All questions could be mitigated if Jeremy were to come on and agree to be interviewed by someone from the RBC community...

From what I can tell - the model is a failure anyway - so why would ANYONE pay to join in that mess?

They already charge 25%, isn't that enough? If they're looking to shift gears and charge a monthly fee, that would say to me that the placements simply aren't happening. Not a good sign.

What I am hoping is that many of our competitors will pay them - thus making them feel more inclined to spend effort with the BJ "client" list. The more of my competitors spending time with companies that hate them and are plotting against them - the better!

is recruit alliance the same as bountyjobs? i have been on bounty, and have walked away from it as i am only recruiting independently p/t and dont really have enough time for marketing as well as recruiting. I am curious about recruitalliance as they of course charge a monthly fee, but do not take any of the placement fees and you are dealing directly with the client so it acts more as a vmo system i suppose.
thoughts?

I would pay to hear him explain certain changes. Service is becoming one-sided. Time for him to get on the hot-seat.

I'm interested to know what is everyone "MAIN" complaint about BJ. Is it:

- the fee
- the jobs
- the people on the site
- the system itself
- or just a multitude of things

In my opinion, the main issue with BJ is that it discourages direct contact and relationship building with the clients...and this is presented to clients as a 'benefit' that they don't have to 'talk' to those pesky recruiters. They can simply use BJ as a buffer and have it just be a gateway for resumes....and since they also insist on the candidate contact data being on those resumes, BJ is also building quite the database....and no one is really sure what they intend to do with that data.

I don't hear much about people actually making placements with BJ, just lots of headaches....clients gathering resumes for jobs that sometimes 30+ recruiters are engaged on and then never filling the job or responding to questions or giving feedback.

And then taking 25% of the total fee.

Thanks Pam for the information. It seems like there are some questions to be answered by BJ.

Augastus-

How about coming across less the Terminator and try the human approach. Do you think anyone here believes your version of RPO is something special? Certainly not the way you're selling it...

I've seen the same add all over the place here. Reminds me of HR-Village.
