TUESDAY, Nov. 18th
Lance Haun is an HR Generalist and covers All Things HR. Join Lance for a lively discussion this week on his topic:

"How Invasive is Your Background Check Process?"

With the Obama administration opening up application for appointed positions, they have also opened up one of the most invasive application processes in history. 63 questions that delve into the contents of your online activity, financial information and even contents of personal diaries. How appropriate is this for this particular situation and how much should you be going into?

THURSDAY, Nov. 13th
Jerry Albright heads up his own recruitment agency and is also the founder of Verbal Summary. Jerry covers topics around Agency Recruitment and his topic this weeks is:

"The Importance of Having a System and Process in Place"

What's on Jerry's mind?
I've found that any time I get "off track" with my desk it is because I have not stuck with the process that has made me productive. Topics for our Chat will include the downfall of shortcuts, "too good to be true" scenarios (which always are) and other things that take you away from what works best for YOU.

You can also find Jerry online HERE!

Join Talent Talk Cafe with our guest hosts Lance and Jerry and engage with the RecruitingBlogs.com community for two fantastic discussion.

Cheers to a great week!

It should be an interesting discussion at 3PM EST/Noon PST
The FBI is spending $1 billion to build the world's largest computer database of peoples' physical characteristics. It will give the U.S. government unprecedented abilities to identify individuals in the United States and abroad. Digital images of faces, fingerprints and palm patterns are already flowing into FBI systems. In the coming years, law enforcement authorities around the world will be able to rely on iris patterns, face-shape data, scars and perhaps even the unique ways people walk and talk, to solve crimes and identify criminals and terrorists. The FBI will also retain, upon request by employers, the fingerprints of employees who have undergone pre-employment criminal background search so the employers can be notified if employees have brushes with the law.
The increasing use of biometrics for identification is raising questions about the ability of Americans to avoid unwanted scrutiny. It is drawing criticism from those who worry that people's bodies will become de facto national identification cards. "It's enabling the Always On Surveillance Society."
