I can't see software replacing the 3rd party recruiter anytime soon. There's just so many variables - like personality - that a software service will not be able to pick up. I'd have to see this "heavily funded" recruiting model to really comment. What's the site/app?

I've heard this with many new hr technology companies...remember how the job boards like Monster were supposed to be the death of us? First thing I thought of when I read about this latest one is 'where do the candidates come from?' Technology is just one small piece of the recruiting puzzle.

Maren, can I be an actress?? Actually you'd be surprised what assessments, not all but some can tell. Anytime you'd like a sample, I can show you. They are cool as an augment to what we do, however I have seen excellent assessments of total jerks...so there you have it.

Agreed. I do think we need to take notice whenever a new player and concept arrives - as it does change the way our clients think, act and behave.....and people are people and will ALWAYS be needed, sometimes they just need some tools :) thanks for commenting.
