My Future in Recruiting
My future in recruiting is a direct result of what I do on my desk today. This very moment. My next call. My next email. My next ............
I've watched (and participated) as Social Media has become one giant magnet for any/all types of "talent" professionals. The phrase "early adoption" keeps coming up. "You better learn this - it's not going away." or "Once your clients and candidates embrace these tools - you'll be glad you were ahead of the curve!"
It didn't take me long to realize I am not paid by being where things are going to be "in the future". I am paid to get things done IN THE PRESENT.
Like today.
Like now.
If I am not generating revenue now - I will have no future.

Third party? I have a hard time leaving the first party - let alone the second. A third party would kill me. (I'm old.)
