In addition, the recruiter set up an interview without prior discussion and the candidate was notified by the company a day prior. If this wasn’t bad enough, the candidate, who graciously accepted the interview, was then made an offer significantly LESS than his current compensation. This, by the way, is a…See More

The Chase

It’s the toughest part of any marketing/sales professional’s job. Tracking down and engaging your target client.In a world full of information overload, you cast out the lure hoping for a nibble that turns into a bite.Interesting how even with email, text messaging, Twitter, Linked In, Facebook, et al., communication between individuals is even more cat and mouse than ever. We are all bombarded with promises, solicitations, inquiries and demands. No wonder more and more folks decide to turn off…See More

"I'll be happy to just see the long awaited & recently promised iphone/ipad app at this point. I do hope cross platform/browser capabilities are truly on the way. Enjoy BH, but frustrated in the lagging interfaces."

Death of a Salesman - not.

As the job market continues to heat up, there’s lots of buzz in social media on how to access, recruit and secure ‘passive’ talent.Couldn’t help but notice the same old claims of the death of the recruiting profession and how social media would funnel interested candidates into a company’s arms through effective branding, internal recruiting, great ads, etc. so they no longer would have to pay those pesky external recruiting fees.It seems I’ve heard claims of the death of my profession before.…See More
