On the EOE/EEO/AA/M/F/D Alphabet Soup...

Quote for the Day: Wednesday, July 18th, 2007

"Equal opportunity statements seem awkward at best and unnecessary at worst, especially in radio commercials. After all, equal opportunity is the law, so stating it in your ad is a bit odd.

Imagine spotting a delivery van with a bumper sticker that… Continue

SourceCon Challenge#2 - So you’re Stumped !! Great Sourcers that you are !!!

48 hours into Challenge #2 and the feedback is that it is just too hard. The feedback we received from Challenge#1 was “too easy”. This is not the story of the “Goldielocks and the 3 Sourcing Gurus” and you are hoping to find Challenge#3 too be 'just right'.

We have been intentionally elevating the complexity level of each challenge to ensure that we get only THE BEST OF THE BEST for the final showdown in Atlanta. I can give you a few hints to…

On Google being a Web 2.0 parasite...

Quote for the Day: Tuesday, July 17th, 2007

"Take Google, for example, the economic paragon of a truly successful Web 2.0 media company. With a market cap of approximately $150 billion, the Silicon Valley company took in $6.139 billion in revenue and $1.465 billion in profits in 2005. Telling is the fact that unlike companies such as Time Warner or Disney that create and produce movies, music, magazines, and television, Google is a parasite; it creates no content… Continue

On virtual reality and dystopia...

Quote for the Day: Monday, July 16th, 2007

"Where does this culture of "unreality" come from. Part of the answer is that it is created and controlled by a governing class made up of the media, corporations and political groups. The members of this class exercise much of their power by inventing news, advertising, and entertainment that is sold to us and used to sell us other things, from products and candidates to ideas. All compete with each other to determine… Continue

On candidate self-sabotage...

Quote for the Day: Friday, July 13th, 2007

Periodically, you may run into a Headhunter who seems to be somewhat jaded, rather skeptical, and appears to have had his sense of humor

surgically removed. Or, perhaps, you may run into one or two in your

life that don't act that way.

The reason for this attitude is that candidates frequently sabotage

their own job search efforts (while, in the process, taking food out of

the… Continue

Do you like your job?

I think my friends are getting sick of listening to me. Well, they’ve

probably always been a little tired of listening to me talk since a) I

like to hear myself talk, so I can talk about nonsense for hours and b)

my voice sounds like a cross between a tortured hyena and a wounded

elephant. But, that aside, I think that my friends are very tired of

hearing me talk about how much I love my job. I look forward to my

“office days,” when I get to sit at the desk,… Continue

Politics and Stupidity

This has nothing whatsoever to do with recruiting...but it throttled me nonetheless.

So I'm driving in to the office this morning listening to the good ole NPR and they're doing yesterday's Capital Hill roundup rodeo of the Iraq debate, Harriet Meirs not appearing, etc... And they fired off two sound bytes; one from Jon Kyl from my home state (AZ) and one from Lindsey Graham from South Carolina.

Kyl: "The best way to support the troops is to support the troops"

Graham:… Continue
