Mike Stallfus commented on Gino Conti's blog post 'Never have another offer declined again!'
while i consider sarcasm a key part of my own personality i have discovered that it doesn't travel well through the internet. Turns comments that should be chuckled at into "duh" statements.
Mike Stallfus replied to Becky Metcalf's discussion 'Asking the tough questions...'
This has been a fascinating discussion. i have often considered the dichotomy that a recruiter faces. We are paid by the employer but are trying to gain the trust of the candidate. So who do we really represent when we broker these deals?…
Mike Stallfus commented on Duane Roberts's blog post 'What’s the BIG DEAL about your RESUME?'
one more suggestion about resumes, and this should be intuitive - one size definitely doesn't fit all! A generic one for Monster is fine but if you are applying to a specific job tailor it to fit. i have had many candidates send me general…
Mike Stallfus commented on Gino Conti's blog post 'Never have another offer declined again!'
Being a career counselor seems an intuitive part of the job. Just being honest with a candidate goes a long way to close, but as long as this business involves a product with a mind off it's own 100% closing is a dream. Dan had it right -…

I noticed you are in Atlanta, as am I. Wanted to connect and share thoughts on the state of the market (I am seeing a definite slowdown). Ping me when you can - thanks!

- The contracting/consulting arena is getting very difficult for the small operators. The only success I have been having is when I partner with a bigger player. I see the market for Technical resources continuing to be bullish but the number of players is getting cut down. I have turned my focus to Permanent Engineering positions. These positions are still mostly filled by domestic talent and the permanent status makes my value as a recruiter much more important. I don't like the body shop feel of the VMS contracting model
Try to stay optimistic. and enjoy the holiday!

Robin Borough said… - Thanks Mike, for your honest comment to my recent blog posting. I do hope others also share their experiences. Ours have been identical to yours.
So tell me, how do you see business this year and next? Unfortunately, we were heavily invested in a national Telco who went VMS (thus my agony described in the blog). I've been at this for 13 years and I'm usually the optimist in the group - having weathered many recessions. But this one seems to have knocked the wind out of me.
Anyway - enjoy the rest of your day and let's continue the dialogue! Robin.
