I think there will be a significant amount of backlash... I agree with the one comment about monetizing bathroom tweets to get anywhere... Should be interesting to see where this goes.

I do not think they are dead -- nor will they be any time soon. I think we may be seeing new social sites morph into the job board category...but the basic need and value proposition of the job boards looks like a staple in our industry that is no...

Thanks for sharing Virginia Heffernan’s blog. I was shaking my head yes until she shared Sterling’s postulate…not sure I can agree with him. While provocative, the idea that social networking is a symbol of poverty - - poverty born out a dependenc...

pam claughton commented on Bridgette Chambers's blog post 'Should your resume talk about you...or your company?'
I think it can be a good idea to include the information, but you don't need to take three lines to do it, just incorporate into the job description so it's all together. Something like, "Joined XYZ as employee number 20, helped launch two new pro...

Very timely and great topic considering the current economy and the HUGE influx of candidates to the market. When I am reviewing a resume, I want the focus on the candidate and his or her accomplishments as they relate to my opportunity. The major...

Is Twitter ready for pay for play functionality?

Twitter Confirms Paid Pro Accounts On The Way…not a surprise. Take a look at this article that provides some insight into coming paid super user accounts on Twitter. The article invited readers to post features they would pay to have on Twitter; at the time of this posting, there were 74 comments.

So question, is Twitter ready for pay for play functionality?

Should your resume talk about you...or your company?

Two pages and twenty seconds is pretty much what a job seeker has to catch the attention of a recruiter that can match them to the right opportunity. Obviously, much more time goes into the candidate that survives the cursory resume review…but let’s not go there yet. Let’s stay focused on the resume as the initial interest-grabbing tool.

In a previous blog, a post from a recruiter mentioned what she would want to see on the job seeker's resume:

“I want to see a resume with at least three li… Continue

IS EVERYONE REALLY A ROCKSTAR?

60% of average VP level candidates believe that they would rank within the top 10 candidates of an executive level job search. As recruiters, do you AGREE? Please cast a vote - http://polls.linkedin.com/p/31928/dvieq

If 100 job seekers were surveyed and responded that they believed they would rank in the top 10 candidates of a job search, would you challenge them? Are job seekers all that stellar and talented?

I am the “Admin” for the Recruiters On LinkedIn group, www.recruitingblogs.com/group/linkedin. You have recently joined and this is a "welcome" to the group and "here is how it works".


Over the past year I have been experimenting how best to facilitate members being able to connect with each other. Some want to connect with everyone and some are looking for a few meaningful connections.


1-2 times per week I send a group introduction message with 10-15 new members and reintroducing others.


What this means for you is simple, do you wish to be introduced to the group?


You have 4 options from which to choose:


(A) “Open Networker” with name, email address, and LinkedIn URL as you want to connect with anyone and everyone.


(B) “General Introduction” with name and LinkedIn URL as you are specific about who you want to connect with.


(C) “Lurker” no announcement will be made as you want to be on the sidelines connecting with people as you wish.


(D) “Super Open Networker” which is (A) plus having your contact information on the group page.


A caution on the “Open Networker”, you may be inundated with invitations to connect. For some this is exactly what they are hoping for and others this could be a pain.


I do ask, if you receive invitations from members you do not want to connect with that you “Archive” the message versus “I don’t know” so the sender is not penalized by LinkedIn although how you handle this is up to you.


Again your options are (A), (B), (C), (D).


Please include your LinkedIn URL and email address you prefer to receive invitations and send to paul@mnheadhunter.com


Thank you for your time.


P.
