Stephen Smith commented on Nick Lagos's blog post 'Industry Leader Reports Study Findings- "Recruiters are Lazy Uncaring Dolts!"'"It's a fascinating conundrum.

In order to achieve that all important differentiation, modern software is welcomed with open arms, which further perpetuates the problem of an…"
Nick Lagos commented on Nick Lagos's blog post 'Industry Leader Reports Study Findings- "Recruiters are Lazy Uncaring Dolts!"'"@Stephen: I'm not so worried about the "thankless" nature (when was the last time you "thanked" your power company, but boy, don't take away my voltz!). I am however curious to know if we as recruiters are…"
Stephen Smith commented on Nick Lagos's blog post 'Industry Leader Reports Study Findings- "Recruiters are Lazy Uncaring Dolts!"'"I must confess that I had to run a quick Google search on 'dolt', but the context was obvious from the preceding 'lazy , uncaring' description!
In all seriousness, recruitment can often be a thankless task, especially with firms…"

Ike Davis, 1st baseman for the NY Mets hit his 2nd home run this year, a 3 run homer against the Atlanta Braves last night, possibly reversing a “slow start” to his season in grand fashion. To wit, Gary Cohen, one of my favorite sports announcers of all time commented (paraphrase here) “Ike handles both his successes and failures the same way, his demeanor does not change, he’s got the perfect personality for Major League Baseball”.
