Stopped in to say hello, now I'm once again ready to go off....

Dang it! I really wish I had a different frame of mind here, but I don't.

Stopped in to see if anything interesting was going on. Saw quite a few posts with no conversation. Then I noticed one about Mobile Recruiting. So I checked it out. Turned out to be one posted by someone with a title of "Content Marketing Strategist"" - which is a pretty interesting title. :) She is with a cash-flow factoring company in fact. Not a recruiting firm.

The article sure seems to be a first-person account of things in the mobile recruiting world....yet I don't see the poster as having a background in recruiting. Odd, isn't it?So I replied to the post with just 2 questions: Are you a recruiter? Did you write this?

Lo and behold - my comments are awaiting moderation.

Yes, I'm a crusty old "original" RBC'er. I know we're a dying breed.....but come on people!!!!!! What's going on?

Here's a hint:

#3 Haven't sobered up yet.

#5 Caught myself randomly reading Amazon ratings.

#9 Arguing about nothing on Facebook in the recruiting groups.

BTW Jerry - Congrats on making #1 on the Popular postings list.

Comment by Amber on December 18, 2013 at 1:01pm: Can't there be a spot for ads and/or promotions? That way we can choose to read them or not.

I will say that when I first found RBC, there was lots of valuable information and members who really helped me as a beginning recruiter. Still find things occasionally, but a lot of those people don't seem to be on much in the same way. But I think RBC can and will be a great site!
