Is Facebook Worth It For Job Boards?

With all of the hype currently surrounding Facebook, I thought I’d see how things were stacking up for the job boards that have embraced the social network.

In the UK, Jobsite and JobTonic have taken the plunge, with CareerBuilder set to release a UK centric version soon. In the states, CareerBuilder, Jobster, HotJobs and Indeed have joined the Facebook party;…

Rock Stars

We read, create and participate in research pertaining to attracting and retaining top talent all the time. Research that clearly illustrates why employees stay and why they

leave. Just last week I stumbled upon an article by Kris Dunn

confirming the fact the employees don't leave for more money. Employees

stay for the people and connections they have made, the challenges…

JobTarget Pics

Ethan Bloomfield from JobTarget.com had by far the best booth at the ERE show in DC for many reasons. Not only that, they were handing cameras out to everyone to take pictures of whatever they wanted. Then the cameras were returned and all of a sudden, JobTarget was the proud owner of hundreds and hundreds of pictures from the show. The results can be found at… Continue

U.S. Median Voluntary Turnover Rate: 11 percent

Watson Wyatt, an international association of human resource professionals, released a study today that may send shivers down the spines of management: a large majority of companies in the United States and around the world are struggling to attract and retain top-performing and critical-skill workers.



The study, which included 946 companies and a complementary survey of 13,000 employees, found that the United States has the highest median voluntary turnover rate, at 11 percent,… Continue

Why I am not a Republican

The Republican Party never felt right even when I was 10 (about the time I decided on what I was). I would rate my ethics high, which means I could not be a part of anything that took from others, destroyed land or resources for my own profit, and put myself above anything or anyone else. I try not to destroy other living things because they are not convenient to me. I believe that everything has intrinsic value (I do draw the line at certain vermin and noxious weeds). Maybe because of these…

The ERE Expo Fall 2007 Conference

I thought I would write a series of posts on the ERE Expo that concluded on October 19, 2007. I must say, this was one of the most informative conferences I have been to in a long time. To me the tone and the information was geared towards taking recruitment to the next level and what does it mean to really support the business.

Day One at ERE Expo DC 2007

I’m here at the ERE conference in DC and so far it seems the

oil is flowing and everything is running smooth. It seems at least to me that

Dave Manaster has a little black book but instead of phone numbers, it is

filled with the recipe for a smooth running conference. Everything here is

good. I have not seen the book but I am sure it exists.







Over the last many years, I have developed a real…

The Candidate Experience



We discuss "the candidate experience" daily. I would even venture to say approximately every other minute. That's because it is a part of every consideration here. It justifies our strategies and therefore, our clients' actions. After all, a company is defined by their talent. Interestingly enough, I came

across a great post recently on making good first…
