Making sense of all your information

Posted on September 25, 2008 at 5:55pm 1 Comment 0 Likes

If your like me you have an account on Facebook, LinkedIn, MySpace, Twitter, Twhirl, TalentBar, RecruitingBlogs, WirelessJobs, Plaxo, Jobirn, Doostang, Jobthread, Spoke, Naymz, and RecruiterRockstar. Those are just the websites, my membership in user groups probably doubles that. Logging into each and every one of these sites could be a full time job. True relationship building gets lost in an effort to be the most connected.

Is it quality or quantity we are after? Or both? I am… Continue

But not every company has an identified culture, or at least not one that is a selling point when attracting top candidates. What sets you apart? How are you… Continue

A Positive Candidate Experience

Posted on July 23, 2008 at 11:13am 1 Comment 0 Likes

As a recruiter you have an important responsibility, one that should be understood and upheld at all times. You are the voice, the face, and the main point of contact for your company. More often than we care to admit we forget that our candidates are not a means to an end, that they are our clients as well. Regardless of wither a situation results in a hire or not, a positive candidate experience is a must every single time. I approach every conversation as an information gatherer and find the… Continue

The audience was very junior and not within the fields I needed. I have created the facebook profile but don't fully understand the search capabilities. How would you recommend searching on facebook?

At 1:43pm on July 17, 2008, Amanda McArthur (Edwards) said…: Hello fellow Seattlelite and Recruiter. I am certainly open to any tips regarding Facebook I'm just now starting to cultivate that site. Let me know if I can help with anything now or in the future.

Great to meet you!
