Topic: Recruiting and Stochastic Processes: ould allow one to 'hit' a target. Perhaps I oversimplify, and it would be better to look at the issue conversely, such that if I aim at a target, I will "probably" be likely to hit it. The music of Iannis Xenakis was based largely on statistics (i.e. probability), and the ancient tradition of sending messages via drums is important to remember. Xenakis was a Chemical Engineer/Architect/Mathematician/Composer -- one of the greatest composers of the 20th century. His work "Rebonds" focuses on irregular (stochastic) rhythms which highly resemble the behavior of individual bubbles of solutions boiling up through 'separation trays' (column distillation).

Comment on: Topic 'Threats of Tortuous Interference': onable for you to have responded in kind. As an employer, I've had to make this call to agencies that show signs of "raiding" e.g. repeated calls. Personally I could care less, as I view it the company's responsibility to have an environment where employees aren't interested in such calls, but of course I need to comply with my firm's wishes. A phone call to the agency is usually sufficient. In the rare times it's been a real issue, then of course you turn loose the lawyers. Which again, one letter puts a stop on it. My preferred method is turn my recruiters loose on the counterparty and have at it. While in this day anyone can sue anyone for just about anything, I've never seen nor heard of one of these situations going anywhere legally. Again, don't lose sleep over it.…; Added by Keith Gorman at 1:52pm on October 14, 2008

Comment on: Topic 'Should recruiters outsource the interview prep to other professionals?': s and make them a star interviewee- then they will fail in the role and it will be on your head. The more simple we make this the better. If we feel our clients are selecting the wrong candidate then it is our responsibility to explain why. If we have done our job right, we will know the 'right' candidate from the 'wrong' one, as should our client (in a perfect world). When I send my candidates to interview, I go with them - this has a LOT of benefits. But I still feel that the way someone presents themselves is a direct reflection on them as a real person- it should not be simulated- that way the right candidate will get the right job for the right reason. Perhaps an expert to coach some of our clients in "how to be a better boss" may be helpful though! lol =P…; Added by Karl LeMuth to BillVick.com at 9:40pm on July 28, 2008

Comment on: Blog Post 'Should you apply for a job online?': “official job applicant”. Some companies won’t interview you if you’re not in their Applicant Tracking System (ATS). Why? Employers are motivated by EEOC/OFCCP to treat/handle all job applicants the same (fairly). Not doing so can attract fines and penalties for employers who have a track record of hiring “backdoor” candidates who essentially did not come in the front-door so to speak. And Jeffrey it is “Viola” and “not rocket science” when the online job application system is user friendly and “works”. Buttt, “Viola” my hiney, when it doesn’t work…because it can become rocket science or something worse when the system is not user friendly. And yes, some HR types chuckle and reason, “If a job applicant cannot navigate our ATS they shouldn’t be working for us.” This is arrogance that can work against you if your ATS becomes a hellish expereince--sufficient enough to attract complaints.…; Added by Valentino Martinez at 1:27pm on August 25, 2011
