Random Musings

This recruitment community is so interesting - it has become part of my daily routine. I really enjoy reading the posts of various member.

The New Kid on the Block

I am our Taleo System Administrator so it seemed like a natural project for me to accept - with the help of my good friend and colleague.



We've been exploring tools that both of us use for personal reasons (Myspace, Facebook, Bloggings) and… Continue
