If you haven't heard......Talent Talk Cafe has grown to two Chats a week! In October, I introduced 6 new contributing voices and I'm thrilled to announce that the talented, creative, and sometimes provocative Joe Gerstandt has joined the team as well. You can read about each contributor below and also see a schedule for December and January.

Each of our guest hosts cover a different aspect of your life in recruiting - agency recruitment; branding and marketing; competitive intelligence and search tools; corporate recruitment; all things HR; personal development; and, relationships at work. I'm excited that we have so many fantastic voices with a willingness and commitment to share their knowledge and craft with each of you on RecruitingBlogs.com!

You'll find an introduction to each guest host listed below with their topic areas and scheduled dates through the end of January. You can click the link on their name to learn more about what they do.

You'll receive an email each Monday with the week's topics. If you have ideas for new topics you can share them as a response to this post or send them to me directly.
