Comment on: Blog Post 'If You Don’t Want My Advice…': rs was a chef at a prestigious winery here in California. He got laid off 6-12 months ago and has been having a tough time. A month or so ago he told me he was being considered for a position at a high end independent living facility. He said "I guess I juat wait till they make a choice" I said "you need to do something to make yourself stand out. Why don't you deliver lunch, made by you, to the office- along with recipes and a note to say thanks for considering me?" His eyes lit up and he said he was going to do it. About 2 weeks later he knocked on my door with a nice bottle of wine and a card with a copy of the recipes. He got the job. So keep at it, Amy. For incidents like these. Enjoy your Thanksgiving…; Added by Bill Schultz at 4:51pm on November 11, 2013

Comment on: Topic 'Unemployment Benefits...': belief from candidates as the job market seems to be picking up, but I had some experiences with candidates so desperate it hurt. Whenever I ask for someone's salary expectations it still starts out with "well, considering the current state of the economy..." Tina: Good idea, I think I am too nice. It IS ridiculous.…; Added by Jacqueline Bozorgi at 9:55am on November 17, 2009

Comment on: Topic 'Have any of you come across a job discription that REALLY grabbed you attention?': quick stat on the General Rock Stars opening - we've had about 30 positions up on the board in the past 12 months, and the GRS post has accounted for 9% of views on specific openings. We've had 84 applicants come in through the posting over that time, and have hired 2 of them for roles we hadn't posted yet, but were considering hiring for - effectively saving us from posting & sourcing for those positions. Ultimate recruiting goal, to my mind. I also get a ton of people applying directly to my inbox who use the Rock Star moniker as a way of breaking the ice. (And, oddly enough, my little Outlook "New Message" alert just floated up as I was typing this, and the e-mail subject is "Rock Star Wannabe". Nothing like timing, right?) Thanks again, you, umm, rock :)…; Added by Martin Burns at 2:15pm on October 10, 2007

Comment on: Topic 'Rant here: Please stop using the term "Career Seekers"....it is not accurate!': is not identifying entry-level jobs where applicants can go to get their career started. I'm not sure if it's just the PC Police influencing all this - but when someone has been gainfully employed within a "career" and they are then considering a new "job" or "position" - they are NOT a "career seeker". They have a career. They are looking to stay with the career they have established but are looking for a different position within it.…; Added by Jerry Albright at 9:03am on August 13, 2008

With millions of Americans still out of work and the jobs report improving but far from healthy, many individuals have either done so or considered going into business for themselves.

Comment on: Topic 'looking for new ATS': utions - CBIZ, MaxHire, PCR and Big Biller and am scheduled with Sendouts in the coming days. So far, MaxHire and CBIZ are the only ones I'm considering - with a lean toward CBIZ. Your best option is to set up a demo with each one to see what the features and layouts are. We use Outlook and integration is important - they all do it differently. CBIZ wins in that catagory but MaxHire has some nice integration as well. Some use a shell program that needs downloaded to the computer. Others are fully cloud based and you access them on a website. The shell doesn't bother me personally b/c you can put it on any computer and it's a fast download (only 2-3mb's). If you visit clients offices and would need access, web-based will be the way to go. Anyway, best of luck with your search and please report back with your results. ~ Eric Vecchiola …; Added by Eric Vecchiola at 9:39pm on September 17, 2012

Comment on: Blog Post 'Why Do They Always Get a Raise Right Before the Offer?': ecommend in our Torpedoing Counteroffers training: (http://skrentnyspeaks.acumentor.com/Torpedoing_Counteroffers_in_a_Competitive_Candidate_Marketplace_TD101.aspx) the fear of change is a powerful motivator for one to decide against moving and accepting the counteroffer. It is material for a separate post, and I have already scheduled to address it in the very near future. But let's be candid, isn't it nice to have this challenge to deal with again...means clients are making offers and candidates are considering them once again.…; Added by Jeff Skrentny, CERS at 3:18pm on February 2, 2010
