Got Flowers???

What a wonderful surprise! Today I received flowers from someone that I recruited. Her name is Karen Lee and I placed her at Mary Kay in a Business Analyst position back in November. I had sent her a card in December just to touch base with her and she responded with sending me gorgeous flowers! I have been recruiting for 9 years and have never received flowers from someone I recruited. This has made my day, heck...maybe even my whole year! Thanks Karen! :)

Sales Recruiter Featured on ESPN!

OK - so I wasn’t actually "featured" on ESPN, but my email has been blowing up for the last hour or so because I was just on ESPN for the second time in less than a year.

Specifics for China in 2008

A lack of specificity is not something I am normally accused of.

Prepare, Prepare and Prepare Some More

As someone who has interviewed many people over the years, I can tell you that it is obvious to the interviewer which applicants have properly prepared for the interview, which applicants have prepared a little, and who hasn't prepared at all.

Thanks to the Internet, you don't need to put in a huge amount of effort to dig up useful information in preparation for your interview. Focus on researching three categories of information:

  1. The company
  2. The…

Transitioning back into the office after working from home for years...

Today is my first day of having to drive into and work in the office. I have worked so long from my home that I'm kind of in shock.
