Comment on: Blog Post 'How Marriott Hotels is Beating Facebook at Their Own Game in Social Recruiting': d the world starting in 2010. (We are the "outside consultants" you reference.) The idea for "My Marriott Hotel" came from hearing the same story in almost every market. Folks we spoke to would say, "I came to the big city to find work. I moved in with friends or family, then started networking." Where did they network? Facebook, LinkedIn, the usual suspects. And when they weren't networking, what did they do? Played games. Lots of them. So that was one important piece of the puzzle. The other piece came to light on the last stop of the research trip. Looking out at Juhu Beach from the lovely JW Marriott in Mumbai, I saw a group of people on the beach just looking at the hotel. I asked a girl who'd been in an earlier focus group what they were doing and she said, dismissively, "oh, they're just staring at this place because they don't know what goes on here." That didn't make sense, so I went down to the beach to interview these folks. I walked out the back doors of the hotel, past the pool, around a corner. I was sure there must be a beach exit somewhere. I found it, but it was a surprise. I had to get a badge, sign out, and be escorted down a set of stairs past a blast door. Outside the door, a small group of Indian Army soldiers were set up behind sand bags, guarding the hotel. And it suddenly dawned on me that what looked to me like a hotel looked to most everyone else like a fortress.That wasn't what Marriott wanted, of course. But with the recent terror incidents at the Taj in Mumbai and other hotels less recently, they couldn't be too careful. So it made great sense to solve the issue of access with a game. Marriott loved it, got great media response, and has continued to innovate in game development. The "belong"campaign also emerged from workforce insight. I can't offer details on this campaign--they're proprietary--but I can tell you that the core ideas emerged from and were validated around the world-and that it's the most effective employer brand campaign in hospitality by miles. I'm really proud of the team at Evviva Brands who did the research behind the work and did the game and creative development you've cited here. And of the fantastic partnership we've enjoyed with Marriott over the past several years. Best, David…; Added by David Kippen at 11:33pm on August 5, 2013

Comment on: Blog Post 'The Beginning of a New Recruiting Industry?': ster/CB/Dice paid space that was out there. I don't think TPR's even caught onto the space until much later in the game. I think at THAT time LinkedIn realized their value and started charging for that model. And TPR's wouldn't want to have another paid service either and with pricepoints very similar to the monster model I think it will be a tough sell especially considering that Monster candidate are truly looking for work, which LI's are looking primarily to network. As for your statement about TPR's, I've met just as many ingenious Independent Recruiters as I have TPR's, so to mass generalize especially in a forum populated by both is will raise some ire.…; Added by Nate Fischer at 9:36am on September 27, 2011
