Kenneth Peck commented on Darryl Moore's blog post 'Risks to Recruiters in Candidate Social Media'"Like this article because it points out the dangers for job seekers using social media to find a job, because the hiring source is using social media as a screening source not a hiring source.
But there is one more negative that every job seeker…"
Kenneth Peck commented on Chris Bailey's blog post 'Why job boards will never replace good recruiters'"Good article on why 3rd party recruiters are an important resource."
Kenneth Peck replied to Tim Spagnola's discussion 'Question of the day: Have you ever caught a candidate lying on their resume?'"Gee! I like the article. It is a good test to determine if you are a seasoned recruiter or a beginner. I cannot imagine a seasoned recruiter not having caught resume lies. Most of the time the lies are caught when they send…"

You're describing a nightmare scenario.
My thoughts...doesn't your email set-up notify you when your emails are received and opened?
It also seems to me that besides phone conversations with your client--you should…"
