Topic: Agencies:What is your Submittal Followup Process: e case of companies with no database. I get permission from my candidates to represent them at my client companies, but have found lately, that they are getting hired months later. Sometimes I am given a mea culpa and asked for a reduced fee. Other times I am told, we never "saw" your submittal and sourced the candidate ourselves. While I make every attempt to follow up on submittals, to me, no answer is an answer - "no interest". Plus, you can't keep asking after every submittal month after month I am thinking I need to formalize the process and have either a read receipt or a form sent with each candidate that the client returns to me. Another approach would be to send a blind candidate and if there is interest, then provide the full name and company. I hate to be this way, but after 18 years in this business, I am tired of losing fees.... How are others handling this.....…; Added by Roni Zapin at 9:49am on September 9, 2013

Comment on: Blog Post 'Firing Your Client': I didn't know Chuck but obviously Jason did. I'm sorry for the loss of your good friend JD. So to put this in perspective just picture yourself knowing your time was drawing near. It is for all of us you know. Should we spend that time (in our work lives) keeping our fingers crossed in hopes of our client calling back? Is our short time on this earth more valuable than to let a client agree to one thing - then do the exact opposite? Are you spending your day working in PARTNERSHIP with your client...I sure hope so. Is your next phone call going to be greeted with "Hey! Glad you called! We've got the offer put together and I'm sure it's gonna work!" I will not allow myself to squander whatever precious time I have left on this earth with ANYONE who lies to me, makes plans to defraud me, uses my goodwill and returns nothing and/or all the other things clients (and candidates) do that simply bleed me of my time. Time is all we've got. Spend it wisely.…; Added by Jerry Albright at 8:37am on December 11, 2008

Comment on: Topic 'Are there still gender issues on the job?': ents. http://www.ncpa.org/pub/ba/ba392/ "When women behave in the workplace as men do, the wage gap between them is small. June O'Neill, former director of the Congressional Budget Office, found that among people ages 27 to 33 who have never had a child, women's earnings approach 98 percent of men's." Lumping together genders and averaging the results is only useful in politics. Compare salary by salary, individual by individual, and you see that the difference has very little to do with a "wage gap," and everything to do with personal choices. Now we can argue that woman shouldn't have to be penalized for being able to bear children and choosing to do so, but that's not the same as saying men and women are differently compensated on the basis of sex. They are differently compensated on the basis of their choice to have children. And if you think that's rough, try to be a man who stays home with their child and returns to the workplace after 3 or 4 years. Good luck buddy!…; Added by Jim Durbin at 5:58pm on February 9, 2009
