Well said, Geoff. As the machines advance and even accelerate, only those recruiters that provided little real value in the first place should be worried.

Sean Sweet's Blog
A deeper talent pool for 2009 - for all sorts of reasons.
I had to jump in on a discussion over on ERE about the number and 'quality' (such a subjective term) of people now available on the market due to layoffs and the recession.
Read the piece, originally by Dr. Sullivan on January 5th, and a variety of spirited responses including mine here.

Twitter for sourcing and relationship building?
Have seen a lot of fuss, recently, about Twitter, including this well laid out story on cnet.

- Having trouble logging into my primary recruiting blog (also a Ning), "Canada Recruits." Have put some articles and work into it, but may shift over here in 2009. Apologies for the silence on this side.
