Jerry Albright commented on Denise K. White's blog post 'Creating Structure'
Denise - from what I can tell you have been hired by someone who has heard there is some pot of gold to be found in the "H1B Shuffle" Industry.  There is no "human" contact in that world to speak of.  It is entirely…

Jerry Albright replied to Tim Spagnola's discussion 'Question of the day: How do you handle the candidate who doesn't stop talking?'
Just to clarify my thought here - someone who talks entirely too much is going to be someone who talks entirely too much 5 minutes into the interview when everything you've "consulted" on with them is pretty much out the window. Over…

Jerry Albright replied to Tim Spagnola's discussion 'Question of the day: How do you handle the candidate who doesn't stop talking?'
I use to practice one of the most thorough "prep" approaches in the industry.  It would be hard to think of anything I did not go over - in some cases multiple times- prior to each send out.  I was just so darn proud of myself -…

I think I might be able to get you some global exposure in the Recruiting Community (if you want it.)

Posted on January 24, 2012 at 2:35pm 9 Comments

There is a ton of crap vying for our attention on a minute by minute basis.  Facebook.  Linkedin.  Email.  Your cell phone alerts.  Phone ringing.  The list is endless.

You know what you need to do on Wednesday between 12 and 1 EST? You need to listed to The Recruiting Animal Show!

Here is an even cooler idea:  Be a guest!  Numerous careers have been made using an appearance on this show as a…

I don't work with HR.....

Posted on October 20, 2011 at 10:36am 19 Comments

........and I have the Little Mrs. wait in the car while I go into the bank and talk about the important stuff.

 

How old are you?  Where have you been the past decade?  Watching All in the Family reruns every night?  They call me old school – but I’m starting to wonder if I no longer deserve that label.  Perhaps you’re the one more deserving…….

 

Don’t work with HR?  What clients do you work with?  The mechanic down the street?  Your cousin’s Insurance agency? …

Are you a good fit for this job?

Posted on October 3, 2011 at 8:32am 25 Comments

Who – me? You’re asking me if I’m a good fit for your job?

 

Well gimme a minute. You know what I do, right? I’m a recruiter! Nearly every person who follows you is a recruiter, resume coach, PR firm, ATS guy or HR lady. This is one giant fishbowl of people who DO NOT do what your client needs. So why do you keep up the exercise?

 

Remember waaaaaaaayyyy back a few years ago before social media? Remember how you actually had to put together a…

Why am I so bugged by these spammers?

Posted on September 23, 2011 at 1:30pm 4 Comments

Look - I get it.  We all hope that somewhere, some time a client is going to become aware of what we do and connect with us on it.  I'm in sales.  I'm all about it.



But here's what bugs me.  I was thinking about this a few minutes ago while finishing off a whole chicken from the WalMart deli. (I started it last night by the way.....)

 

So someone wants to slip an ad in here.  What's the big deal?  Am I so uptight that my eyes can not deal with someone wanting to…

People Lie. You know that, don't you?

Just going through some of my earlier material and thought you might enjoy this one from a few year ago. So my apologies to the 4 people who have already seen this..........

Changing jobs is tough on people. They’re usually not comfortable with it – no matter…

Thanks for the invite.  I am a part of a couple of forums, however this appears to have the best people and insight related to most of the core subject matters we deal with as a company daily.  I have seen your comments, posts, etc and have enjoyed reading your insight.
