It doesn't happen often, but every now and then you are made aware of an article that you just know will become a new and critical tool in your search best practices toolbox (thank you, now forgotten LinkedIn contact who first made me aware of this gem).



That is exactly what I thought when I read The Washington Post article by freelance…

Most of you answered "No one."



Should that really be your answer?



This Saturday I met with my Board of Directors in Chicago for the first of three meetings we will have this year. I was exhausted after our day of hard work together, which of course was… Continue

Why Do They Always Get a Raise Right Before the Offer?

Posted on February 1, 2010 at 3:15pm 7 Comments

Why is it that candidates ALWAYS seem to get a review, raise, additional responsibilities right before your client is about to make them an offer?

This should never happen.



We, as third party search professionals, shouldn’t let it… Continue

Non-competes are BS (IMHO). Nike tried that when we recruited their CIO Gap years ago. They sent a threatening letter to the candidate which was never acted upon. I think the key thing to remember here is that anytime you use the internet, an…

Jeff,

Great to here your presentations at the Fordyce Forum. Cool to actually see the "punk" down below;)

Do you have a platform that you visit,blog or post the most regularly? We are 1st degree connections on Linkedin and I've enjoyed following your Q&A there. Hope to connect here.

Phil-the term "punk" is said with the greatest respect!

Hi Jeff

I recently launched "Want to be a Big Biller?" a social network for recruiters looking to raise the bar!

I'm an admirer of your presentations, videos, discussions etc and would love to see you as a member of the global community we are trying to build :-)

Please feel free to upload tools you think would benefit recruiters looking to advance themselves, start discussions and indeed mentor....

Hope to see you there?

Gavin
