Give Me An E! E! Give Me a T! T! Give Me An, I - Ah, that'll take too long. E-T-I-Q-U-E-T-T-E - Learn It, Love It, Live It

While awaiting the departure of a delayed flight recently, my travel companion and I decided to pass the time by having some liquid refreshment in one of the restaurants in the main terminal. During our conversation, I happened to glance at the table to my right. At this table there were two middle-aged women who looked to be in no hurry, having lunch and chatting pleasantly. This scene is neither unique nor that interesting, and I doubt that I would have paid them much notice except for the… Continue

Why do you lock Google out of your jobs?

The next episode in my series of blog posts about running recruitment sites that really work is now live on my main blog.

This time we discus why so many of you won't let Google read your job adverts? Clearly this is not going to help you get more traffic - quite the opposite.

You need as many pages in Google as you can get, all with great content that your job seeker might actually be searching on.…

ERNIE ain't what it used to be

Looks like it's Ruffle Feather Monday here in Dieselville. This morning I read Interbiznet's ERNIE which has been so finely written by crusty ol' John "I'm contemplating my navel" Sumser since 1996 or so. Today's topic was another fawning piece by a supposed member of the new Rat Pack… Continue

Free Usage ATS Trial

Last week I posted an article about maximizing an applicant tracking system’s (ATS) 30 day trial. While the post was specifically intended for a time limited trial, I want to extend the post to include topics regarding a different form of ATS test drive offered by vendors. This offer revolves around a completely free model of usage.

The word “free” has reigned champion as the number one attention getter for quite some time. I almost always review offers that land within my general or… Continue

Dear Employer, Thanks for the offer - but I don't want to be your "first"......

Dear Employer,

Thank you for the consideration you have given me. I can only imagine the amount of effort you have put into saving yourself for someone special in my field. I know there are many recruiters who have come along giving you more than a few reasons to not trust any of us. So again - thank you for seeing something in my and giving me the opportunity to be your "first" recruiter.

Unfortunately I can not accept that responsibility. Over the years I have had…

Job Search Tip: What can a recruiter do for you?

Since I’ve discussed with you before how to work with recruiter and the best ways for you to attract the attention of a recruiter, I thought I’d add one more thing, just so we’re all on the same page…for you to understand the role a recruiter plays in your job search, you need to understand that I work for the client company, not for you. That doesn’t mean working with a medical sales recruiter isn’t an asset for you in your search for a medical sales job, such as a biotech sales job, clinical… Continue

Thirty-three percent of U.S. companies allow employees to telecommute

By MICHELLE GOODMAN

June 19, 2008

This year's skyrocketing gas prices are enough to make even the most diehard office suck-ups fantasize about finding a job that lets them telecommute. But is finding a new job that lets you work from home a realistic goal or just a pipe dream?

Thirty-three percent of U.S. companies allow employees to telecommute on a part-time basis, while 21 percent allow it full-time, according to the Society for Human Resource… Continue

How to Work a Tradeshow

I had a candidate call me and ask for advice on how to work a tradeshow. He’s looking for a job, and exploring many avenues. He’s already ahead of the game by having a plan, but here’s my advice:

Before the show:
