Comment on: Blog Post 'So, you want to be a recruiter?': NG other than that, is laughable. Companies such as those are as American as apple pie, pseudo-puritan ethos, and invading oil producing countries under UN resolutions. I do agree that the face, identity, philosophies, etc. of the profession called "Recruiter" should be changed for the "talent procurement, candidate/client focused, customer service" side of the profession-- to distinguish from the juggernaut-esque, industrial staffing conglomerates. Maybe a name change is in order-- Talent Consultant, Procurement Specialist, Position Coordinator, Placer, Replentor, .... hmmm.... how about "Pundit Matriculator"--- ok, that's it--- I am no longer a recruiter by trade or profession any longer, I'm officially a professional Senior Pundit Matriculator, (or PuMa for short), utilizing full Matrics principles and procedures in a "professional induction or conscriptive employment environment", in compliance with state and federal "Body Politic" regulations governing "satisfactory human experience" in the workplace. Hmmm.... not bad, huh? I think I'll put that on my business card.…; Added by Mat von Kroeker at 12:45pm on June 13, 2011

Comment on: Blog Post 'INTERVIEWING REQUIRES A SMILE BEHIND A SMILE, OR IS IT A POKER FACE THAT WORKS…': n the business of recruiting I've found the smile to be a powerful bridge-builder for friendly and even candid conversations. So I always use it and welcome it from candidates I interview. It is the universal body language of: "Welcome" and "How are you?"...and, "I hope well..." And, "I am actually listening to you because I care about what we're discussing." Use it or lose it--the SMILE, as an important piece of the human condition, particularly in the realm of communications. Going the other way, with the more formal "poker face" that essentially gives no signal of warmth, or even that I'm listening--I feel will work against an interviewer. It'll make the interviewee ill-at-ease in the job interview setting. And unfortunately some interviewers want the exact condition in the job interview. Your thoughts? …; Added by Valentino Martinez at 11:13am on July 2, 2011

Comment on: Blog Post 'Discrimination: Tattoos and Body Modification Challenge to Business Casual and…': nceptions lead our judgement of people too much. This is easier for us in the health and social care sector, because our client and candidate base is less corporate and more diverse. I personally am not a fan of body piercing, tattoos or similar fashion statements. However, in truth, to judge someone based on these factors is just one step farther from sexism, racism and ageism. I do agree, though, that people are judged an all of these factors all the time. In the UK, in recruitment as in other areas of business, we are compelled by European law not to take such factors into account when recruiting. This is changing people's pre-conceptions slowly, but not entirely. Dan Midwinter Director, Completely Care Ltd http://www.completelycare.co.uk…; Added by Dan Midwinter at 8:24am on June 19, 2014
