That is exciting news, Julia, but I really think you should consider a sequel to Pretty Woman in your spare time.
Great job with everything you've done in the past year, I hope you have continued success going forward.
Can Bobble Head's rule the world? probably not, but they can make you laugh your way to the top. Help us think of a creative way to use this idea to raise money for charity.
I know this moose. You know, I think I learned more from School House Rock than any class in my early years of school. Cartoons are an excellent way of teaching kids stuff, for sure. Good point Maureen (although I doubt the 18-24 year olds in th...
Every night my 2 yr old granddaughter and I watch th enoggin channel for about an hour (or two). In between the shows there's a charcater named "Moose A. Moose" who is teaching the little ones about conservation and "green". Turning off the 'puter...
I would suspect that might have a little to do with (compared to GenX) a MUCH larger percent of GenY is still living with their parents (or the funding of their parents) and not paying their own bills. Being responsible for the energy / utility bi...

Is recruiting just a bunch of SPAM? I don't think so.
I get tired of this, and I really want an answer from the people who send out lists of candidates to anonymous recruiters, like me every day.
So tell me, what exactly do you think you accomplish by sending me your best (insert technology here) developer? Perhaps you prefer the machine gun approach and send me a list of your 50 best candidates.
The message?
You have a list, probably a big list. I am guessing you are over-compensating with your big list to hide the lack of relationships you hav… Continue

Reflections on getting the most out of every conference you attend, or How I got the nickname "the girl that gets around"
I attend allot of conferences.
I think recruitfest was the most profitable one for me last year.
In this interview with Kathleen Kurke, President of the Pinnacle Society, we discuss attending conferences.
Hear some of my tips on how to get the most out of any conference you attend, and get a glimpse into my philosophy on networking at social events like recruitfest09!
Hope to see you there.

RecruitFest! 09 How I made 50,000 from going last year.
RecruitFest! 2009
It makes me smile every time I post that.
I was very tentative about going last year. It would make my 4th conference in as many months and that seemed a bit hard to justify just from a time off perspective, let alone the costs involved. Working for myself means that I… Continue

RecruitFest! 09 reflections of the past
How exciting is that? But technically you don't actually "speak"speak at RF. It is a dialog, a conversation, the "UN-conference". I went to it last year, not really knowing another person who was attending, at least nobody I had met in person. Jason Davis went out of his way to… Continue

Uma Thurman had it right
I am overwhelmed with to-do lists. We have become so dependent on them, that we even put things on them that we have already done JUST so we can cross them off! Admit it, you know you have done it or thought of it.
Well, I just realized that simple is much better here and I am sharing my newly found wisdom. Keeping focus on what is important is so hard to do when things are hard, when you have difficult calls to make. If Uma can do it, so can you.. If you want someone to help hold you accountab… Continue
