Comment on: Blog Post 'Digging Into RecruitingBlogs.com v1.10': velopment of talent pipelines (building of community) is a fluid and lengthy process . . . much more than a 1-off list of names from a telephone-name-scrubber or off of Spoke/Jigsaw, etc. The issue here is one of investment versus transaction - purchasing a list, paying a search fee (or an employee referral) is a transaction . . . while building community and/or developing talent pipelines is an investment.
