<p>james, couple of quick points.</p>

<p>Number one, I don't understand how any TPR stays in business performing the same recruiting tasks over the Internet as Corporate Recruiters coming up with mostly the same people.

<p>Number two, this means our sole relevance in the market place as I see it in my 31 years of recruiting experience is finding passive/invisible candidates our clients can't access and pray--I mean pray--that these candidates exist and meeting the hiring criteria of our clients. Left handed, 20 homer a year, and throwing out 40% of baserunners stealing catchers are rare. Just hope, if you can find one, your client then doesn't require he be able to steal 20 bases.....which is the reason corporate gave you the job in the first place.</p>
<p>They couldn't find this person and don't even know if one exists, thus why they released it to us.</p>
