Now THAT is funny!!!! Sandra McCartt said:"It's not just one car," said Herman. "It's hundreds of them!"

Claudia Faust replied to Diana Luger's discussion 'Metrics Schemtrics'

The problem with this philosophy is that metrics, like legal contracts, are generally a non-issue when all is well. What about when it's not? Where do you begin to fix the problem? How do you benchmark below-average performance? Do you compare onl...

The Date Awaits

No, not the one wearing a suit and bearing flowers (oops, flashback, sorry), but the date of the infamous Smartrecruiters "dinner cooked in my home by a Master Chef," otherwise known as the "Yum Fest."

Lasse Sorensen is my chef of choice. We discovered the Master Chef from Denmark in a tiny town in Southern Illinois, while on one of our annual morel-hunting weekends. We lived in Chicago at the time and would cheat spring by three weeks by traveling down south around Easter time to scour the woo… Continue

In This Economy...

In this economy...

I won't bother getting up early, because there is no business anyway.

I won't make many calls, because - "Who is hiring?"

I'll go out to lunch with friends, because nothing is happening.

ARE YOU CREATING YOUR OWN RECESSION?

If you are thinking like this, you are.

I did some heavy business development today. Since everyone has been bellyaching about the economy, I didn't expect much.

Guess what - I was swamped. I had a tough time making my way through all the calls I nee… Continue

Thank You to SmartRecruiters.com!

I'm so pleased to have been awarded the prize in the Smart Recruiters contest!

Jason called today to let me know the good news.

I'm honored to have been selected and look forward to a Master Chef coming to cook for 6 of us in my home.

Thanks guys.

P.S. I checked out the free ATS (applicant tracking sytem) software) over at SmartRecruiters.com and registered. It looks promising.

What Makes Me a Smart Recruiter

Being a smart Recruiter means bringing your special skills and attributes to the table and using them to their full advantage.

Some people in recruiting excel in sales. They enjoy calling candidates and convincing them to take a look at an opportunity. Other Recruiters are great at networking. Still others enjoy the thrill of the hunt and tracking down names on-line.

"lastly, don't be afraid to help your candidates. We've all had candidates who talked too fast or too much, or peppered their conversations with too many ahs. You can coach them to improve how they present themselves". - No one is perfect on this globe either our candidate's, or our clients or sometimes we, as well...so, helping each other is good Idea.
