Topic: How to deal with awesome resume overload?: y own clients. There is nothing more frustrating than receiving a great resume and having nowhere to send the candidate out, is there?! I have explored some options such as RockStar recruitnig and Hireability but am not impressed at all with these services. I am also not interested services like Dayak or Bountyjobs. I would like to find a great place where I can upload resumes with candidate's contact info stripped out just so I can showcase the resume to recruiters for splits or hiring managers for direct hires. I also need it to be a place where the resumes I upload can be found by others via search engines. Not a walled garden community where only logged in members can see my resume showcase. Do any web services like this exist? Would anybody else be interested in such a service? Thanks. Kevin.…; Added by Kevin Jenkins at 10:25am on October 9, 2008

Topic: Funding boost to create 700 Scottish jobs: in time to benefit from an investment boost for research projects in the country. More than 700 jobs are to be created in research centres north of the border thanks to a £9.3 million cash injection from the European Regional Development Fund, reports the Scotsman. First Minister Alex Salmond made the announcement, revealing that Scottish universities, including Aberdeen, Edinburgh and Napier, are among the beneficiaries of the funding. He is quoted by the newspaper as saying that it is vital for Scottish academics and entrepreneurs to "have access to support, particularly in this challenging economic climate". This backing can help them "stay at the forefront of their fields, realise their potential, seize opportunities, expand, invest and contribute to sustainable economic growth", he added. Recruitment consultants were recently advised by a peer to get into a habit of only handling things once to maximise their time.…; Added by Stewart Roberts to Total Back Office Solutions Limited at 7:26am on April 21, 2010

Comment on: Topic 'Wednesday Wisdom: Do you Tattoo?': ised... I'll reiterate for those who believe every comment is an opportunity to "prove" one's mettle as a "recruiting expert" that diversity is one of the foundational tenets of our profession. How many self-serving hiring managers will wave off a great person for reasons that when uncovered scream of some form of discrimination? Granted, the CRA in its purest form is about attributes or values that one has no control over - although many would say that religion, among other variables - is a choice. The word "expression" is frequently used as in "religious expression"; I can make a strong argument - although others simply won't have it - that my tats are an expression of some form and anyone negating my candidacy because of the tats is practicing discrimination. Yet how many companies recruit this way in the looming shadow of their company bragging about their diversity policy? Perhaps asking about a company's diversity policy ahead of time is one way to start.…; Added by Steve Levy at 8:55am on June 26, 2009

Comment on: Blog Post 'Why you should never “low ball” an offer in Talent Acquisition': y would see the benefits and the power of coming in at the right price point. And as you said, that price point should be established in the very first introduction/submittal of that candidate. The "benefits" (if they exist) of coming in low are so short-lived and short-sighted. Many hiring managers will quickly point out the apparent self-serving conflict of interest when recruiters make this point, but human nature says otherwise and is on our side of this argument. Don't start the relationship off on a note of resentment or a feeling that the new employee is not valued...and certainly don't do that over what sometimes amounts to a few bucks a week or a month in the grand scheme of things. Use moral persuasion and a big-picture perspective to navigate your clients around this penny-wise-and-pound-foolish trap.…; Added by Christopher Perez at 11:16am on November 3, 2011
