So I've mentioned here and there that I'm putting together a toolkit for Recruiters - a dynamic reference for Online searches, social networking, blogging guide, etc. If you were on my team you'd know that I store many of these items on a centralized and shared server for all to reference. One of the documents I'm working on is a listing of search engines that I use and what the functionality or specialty is of each.
A few days ago I received an email from a reader of…
Our resident "Agony Aunt" the indefatigable Claudia Faust, is away today but will pick up her Wednesday Wisdom post next week. So if you have a delicate situation which Claudia can help you find answers to drop her a line and we'll back in the swing of things next week.
In the meantime, something completely different. Sound bites from international citizen Ander Sorman-Nilssan...
Now that I have your attention I'd like to say Thank you first and foremost for taking the time to read my blog post. My name is Tonya Hines of Chicago, IL. Seven months ago I relocated to the Atlanta Metropolitan area. I am seeking to join the Recruitment Industry. In every management position I've ever held there was one aspect that I have always enjoyed which has transformed into a passion. That passion is being a resource, a link, and an informer in regards to their paths they… Continue
I guess my Oklahoma roots are showing because I loved this TechRepublic post by Calvin Sun. Not bad for a guy who probably doesn't have a single Country CD in his collection.
Gaining Exposure By Giving The People What They Want
by Chris Young , Tuesday, June 3, 2008
THERE IS A FAMOUS TINSELTOWN quote often attributed to comedian Red Skeleton about the well-attended 1958 funeral of Harry Cohn, the tyrant president of Columbia Pictures.
Skeleton said "Give the people what they want to see and they'll come out for it."
The sentiment is also an axiom for most businesses. When you provide a quality product or service that people… Continue

Meanwhile, you are trying to keep track of peoples thoughts on each candidate while still more resumes and follow-ups are filling your inbox. All you need is a… Continue

Well the Twitter outages are no secret to anyone that's been using the web based micro-blogging tool lately. And the picture of the whale being carried across the sea by small (tweeting) birds when Twitter has reached maximum capacity says it all. And despite the fun we have blaming…

Microsoft Shows Its Hand
by Steve Baldwin , Monday, June 2, 2008
IT'S BEEN CALLED A STUNT, a desperate move, and "little more than a gimmick." It's been derided as a failed idea already tried by Amazon's A9, iWon, and other rebate-hawking sites that never gained traction. It is, of course, Microsoft's Live Search Cash Back, the first of what promises to be a series of "disruptive" initiatives designed to derail Google's overwhelming, yet ever-growing dominance in search (now… Continue

Search Engine Land
While the blogosphere focused on Microsoft's cashback deal, the software giant was plugging away at another, behind-the-scenes deal that would secure it even more search market share.
