Are we ready?

We've been working like donkey's over at the DEA getting this new labor exchange system operational. What a right pain in the ass it has been. But it's been a fun project to do, nonetheless. At least we can say "so long, fare well, auf wiedersehn, good night... (cue music)" to our friends over at the AJB. Let's give it up for private industry, y'all. If TheChad is reading this, what's our state count up to again?

Quote for the Day: Tuesday, June 26th, 2007

On "actions speak louder than words"...



"That's a key thing to remember. Having the idea is only one part of the thought leadership story. Execution and demonstration are the other pieces. Ideas, in and of themselves, are a dime a dozen and the province of writers and inventors. Actually doing the thing in a way that others can emulate is worth a million bucks."…

Establishing a biotech presence in the US?

I have been running Cortex Search Inc. out of Toronto, Canada. My firm is me, myself and I, but I generate a nice revenue stream each year from split fees, maybe about 20% of my revenue each year comes this year, depending on the year.

I am interested in growing either my splits network, or taking on new consultants based in the US.

I have provided more details on my other blog; www.formerscienceguy.com

Your Resume Is A Story

Excerpted from the Standout Jobs blog: http://blog.standoutjobs.com/your-resume-is-a-story/

Resumes should be more like stories and less like grocery lists.

How can we make resumes more into stories? Your feedback and suggestions are appreciated!

On the recruiting technology "Productivity Paradox"...



"The bottom line is that in order to have a successful recruitment system implementation, the recruiter still needs to know how to recruit, and the system needs to be perceived as a valuable tool in managing the workload...ultimately a recruitment system will only be as good as the people using it."

On sucky recruiters' excuse-making...



"We've heard all the reasons why you can't deliver strong candidates — not enough money, too many skills and requirements, not enough time, bad ads, candidates don't want to relocate, etc. Enough already! We don't need to pay for recruiters who can't find top candidates. This is your #1 job! Get creative...Just stop making excuses."…

Research: The Ragan Way

I am generally speaking, a pretty perceptive person. I tend to trust my instincts moreso than statistics or the like. I remember when I was in the 8th grade, my science fair project was unlike anything anyone else did. One reason was that I hated science and thought that logic was overrated. The other was that I was a weird kid. My science fair project was to determine if Extra Sensory Perception is more prevalent in twins than other siblings.

I…

Pardon me...

Why do I hear recruiters say that it is an intrusion to call a candidate who isn’t actively looking? I’m tired of it. It isn’t an intrusion unless you are rude about the way you present yourself. It is FLATTERY!! I love receiving a call from someone trying to recruit me because they either found me to be in the top 10% of my field, or someone else thought enough of me to pass my name and number along because I’m all…

www.VirtualPrivateLibrary.org - a website worth checking out ...

Recruiter's are always on the prowl for great internet resources with useful information that allow us to source, scout, attract and hire talent.

I stumbled on Mr. Zillman's website in 2004, and thought his website was pretty cool back then. Today, I am still just as impressed with the amount of information this man freely shares via his website.

One of the cool things you can access freely on his website is The Virtual Private…

On Feng Shui and retention best-practice...



"If we had cubicles or even individual offices with walls dividing us, the recruiter may have been able to hire away a valuable member of our team. He failed because in an open office environment it’s awkward to take a call from a recruiter and talk numbers, during work hours. Everyone can hear you.…

What does it take to attract a VC to your Company/Idea?

A couple years back I worked with Venture Capitalists in the high tech space. I wrote this article after observing so many companies and people trying their best to attract and secure venture funding for their company or idea.

While this article doesn't address recruiting specifically [my chosen passion] it in a big picture manner of speaking can be very relevant to recruiting.

Where there is money invested, recruiting is sure to…
