MUST BE PRESENT TO WIN

Popularized by "mad men" marketing wonks in days gone by, "must be present to win" is the tag line you've heard a thousand times in contest rules. Face it, no one is going to hand you the keys to the pretty sports car in the window based on you scribbling your name on the equivalent of a cocktail napkin - you have to be there when the drawing is conducted with legitimate identification at the ready. With the evolution of online media, being "present" has taken on new meaning. With the a few scre… Continue

Alisa Tazioli commented on Ron Cottick's blog post 'Do you "KIS" with your candidate's resume?'

Valentino's remarks certainly hit home with me, I agree wholeheartedly. Sarah as I read through your post again I am not sure how you draw the conclusion that Gen Y is somehow different in expecting to change culture. As I reflect on boomers (my gen…
