Offending The Undead

IIt is our sincere desire to apologize to any and all recruiters who feel that the TalentFilter software is forcing them to confront their deepest, darkest fears.



The TalentFilter software reduces the time recruiters spend searching for resumes in job boards, and that means that recruiters who use our product have more time to make phone calls, send e-mails, and ....keep reading

Managers Behaving Badly

Another Industry Radar article that tickled my reality bone, Managers Behaving Badly: Five Killer Results. How do these relate to hiring managers? Hmm...let's see:



Cargo Cult Management



It’s a classic - you see a successful practice at another company and copy it. To a “tee.” It’s the same thing that happened when Jack Welch… Continue

Everybody Wants a (Rising) Star

In this business, we get to see our share of resumes, and with that as my perspective, let me offer some additional advice on crafting your resume.



Keeping in mind that two of the constants in the hiring process are that most companies want stars, and that a large portion of companies are unwilling to pay for them. So what do they end up hiring most of the time? A rising star, or something relatively close! So how do you convey this in a resume?



Two words: Career… Continue

Recruitment Fever

Recruiting can be a hassle in finding the right people to do a job, working for IT based Recruitment Company we found that another stage is actually getting job references for employment.

So what we do is to go onto saferef.com and do a search, then we find the candidate with a job reference, we assess… Continue

Mid-Year... Stepping it up.

RecruiterGuy Improve Gel Well the 4th of July is upon us. It's this time of year that I'm always catapulted into taking a hard look at my current fitness program, recruiting practices, personal relationships, or work related self-development. Strange, I know - considering most people do this around January when resolutions run rampant or in the Spring when love is in the air (or is it because of that spring cleaning thing? either way...)

Every year at this time I spend some time on each of the above…

Claudia’s Wednesday Wisdom

Claudia Faust advises on tricky situations, answers members' questions...

This week Claudia advises "Steaming Mad" how to deal with a potentially toxic relationship with a co-worker who may have issues:

...The Generalist has been telling our business customers that I’m struggling in my job (of course, she denies that she said this). To make matters worse, she “forgot” to invite me to a meeting last week with an SVP to intake a new…

Dangerous Liaisons

Dear Claudia,

I’m a corporate recruiter at my company, and I work closely with an HR Generalist for business hiring. I thought we had a great working relationship until a few weeks ago when another recruiter took me aside and said that the Generalist has been telling our business customers that I’m struggling in my job (of course, she denies that she said this). To make matters worse, she “forgot” to invite me to a meeting last week with an SVP to intake a new requisition, and now I’m…

Starbucks Recruiting

I'm reading a book called Starbucked right now - it's the story of the little coffeshop in Seattle. There's a some things that we recruiters can learn from how Howard Schultz ran his company and grew it from a small niche coffeeshop to the corporate juggernaut that it is today.



Starbucks delivered quality coffee in an era when the coffee in the US was terrible and had been for decades. The majors used lots of low quality "robusta" beans to supplement the "arcadia" beans that make up… Continue

How Does TalentFilter Work?

This is a blatant product pitch. It's okay to do this occasionally, says Jim Durbin, so I thought I'd showcase how the TalentFilter software works. Recruiters currently spend up to 65% of their day searching for resumes on job boards. Although fancy Web 2.0 services promise passive candidate results, the truth is most of us use job boards…

Back in the Saddle...

Ahhhhh, RecruiterGuy here and it's good to be back - sort of.

After a terrific week in Southern California I'm headed back to the office today. With batteries completely recharged I'm reminded why vacation time is so important. As addicted to online communities, email, my blackberry, etc. as I am I'm still a hard-core believer that you must completely unplug while on vacation in order to truly recharge.

Having not read a single email or dialed in even once to check voicemail I…
