Comment on: Blog Post 'Does This Make Me Look Fat? And Other Questions You Don’t Want To Answer': ou simply can't touch it. The only recourse is when you submit your reports at the end of the month or whatever to management to include how an excellent and qualified candidate was rejected for not being stylish.

Comment on: Blog Post 'Why Counter Offers Are Good (except for headhunters)': be ideal if she could just go to her boss, have a heart to heart conversation, work things out, and fix the situation. In today's world her company may have shown her the door for being a malcontent and she'd be out of a job having to pay her bills with no income--poor position to be in looking for your next job. So the time to fix the problem is with an offer. Candidates like her are prepared to leave accepting the offer if their situations can't be fixed. They don't know if their environment is repairable, or not. And often they assume the situation can't be fixed, receive an offer giving notice, only to find out the company resolves the situation in the person's best interests. As recruiters we have to be prepared for anything. In good faith a candidate could be ready to leave the company only to find out the company doesn't want them to leave. You have to expect a candidate, company, family member, neighbor, and anyone to act in their own interests or you're going to continuously be blindsided and disappointed going forward.…; Added by bill josephson at 12:09pm on November 18, 2011

Comment on: Topic 'A Story That Needs to be Told - Part I': f 2010 related to a posting by Maureen Sharib entitled "Disparity of Influence. I can't do much about this situation but i can at least tell this young woman's story. I will see that she finds another job and moves forward with as little scar tissues as possible. From what i know of this situation, it is my opinion that this woman is a sick pig. And people wonder why there are not more women in management.…; Added by Sandra McCartt at 7:47pm on June 11, 2011

Comment on: Topic 'Wednesday Wisdom: Inquiring Minds Want to Know': ith our boss, letting her know that she wasn't ready to talk about it with the rest of us yet. But she gave her permission for us to know her situation. So our boss filled us in. We understood why our friend was not her usual self and were able to give her the time she needed to be more open. This worked well for all of us and allowed us to be supportive during this major life transition.…; Added by Jan Schmidt at 11:52am on August 19, 2009

Comment on: Topic 'How to deal with a client who refuses to pay the placement fees??': e client, in a non-threatening way (if you both have not gotten to a hostile place yet with this issue) that you will be informing this candidate of the current situation and that could cost them a hire. They know they are pulling one over on you since they never knew about this candidate's resume being submitted beforehand by an internal employee. They have spent time, as well as you have, in qualifying this candidate and moving on an offer. They are not going to want to lose that. If they care about hiring this person, they will have a reaction to you having to inform your client(candidate) of this situation. It is the professional thing to do as you are working on their behalf to secure them a position with a good company. The client will at least realize then that you will not go away quietly by letting them steal your candidate. Best of luck, do let us know the outcome.
