Sunshine from the rain

I was getting depressed earlier this week. Things were getting tough at work, the recession was knocking on the door, I had a proper look at my taxes coming due, I was tired and I read a few disturbing articles.

You can't just give the candidate everything they want

For whatever reason, people don't tend to appreciate the things in life that take little or no effort.

Probably not.

Whatever it is, most people have a greater appreciation for that which takes some work to achieve, be it a possession or a new job.

When I think back to the hires I've… Continue

When the Recruiter Becomes the Candidate

Dear Claudia,

I lost my job six months ago. I worked for the company for seven years, and never even once thought of working somewhere else because I loved it so much there. My network is sick of hearing from me; I’ve applied to every job I can find, have interviewed dozens of times, but I’m always the runner-up. I’m beginning to think of myself as a second tier candidate, but I don’t know what I should do differently. The worst part is that I feel so ashamed for not being able to… Continue

Any good or bad experiences Virtual Recruiting in the Healthcare World?

I was recently laid off as a Technical Recruiter. I love the sound of working from home. 100% commission is a stretch, but something I've done in the past. With a Wife and 2 kids it's a harder sell. The company is UMSHealth.com. The support and commission structure look good if you put the work in. Any words of wisdom?

Is Honesty Really Worth It?

Well, well, look who finally decided to remember how much fun it is to blog!

To say it has been one of those weeks sounds so very cliché, but quite true. To say I minded would be a lie, though. Work has been an absolute whirlwind of activity in the last few days and I'm glad to have hardly had the time to justify taking a peek at my guilty pleasure that is RBC.

Those of you who have read my previous material know I'm a big proponent of the candidate's experience, taking… Continue

Amity's gettin' married and has to sell (or rent) in NYC

RBC has to be more than blog posts and pithy discussions; along with more jobs to fill, eventually relocation comes to mind. And the reason for this post.

The Mobile Revolution ... cool info from ComScore

Quote from Heather Green's Businessweek Blogspotting article (Mar. 16):

According to ComScore, the number of people using their mobile devices to get news and information daily from the Internet doubled to 22.4 million from a year ago. Now that’s interesting and shows that the devices and the networks are living up to their billing as a way to get mobile data for more people. But what’s just as interesting is that the number of people who used their devices for… Continue
