Shamaeva said: @Roni, Take a close look at the new LinkedIn Contacts. They are free for all and provide this desired functionality (similar to the expensive Talent Pipeline), big time. It's just a well kept secret at this time that they do. Here are some details http://booleanstrings.com/2013/06/11/5102/Roni Zapin said: Thanks Glen. I actually pay for LinkedIn Talent whatever they call it now (it was called something else when I started and I have migrated over when they launched the new platform). I also have a Basic LinkedIn personal account where I can connect to people. You cannot merge the info between these.. so while I can get job change updates on my 1st level connections sent to me daily from my personal account; my notes, resumes and tags and ability to send inmails are on my Talent account... Plus, even though I have and continue to upload data to the Talent account, you cannot export data from there, like a mailing list or your tagged candidates. On the personal account, now, when you do an export, all you get is name and email, where in the past you had gotten location and tags.... I guess what I am saying here, is I continue to import info and can't get anything out (from linkedin) and pay for the privilege of doing so... Unless I am not seeing something here, and please if I am wrong someone let me know... Glenn, I will look at the others you mention, as I have not yet.. One vendor told me their "get around" the linkedin API is to send a note (from the person signing up for their system) to each of their contacts asking them to give permission for their service to get updates from linkedin.. Glenn Gutmacher said: Roni, it's not exactly that LinkedIn "takes away elements" to do things, but they tend to migrate the really useful functionality to their paid platform. For example, re: your wishlist item of being able to auto-update your ATS (and other) contacts when they change jobs, search them via location, etc., LinkedIn offers that at no extra charge via Talent Pipeline -- but it is functionality that's only available to those with a LinkedIn Recruiter seat (approx. $7K/year). Besides the ones you mentioned and TalentBin mentioned by Irina, also look at Dice.com's OpenWeb, Entelo.com, Gild.com and HiringSolved.com. They (and an increasing number of other vendors) are applying algorithms to consolidate proliferating social data into individual people profiles and then giving you personal folders where you can store and tag candidates, email capability, and other CRM functionality. You'll see this topic discussed more and more in upcoming industry conferences, blogs and in forums like this. I recommend you also follow people like John Turnberg (who will present on Big Data in recruiting at October 2013's www.RecruitingTrends.com conference and Dave Mendoza (who consults in this space - see www.sixdegreesfromdave.com). …; Added by Irina Shamaeva at 6:15pm on July 13, 2013
