Search Engine - Ease of use

When you ask a group of recruiters about which search engine they prefer you are likely to get many and diverse response starting from AltaVista, Google, Yahoo, live, etc… You also might hear people say "I used to prefer (fill in the name,)" but changed to yahoo or Google or live because it was better.

The Highs & Lows

When we live from high to high we lose sight of what it took to get there. We become addicted to the high and are down when we don’t have constant success.

Enjoy your day because today you have the opportunity to touch many people’s lives with your words and work.

Video Here To Stay? A few weeks ago I was excited to share a video that I was proud to be part of. It did (and continues to do) a great job at explaining to potential job seekers what occurs in the 'day in the life of' a Premises Technician. Of noted debate from time to time is just how technical this particular brand of technician is required to be.…

How do I match the Right Tool to the right job?

Searches don’t happen real-time, they take place in databases, within search engines and under a host of algorithms. Some search engines are free of human intervention while others are a selection of hand picked links. Within search engines, some searches are guided by keywords, some are natural language driven, and yet others are advance intelligence systems.

Search engines, directories, and other search… Continue

People Don't Quit Jobs -They Quit Managers

Building first class team begins with you. Are you the type manager that you would want to work with and reach for, or are you a type of manager that you would run away from, as fast as you can? It is a very pointed question, and one that takes time and consideration.

After reading Jack Canfields’ “Success Principles”, attending several seminars and workshops on personal power and effectiveness and coaching many leaders and emerging leaders it has become a passion of mine to… Continue

Beyond basic training: Three tips for getting the most out of hourly workers.

When it comes to salaried employees, training and on-boarding receive your full attention. You conduct research, come up with snazzy slogans and meaningful acronyms, hire experts, measure retention…and repeat.

But what about your hourly employees? Do you make the same commitment? Or is it trial by (deep) fryer?

Just because the typical hourly employee is likely to change jobs more than once a year, your 100% turnover rate isn’t an excuse not to “waste” money on… Continue

Social Networks Improve 'Hearing'...

Social Networking Improves 'Hearing' Every so often I get an email or comment posted on my RecruiterGuy blog that strikes a chord with me. This weekend was no exception. I received two, however - both with ultimately the same message, "Thanks for hearing me."

If you've ever been unfortunate enough to be trapped in a conversation with me when I became incredibly passionate about one of my favorite topics then you know - I'm a huge fan of the two way communication that is social networking. I've been lucky enough…

I actually know the reason.
