On educating tomorrows workforce and the poor getting poorer...

Quote for the Day: Thursday, July 26th

Good Recruiting and Job Domain Names Have Value

Lately, I have been keeping the domain name info off the main page here and putting it in the domain name group I set up but I figured this is too good to only share with the 13 people who are members of that group.

I am just sitting here with a blank stare on my face right now. Seriously?

On HR and Staffing MIA or AWOL...

Quote for the Day: Tuesday, July 24, 2007



"If talent acquisition is to be the linchpin for how HR finds, develops and retains employees that drive their firm’s performance, then Staffing is truly the lead element in the war for talent and, for most, it is unequipped to do its job, poorly trained to operate as a team and poorly organized for the mission at hand."

Putting it all in perspective

Monday, July 9, 2007


Blogging in my field (recruiting and technology) is no easy task. I have found it is difficult to give an original though to a subject that has been so over talked by everyone from CEOs to HR professionals and beyond. Frightening terms like "the War…

In The Heat of the Day

Tuesday, July 10, 2007


Sitting here in DC looking out the window at the hottest day of the year so far (suppose to hit 100 with about 50% humidity) I was thinking about the heat warnings they issue. You know on the news and the radio: "drink plenty of water, don't lock your dogs in the car, don't run or…

Recruiting Roadshow

The morning started with donuts. Lots and lot of donuts. Pink donuts.…

The Economics of Sex and Staffing

The Economics of Sex and Staffing

Why is it that people who hold to being liberal, open-minded and educated can so quickly throw all that away when the subject of sex and babies comes up? How is it that they so quickly confuse correlation with causality?



I'll offer two examples and ask readers to enlighten me. The first involves a chapter from a recent book by economist Steven Landsburg. The second originates from a lecture I heard this…
