Jerry, really great! When I saw the extracurricular activities, I thought that he either has someone in his life with disabilities or his parents impacted his "giving" spirit. I find similar candidates in the rehabilitation field who have strong religious ties, a giving spirit, and desire to see individuals with disabilities achieve their goals. I think that depending upon the industry in which you work, you may be more skeptical when reviewing someone's resume like "The Kid's." His would be…
Jerry, really great! When I saw the extracurricular activities, I thought that he either has someone in his life with disabilities or his parents impacted his "giving" spirit. I find similar candidates in the rehabilitation field who have strong religious ties, a giving spirit, and desire to see individuals with disabilities achieve their goals. I think that depending upon the industry in which you work, you may be more skeptical when reviewing someone's resume like "The Kid's." His would be one that we would take a look at, particularly based on his interests with individuals with disabilities (and particularly since I work with an agency that is devoted to blind and vision impaired). Stereotyping used in evaluating different generations should be treated for what they are - generalized guidelines of commonalities - not a recipe book of all of x = the same attribute. I find older generations who "act" in many ways like younger generations and vice versa. Most of us are some cross mix of qualities from each generation - since we are influenced by each generation that we are in contact with.

Thanks I'd like to see that character discussion here.<br />
Nobody ever seems to want to go too close to it.<br />
It didn't get much play in the first go-round of this saga.

Maureen, my comments were not to imply that an Eagle Scout rank is the only measure of good character. I made my remarks in the context of the Boy Scout movment working on instilling the principles of ethical leadership in the young men in the program. For someone to make it to Eagle Scout takes time and commitment to not only learning these principles, but putting them into practice and demonstrating that through a variety of leadership and practical circumstances that show that they not only…
Maureen, my comments were not to imply that an Eagle Scout rank is the only measure of good character. I made my remarks in the context of the Boy Scout movment working on instilling the principles of ethical leadership in the young men in the program. For someone to make it to Eagle Scout takes time and commitment to not only learning these principles, but putting them into practice and demonstrating that through a variety of leadership and practical circumstances that show that they not only "get it" but understand the value systems of Scouting.<br />
<br />
If you happen to get such a person as a candidate, of any age, you might inquire as to what their Eagle Project was and how it helped them put into practice the principles of both ethical leadership and servant leadership. I think you'd enjoy hearing the answer.<br />
<br />
Now, with regard to other ways to measure this, that is a longer answer that many recruiters can give you a variety of responses. I'm not sure I have the stamina to type that much and would rather this be taken off line for a longer reply. Hope this helps. Hi Thomas,

Splendid news! All things being equal, an Eagle Scout rank is a great yard stick to measure a value system and an ethics system of a candidate. Glad to hear this story.

Thanks guys.<br />

Ken - I don't do much editing. I provide the answers in the same way my client would hear them if they were on the call themselves. Normally they give me several key questions and I just grab the call and stick it on top of the resume.
Thanks guys.<br />

Congrats Jerry. :) I know how you think so i expected that one. You would have placed this kid in three days just to prove your point. Like the verbal summary. Good Work.

I like the verbal summary platform. It looks like a pretty cool tool that can bring out the inner qualities of a good candidate who doesn't project well on paper. Do you edit the verbal component or do you submit the raw version of your conversation. Also, do you need to obtain written approval from candidates to submit the verbal component? I guess you proved your point on this placement. Congratulations.

<br />
That aside, this is a fabulous demo Jerry of how Verbal Summary works. I hope this helps to convince people that an enormous amount of information is carried in a person's voice that augments a person's resume.<br />
<br />
There's also an enormous amount of information carried in a person's voice that augments sourcing. It's a cry in the dark I've been howling many, many years now.
