Comment on: Topic 'Pre-existing conditions are seriously harming our intellectual output': education. Phil McCutchen said:Sad story. And one that is repeated time and again across the country and the world. But the reality is that it is not economically feasible to pay top-dollar for top-quality medical care for each and every individual -- regardless of how altruistically desireable it might be. The young man in the story had already racked-up more than $2 million in healthcare costs -- or 54 years worth of his mothers' $37,000/year salary. Only the largest of company's with a big insured employee pool might be able to cost-effectively afford such care. So every time a company makes a hire they are also making a bet that the candidates' value (ROI) exceeds their cost. A national healthcare system might help. But I wouldn't bet on it. Its only chance of success is to implement serious tort reform, pharmaceutical management, administrative cost controls, and creating vastly larger insured pools among fewer insurance companies to spread the costs. All of which will be fought tooth and nail by the firms involved -- who have very deep pockets and thousands of lobbyists. In the end it is more likely you'll end up with a two-tier system -- one for the wealthy who'll pay for superior private care; and one for everyone else who'll get what the get in Canada or the U.K. (adequate but not so good). …; Added by Steve Levy at 12:31pm on April 24, 2009

Comment on: Topic 'Selecting a new ATS and need some feedback': t as there are for Sendouts, Maxhire, and yes, PCRecruiter. There are also lots of people who hate each of those solutions with a passion unbridled. The question is, do you cluster-bomb threads when you don't like the way they are going ? The point is stone simple: Bullhorn hijacked this thread. I'd just like to know if it was a rep or a manager, but it makes no real difference. Your part in it is totally innocent, without a doubt, I hope you don't think anyone is implying otherwise..... Leslie McIntyre-Tavella said:I'll let everyone come to their own conclusions regarding why so many Bullhorn clients commented on their superior services - But I ask if in fact that many clients bothered to write - doesn't that answer the original question that was asked by Jasen? He wanted honest feedback and got it.However, I will also say that when a firm is spoken about in a negative way who can blame them for wanting a little positive feedback.Now let's get back to work! …; Added by Martin H.Snyder at 2:42pm on February 23, 2010

Comment on: Blog Post 'Unemployed A-Level Players: A Hidden Opportunity for Recruiters': e than usual) ask me if this was true... First time they had heard such a thing was possible - especially if they've never been unemployed at all or for an extended period of time. Unfortunatly, there always has been a bias against the active job seeker population (unemployed or not). As you've noted, there are so many valid reasons that unemployment should not be a filter. But the reality is that closed-minded people continue to perpetuate the myth that those with jobs are superior to those without... I'm glad you chose to say something that to me is quite obvious, but never actually stated: "Make no mistake about it, there are superstar candidates who currently do not have a full-time job. Either they were in the wrong place at the wrong time, they made somebody angry that they shouldn't have (extraordinarily bright individuals often have ideas that don't mesh with those of upper management)." I think the only way we will get past this limited thinking is if every person - who holds the opinion that the employed are more talented - becomes unemployed long enough to get first hand experience having to rebuild and defend their reputation as a "job-worthy" professional.…; Added by Kelly Blokdijk at 5:50pm on June 18, 2010

Comment on: Topic 'Recapping 2014: The Year in Recruiting': g/search firms did NOT have the best year to date (although I actually had my 2nd best year to date). In fact, one of the key points made in the Fordyce Letter article is that Korn Ferry's business was up 8% over last year. However, what that survey failed to mention is that 43% of Korn Ferry's revenues did NOT come from executive/retained search services, but came from management consulting, instead. My people tend to think that "management consulting" is a way for Korn Ferry to make up for weaker than usual business. There was also an obvious note of uncertainty in the Fordyce article, because the author (who is, realistically speaking, a complete industry outsider) said companies 'expect' to beat last year's revenues when the numbers for December come in (words to that effect) -- obviously, that means that results could only possibly be marginally better than last year (8%) since if they were better than 8%, last year's numbers would have already been reached by December 1. So, more evidence of sloppy fact-checking and poor reporting from the disreputable old magazine. Time for new blood! Recruiting Blogs is a whole lot superior, in my opinion.…; Added by Nicholas Meyler at 6:51pm on January 6, 2015
