Comment on: Blog Post 'Do You Read Cover Letters? - And Other Questions For Recruiters': rs are like any other specific tool..useful in specific times and situations, but we aren't a swiss army knife. It also helps to have a year or two of experience before you even approach a recruiter..why would a company pay one of us to deliver them an entry level person..they can get 'em for free anywhere. Question two: Hell yeah I read cover letters, so make it a good one. tell me what you want and how much money you make.,.,don't waste time telling me how good you are, that should be on the resume, expressed in terms of deals you've closed, problems you've solved, and revenue generated. You mention intangibles..those aren't important in the initial stages...If the tangibles meet the specifications of our clients, you'll have plenty of opportunity to bring out the intangibles during the interview process. Question Four: If anyone is bothered about being approached thru linkedin, they shouldn't be on there in the first place. that's what it's there for.…; Added by Thomas Patrick Chuna at 5:07pm on August 18, 2010

Comment on: Blog Post 'Video Interviews- 5 Reasons Why They'll Be The End Of Telephone Interviews': should easily begin to soar – bet on it. Our account managers are using it VERY effectively right now with our Fortune 500 clients. I stand by my assertion that recorded video interviews will never replace live interaction as an effective means to interview candidates for hire. The fact remains that "recorded interviews" allow for a candidate to prepare their answers for a seemingly successful interview while potentially not actually possessing the expertise required to succeed on the actual job. Further, recorded interviews provide no opportunity for a manager to pose follow up questions, based on initial answers given, that are a natural part of any interview process. There is no way around these limitations, and never will be. But, in an age where required technical skills continue to be more difficult to find at the level and frequency clients need, video interviews do a spectacular job of opening up the potential pool of candidates to include anyone, anywhere, without requiring them to bear the significant cost of long distance travelling to an interview when its by no means a given that they'll receive an offer.…; Added by Scott Bruman at 5:14pm on November 23, 2010
