Topic: Talent Talk Cafe Transcript - What is Community - June 10/08: an - welcome! 3:03pm John Little First time to the Talent Talk Cafe 3:03pm Susan Burns Hi John - welcome! 3:04pm Susan Kang Nam first time for me as well~~ 3:04pm Chet Volpe community... a group with common interest. 3:04pm Susan Burns Hi Chet - thanks for the comment 3:04pm Angelia Floyd I'm hoping that this topic will give me more insight...but I would also agree with Chet. That's my general thought about it 3:05pm Susan Burns In addition to a common interest what else helps define a community 3:05pm Susan Burns And - what do you think people want/expect/desire from being part of the community? 3:05pm Angelia Floyd I think they want to feel part of the group 3:06pm John Little to gain wisdom and knowledge from like minded individuals 3:06pm Chet Volpe looking for mutual support and some benefit from belonging to the group. 3:06pm Susan Burns These are great comments - feeling a part of something, gaining knowledge, mutual support... 3:07pm Ryan Leary Hello 3:07pm Maren Hogan Well I think that "intimacy" needs to be part of community, yes at different levels and times but it is important 3:07pm Rayanne copmmunity: those with different expereinces and knowledge coming together for a common good 3:07pm Slouch I remember speaking to John sumser once and he told me that a successful community is one where the members and thpse participating somehow can say or feel that they get back more than what they put into it 3:07pm Susan Burns Hi Maren! Can you say more about intimacy 3:07pm Rayanne *community Maren Hogan mutual support is key though, you have to give as well as recieve 3:07pm Susan Burns Hi Rayanne! - So diverse ideas and thoughts? 3:07pm Susan Burns Great comments about sharing - giving/receiving - I like to think of it as a value exchange - contribute to get something back 3:08pm Rayanne yes, and touching on what Jason said, "giving back" 3:08pm Maren Hogan shoot. I am trying to but my comp is having issues, lemme run to the PC 3:09pm Susan Burns So, in the broader conversation about social networking sites and recruiting - what could make a difference then with how we've talked about community 3:09pm Rayanne "coming together is a beginning..: 3:09pm Susan Burns and what companies could do with their strategy? 3:09pm Susan Burns Rayanne - can you say more about "coming together"? 3:10pm Rayanne It was a quote by Henry Ford 3:10pm Rayanne "..Staying together is progress.. 3:10pm Maren Hogan Community has to be intentional. If you have a billion LI connects but no relationships to back those up, that is not community 3:11pm Rayanne working together success 3:11pm MN Headhunter I think recruiters forget that social networking sites are just that, social. That it is about creating and furthering relationships. 3:11pm Maren Hogan Investing in those you can and building up some while learning from others can be practiced easily in companies if they implement a mentoring program that does not suck 3:11pm MN Headhunter Do that first, then see if someone is interested in a job 3:11pm Susan Burns Rayanne - so before you can move to process/results its important to come together and "be"...talk...share? 3:12pm Jeff Ingman Newbee here... to me the value of community is a way to get help from others facing the same issues. 3:12pm Susan Burns Hi Paul! Hi Jeff 3:12pm MN Headhunter (sorry to be late)\ 3:12pm Rayanne recognizing that each of us comes from a different place with a different perspective 3:12pm Susan Kang Nam I would have to say be able to understand each other for that common goal in mind...having a developing a relationship 3:12pm Susan Burns Paul - glad your here! 3:12pm Susan Burns So respect is also part of community 3:13pm MN Headhunter absolutely 3:13pm Rayanne "being" is extremely important in order for that openess to take place 3:13pm Susan Kang Nam definitely - respect goes a long way.. 3:13pm Susan Burns I've been re-reading the Cluetrain Manifesto and there is great content about online connections - conversation - marketplace 3:14pm Rayanne I think of it like a web - together we build soemthing strong and inclusive 3:14pm Slouch Susan, what do you think is working these days with recruiting and using social networks 3:14pm Rayanne apart we just build walls 3:14pm Susan Burns Jason - I've seen very few examples of success and whats working partly becuz companies are trying to dive in and extract value immediately w/out engagin in the community 3:15pm Rayanne that is never successful - 3:15pm Rayanne you have to come together first 3:15pm Maren Hogan Well I'm not Susan but I think the first question directly impacts the second. When you enter a comm like a bull in a china shop and start posting jobs and hitting people with what are, in essence, ads, they disengage 3:15pm Susan Burns Where they are engaging they are getting results - Twitter is producing hires but via the biz leads versus recruiters 3:15pm MN Headhunter Jason, here is my example. In 1000 tweets on Twitter I have asked 1 time about help filling a job. 3:16pm Chet Volpe anyone still there? anyone have any comments or experience with starting a group on one of the socia networks around having your motives questioned. 3:16pm MN Headhunter But durung that time I have had 8 requests to lend some help. 3:16pm Susan Burns Chet - I think your motives are questioned when you take the "bull" approach Maren describes. Its a dance at first and you need to play and have fun - then results will arise 3:17pm Maren Hogan Chet, I think when you follow some of the above guidelines, that tends to happen less and less. When you can give before taking and provide real value to your community, people will eventually come to you. 3:17pm MN Headhunter Someone once used the analogy of being at a party. Guy shows up, passes out his real estate business card. Hits everyone up for leads. 3:17pm MN Headhunter You do not want to be that guy 3:17pm Maren Hogan Reason? You are there and it is obvious you care. Does that sound like a Hallmark card? 3:17pm Maren Hogan or girl 3:17pm Rayanne Just give back more than you take and no one will question.. 3:17pm Slouch i don;t even want to be at that party Rayanne my mom used to say, "keep the camping site cleaner than you found it..." that applies here as well 3:18pm Susan Burns When you enter a community and immediately want to extract value without contributing the community either doesn't respond or responds negatively. It can be detrimental to the brand 3:18pm MN Headhunter But the analogy goes for every situation. If you go to a party, recruiting event, or start a web site it cannot be about what you want but what you can offer 3:18pm Jeff Ingman So give a few examples of how to give to this community? 3:19pm MN Headhunter offer advice, offer to connect people, offer links to knowledgable people\ 3:19pm Rayanne share expereiences, 3:19pm Slouch I think that with Ning and the ability to set up a provate network, the ability to create an unbelievable recruiting tools exists 3:19pm MN Headhunter promote others events, expertise 3:19pm Slouch private 3:19pm Rayanne be light-hearted..., this is not an easy job 3:19pm Susan Burns Community is taking a perspective that we are all connected at a deeper level. By listening to the community you also learn more about what they want Slouch Hey jeff, are you referring to RecruitingBlogs.com? 3:20pm Susan Kang Nam I am fairly new to all this.. and I think listening. is very important so far.. to reach out and to see what the "needs" are.. and how to give back... This is my perspective so far.. 3:21pm Jeff Ingman Yes 3:21pm Susan Burns Also, looking at connection as being fun, an experiment, a global marketplace - often the community will begin to share what they want more of or less of - RB.com is a great example 3:21pm Rayanne listening is key 3:21pm Rayanne imperative, even 3:21pm MN Headhunter that and we all have had at some point in our careersm the same questions, issues, etc and at some point someone helped us it is our turn to help back 3:21pm Susan Kang Nam definitely.. 3:21pm Susan Burns listening and giving back - very key in the beginning but also to grow and retain community 3:22pm Maren Hogan In life, and business, there is an excellent rule to follow: have one person you are mentoring (passing along knowledge, building up) 3:22pm Maren Hogan one person that you are on the same level with, so you can bounce ideas off each other, iron sharpens iron 3:23pm MN Headhunter but doing this takes time and most do not want to invest. they want to do a withdrawal without doing a deposit 3:23pm Susan Burns This is a great discussion - wonderful comments - thanks! 3:23pm Maren Hogan and a third that is your mentor, they hold you accountable and teach you what they've learned 3:23pm Slouch i just typed a ton of ideas and it never made it Jeff. I'll wait maybe there is a delay and I;ll retype it 3:23pm MN Headhunter (happened to me too) Rayanne happened to me too 3:24pm Susan Burns Time is a key factor - so how do we do all of this for recruiting? Is small, targeted better than firehose 3:24pm Rayanne I agree with Maren 3:24pm MN Headhunter Maren, intersting that I have been doing that without knowing I was doing that 3:24pm Jeff Ingman I'm new to this site. Where is the best place to go on the site to learn and contribute to the community? 3:24pm Susan Burns and yes - had the same thing with the chat black hole 3:24pm Rayanne right on the home page is a great place to start Jeff 3:24pm Slouch Jeff, you can read, and contribute ideas and perspectives, refer people to the site you think will add value and keep the site interesting 3:24pm Susan Burns jeff - this is a great starting point. you can also visit the forum - write/contribute or blog content 3:24pm Slouch you can submit videos 3:24pm MN Headhunter Jeff, start a blog post on your page or create a discussion forum. 3:25pm Rayanne and ideas 3:25pm John Little not to go all sales 101 but listening is the MOST important part of being a successful salesperson 3:25pm Slouch take me up on offers I make for free tickets to conferences. I give away a lot of them, 3:25pm MN Headhunter John, AMEN 3:25pm Susan Burns Jeff - great as well that your interested and asking!! 3:25pm Maren Hogan it's all good, some of us NEED sales 101 3:25pm MN Headhunter I always suggest "lurking" for a period of time. Get to know the "players", get to know the culture of the group before jumping in 3:25pm Rayanne sometimes we worry so much about what we will say next that we stop listening 3:26pm Slouch this idea for talent talk was susans and now she has the floor. If you ever have ideas about how you can add something here, let me know 3:26pm Susan Burns Just read that ameriprise is giving training to their brokers on compassion - revenue went up and stress went down 3:26pm Susan Kang Nam I agree with Rayanne on that.. 3:26pm Jeff Ingman I know about lurking but it can get boring if you don't jump in... even if you aren't up to speed 3:26pm Maren Hogan that is so cool. whose brainchild was that one? 3:26pm Rayanne that is a great idea 3:26pm Susan Burns Paul - definitely - observe and then immerse! 3:26pm Maren Hogan Oh nuts, I think I did it backward. Oh well! 3:27pm Chet Volpe In my experience using linkedin for networking and recruiting, I always approach folks from the networking prespective and if they are interested in the position I am trying to fill, that is good. not sure how to get started on some of the others like 3:27pm Rayanne it all goes back to that darn "golden rule" 3:27pm MN Headhunter Jeff, it's a fine line. Some folks jump in like a cannon ball. Some try the water with the ote 3:27pm Susan Burns Maren/Rayanne are u asking about the ameriprise training? 3:27pm MN Headhunter toe 3:27pm Chet Volpe myspace or face book 3:27pm Maren Hogan I am asking about ameriprise training 3:27pm Rayanne yup 3:27pm Susan Burns chet - depends - big diff in demographics between the two and ms is shedding members 3:27pm MN Headhunter Chet, do a search on MySpace. People sign up for diffeent things like friend, dating, relationships, and networking 3:28pm Susan Burns maren/rayen - no link but was in Ode magazine. Its on my list to write about - very cool and measurable outcomes 3:28pm MN Headhunter If they say networking, that is for me an open invitation to introduce myself. But offering something they might want 3:28pm Susan Burns oops- sorry Rayanne - typing to fast and missed a few letters 3:29pm MN Headhunter like an upcoming tech event, salary information, news link 3:29pm Maren Hogan Ode? Is new to me. Will look up 3:29pm Rayanne you can call me Ray 3:29pm Susan Burns RE community - I'm at a university recruit conference and we just had a panel discusion - they are totally turned off by recruiters who dive in and reach out to recruit 3:29pm Susan Burns they see as separate space between personal and professional 3:30pm MN Headhunter nothing worse than seeing that o Facebook, very annoying. 3:30pm MN Headhunter If one offers information and becomes trusted, people will reach out to you 3:30pm Susan Burns looking at fan sites - check out victoria's secret piink (esp u Paul) as an alternative to direct outreach 3:30pm MN Headhunter uhh, I might look elsewhere on the site 3:31pm Susan Burns Paul - YES TRUST is really important - how do you build it online? 3:31pm Slouch are they hiring? 3:31pm Rayanne There is a line between pro / personal but that is where I have found my greatest successes 3:31pm Rayanne when I connect with candidates and clients personally 3:31pm Rayanne are you looking slouch? 3:31pm Slouch lol 3:31pm MN Headhunter we both are 3:31pm Slouch not today 3:31pm Susan Burns Rayanne - how are you crossing over from professional to personal? 3:31pm MN Headhunter there I mean 3:31pm Rayanne in my very forst conversation 3:32pm Rayanne first 3:32pm Rayanne be it a common interst, location...etc. 3:32pm Susan Burns Jason and Paul are distracted now ;-) 3:32pm Slouch im back. im sorry 3:32pm Maren Hogan I know how do we always talk about beer and women?? 3:32pm Susan Kang Nam lol 3:32pm MN Headhunter I go back to the Twitter idea. 1000 tweets, 1 job mentioned. Just be yourself, be a little forward, see what other people are talking about, make a connection 3:32pm Susan Burns so Rayanne - your nurturing the relationship and moving the line to overlap btwn prof and personal 3:33pm Rayanne taking it past a cold call 3:33pm MN Headhunter It's about relationshsips. Maybe that is why for some this does not work. they want the results now. 3:33pm Rayanne I never think of it as a cold call 3:33pm Susan Kang Nam I think also it's about timing...as well.. 3:33pm Rayanne timing is everything-- which is why I keep calling 3:34pm Rayanne the next one might be the right time 3:34pm Slouch that is exactly right 3:34pm Susan Burns susan - that also implies understanding, patience and investing in someone - yyes? 3:34pm Slouch how many time you call someone and they are no longer at the company and you look at your notes and they said, very happy right now, call me back in 6 months 3:35pm Susan Kang Nam YES! 3:35pm Dennis Smith I agree with Paul about the rel'ships...I don't find many that are disagreeable, even if we've not yet developed a "meaningful" rel'ship 3:35pm Slouch that is a real big lesson the first time it happens 3:35pm Rayanne often, Jason 3:35pm MN Headhunter As a side note, I have never looked at Twitter as a recruiting tool but a relationship tool. People know what I do and to tie in to Rayanne that when they are ready they will tell me 3:35pm Rayanne yep 3:35pm Dennis Smith Which is the same way I've viewed FBook 3:35pm Jeff Ingman techinical observation... the print in this chat is small for us with weak peepers. Who to ask to make it bigger 3:35pm MN Headhunter I use my ATS for that, Jason. I always ask to call back in 90 or 180 days. And then I do. 3:36pm Jeff Ingman i have expanded with IE but this distorts stuff a bit 3:36pm Rayanne That's good Paul 3:36pm Susan Burns paul - great comment re Twitter - & the beauty of it is that by building connecttions and sharing it evolves to return value 3:36pm Rayanne follow up and follow through leads to a strong reputation 3:36pm Slouch Jeff, I don;t think I can fix it now. I will check on it after. Thanks 3:37pm Susan Kang Nam I haven't explored Twitter yet.. but now I will.. thanks for that 3:37pm Rayanne ho dennis... 3:37pm Susan Burns I learn something on twitter every day and feel compelled to give back - which is also why i'm more patient w/ their technical issues and not jumping to plurk 3:37pm MN Headhunter And in the mean time I suggest they look at my blog, or add to my newsletter email list, or see if they or someone they know are interested in helping a local non profit who needs tech volunteers 3:37pm Rayanne hi, i mean.. geez 3:37pm Jeff Ingman did not expect immediate fix 3:37pm Slouch thanks 3:37pm Dennis Smith question for Paul...are you connected to hundreds of people on twitter or just those that you think would be important with regard to long-term value 3:37pm Susan Burns paul - that adding value as well - you put a lot into your blog that gives a lot to people 3:37pm Susan Burns hey Dennis - welcome! 3:37pm Dennis Smith thanks Susan! 3:37pm Dennis Smith late - sorry 3:38pm MN Headhunter I was shocked whenI went to local tech event, wearing a blue shirt, similar to tone on my Twitter profile, and people walk up and say "hey" 3:38pm NMarie I like the email list idea...although it is not "One-on-One" it keeps in contact... 3:38pm Rayanne better late then never 3:38pm Slouch Dennis. great video you made and I love the song 3:38pm Rayanne me too! 3:38pm Maren Hogan I think twitter has made me way recognizable to people. Had four people at Kennedy intro themselves 3:38pm Dennis Smith well, knew you would bro....got the rush kinship thing going 3:38pm Susan Burns Paul - that also brings up the importance of another dimension - moving between the online and offline worlds 3:38pm Rayanne aww, yes, kinship..... 3:38pm MN Headhunter Dennis, Twitter, it changes. who I follow and seem to follow me is split 3:39pm Dennis Smith gotcha 3:39pm MN Headhunter 1/3 local tech folks,. 1/3 recruiter folks, 1/3 bloggers 3:39pm Maren Hogan I think it's important to reach out whenever possible, F2F, phone, card etc. 3:39pm Susan Burns Is blending online/offline an effective approach to recruitment as well? 3:39pm MN Headhunter It has to be 3:39pm Rayanne pphone 3:39pm MN Headhunter I spend about 1/3 of my time doing the social stuff the rest is old school phone and enmail 3:40pm Maren Hogan if you use only online tools, your phone muscles goe dead. . . 3:40pm Susan Burns has anyone else seen examples of doing this really well - social - community? 3:40pm Maren Hogan um that's the british spelling of "go" 3:40pm Rayanne true, Maren 3:40pm Rayanne ummm..., REALLY connecting a group? 3:40pm Maren Hogan Heck yeah! RBC and my twitterpeeps 3:40pm Rayanne RBC 3:40pm Maren Hogan Or are you asking for corp stuff? 3:41pm Rayanne definitely 3:41pm NMarie It also depends on industry you work in... Healthcare requires more emailing and phone! 3:41pm Rayanne healthcare requires patience 3:41pm Susan Burns absolutely - RBC!! 3:41pm Rayanne and tenacity 3:41pm Susan Burns yes - what about for corporate recruitment or even third party 3:41pm Susan Burns Hi NMarie - can you share more about that 3:42pm MN Headhunter I am sitting on the company name for the moment, but a Minnesota $5B is redoing their corporate web site to add career pages specifically for sales, tech, and marketing folks. Set up a Twitter account for jobs, and added RSS feeds too 3:42pm Rayanne when I worked in-house- we had a rule: no stopping and talking in the halls. 3:42pm Maren Hogan it's fascinating actually, because I have been invited to eerily similar groups and occassionally joined but it's the intentional leadership here that engages people and makes each member feel valued rather than as a connection commodity 3:42pm Slouch If I were still recruiting now, I would take the top 300 candidates I can name and build out a provate ning group for them and then start singing and dancing 3:42pm Slouch the placements will absolutely follow 3:42pm MN Headhunter Best Buy also does some of this with more rollig out this year 3:42pm NMarie Yes, because of the Nurses I am recruiting, my experience is they enjoy seeing things in writing... 3:42pm Dennis Smith They (BB) is getting "it" ....just like the other company you mentioned. 3:43pm MN Headhunter Jason, doing that here too for the tech community. My late summe project 3:43pm Susan Kang Nam I had similar experience with recruiting for researchers at a University...setting. 3:43pm Susan Kang Nam the like to see more writing... 3:43pm MN Headhunter But they are the onkly 2 3:43pm Dennis Smith This is very standard communication protocol for many in the X Gen,...... 3:43pm MN Headhunter 220 recruiters at our last event, 7 using RSS feeds 3:43pm Dennis Smith that would be "are" not "is: 3:44pm Dennis Smith Paul - what's that number compare to from one year ago? 3:44pm Susan Burns NMarie - do they participate in communities and networks? 3:44pm MN Headhunter I am not trying to be snob but if relying on job boards to find people, shut the hell up about a War For Talent 3:44pm Rayanne True MN Headhunter 3 if I remember right 3:44pm Dennis Smith Amen, brother P 3:45pm MN Headhunter 3 if I remember right 3:45pm Susan Burns Paul - i would say the same about university recruitment 3:45pm Maren Hogan Sometimes when I mentioned customized jobsites or rss feeds people don't even know what I am talking about 3:45pm NMarie Memberships to RN Associations depending on state and pub magazine...some websites are trying 3:45pm Dennis Smith Wow....the times are a changin 3:45pm Maren Hogan they say" but we have a jobs page". sigh 3:45pm Rayanne good recrutiers don't wait for candidates to come to them 3:45pm Rayanne they go get 'em 3:45pm NMarie to capture more social networking... still in the learning phase! Susan Burns seems like healthcare could create a very cool community around learning, sharing, helping, ..... 3:46pm Susan Kang Nam learning phase as well... 3:46pm Maren Hogan the thing that strikes me about socnets community etc, is the power of the individual can sometimes eclipse the power of the corp presence and in effect be a "beard" for a lame duck employer 3:46pm Maren Hogan not that there's anything wrong with that. . . 3:46pm MN Headhunter To use another analogy, if you hunt all day (job boards) and never farm (develop relationships) if the hunted move away, get smaller, or are less of them you are screwed. 3:46pm Rayanne Having spent five years in H/C recruitment, I firnly believe an online community would eb extremely beneficial 3:47pm Susan Burns maren - absolutely - the community owns the brand! if companies don't play they lose complete control. 3:47pm Susan Burns Rayanne - isn't beeker targeting healthcare? NMarie Yes, Susan there is a window of opportunity... for all healthcare recruiters..thus - I'm IN! 3:48pm Slouch Beaker is targeting life sciences 3:48pm Rayanne I think so. 3:48pm Susan Burns NMarie - I hope you'll continue to share your progres with us 3:48pm Rayanne Life Sciences is to broad 3:48pm Rayanne that's like targeting Human Resources to catch the recrutiers 3:48pm NMarie Thanks to venues like this...we each listen and learn... Gotz to go! Take care Y'ALL! 3:49pm Susan Burns Thanks for the FABULOUS discussion everyone. I need to logoff and go back to the conference. presenting in a few 3:49pm Slouch says the online community for the life sciences industry 3:49pm Rayanne Thanks Susan and everyone else... 3:49pm Susan Burns Jason - thanks for creating an archive of today's chat - can't wait to read through it agai! 3:49pm Susan Kang Nam Thanks Susan and everyone. 3:49pm Chet Volpe thanks all... 3:49pm Susan Burns Everyone - please let me know if there's a topci idea for the future? 3:50pm Slouch Thanks susan. I have a copy of the text. ill post it soon 3:50pm Susan Burns oops that was topic - adios!! 3:50pm…; Added by Slouch at 4:04pm on June 10, 2008
