Terra posted a blog postTHE INFAMOUS BLACK HOLE
Candidates often complain that they never hear back when they send their resume. I have to admit I generally reply to everyone out of respect and understanding that during these difficult times, everyone deserves to be heard (or at least their resume responded to). The reason I say generally is that I have continued to place ads where I not only ask for specific requirements, I also have been clear that people should NOT APPLY if they do not meet those requirements. Since I read all resumes…See More
Terra commented on KKenner's blog post 'When the Candidate asks..."Why didn't you call me?'"I always respond through email with this:
We have received your resume. We will be reviewing all resumes and contact those candidates that our clients are interested in seeing. We understand how difficult it is not to receive a verbal response to…"
Terra commented on Russell White's blog post 'Why Recruiters Get A Bad Rep'"How hard is it is to send off a quick response, small or large (we are small by the way). Below is what I write to candidates, it simple, does not make promises and I have received excellent feedback from candidates. I do tweak it…"
Terra commented on Russell White's blog post 'Why Recruiters Get A Bad Rep'"Unfortunately it looks like you are preaching to the choir, I, like everyone else here, have always responded, and the irony of this is that the only ones, so far, responding to this blog are the ones who respond to the resumes.

Terra replied to Kevin Zoch's discussion 'One Recruiting tool you could NOT do without'"My Database, it consists of over 30,000 candidates, some active, some not. I always will go there first for either referrals or viable candidates. It date back 15 years. After that I will go to Linkedin"
Terra commented on Megan Flynn's blog post 'Another Recruiter Sullying Our Good Name'"
Thank you, Trish; I was going to write something similar. I would also add, that with today’s market, it may be more beneficial to be more diplomatic, my basic rule of thumb is, and “Be nice" you never know who can ultimately…"
Terra commented on Drue De Angelis's blog post 'The Problem with Recruiters!'"
Psychology 101 – Often people see the world through their own eyes – and it looks like you may be doing just that, so I suggest you look to yourself not to others. Based on your theory that would mean everyone who was accused of a…"
Terra commented on Drue De Angelis's blog post 'The Problem with Recruiters!'"
I don't understand why you are writing this, since based on your Linkedin profile, you are also a recruiter. The only reason I can see for another recruiter to write something so damming is to make themselves look good, so I am not…"
Terra replied to Tim Spagnola's discussion 'Question of the day: How do you handle the candidate who doesn't stop talking?'" I usually tell them, they lost me. Since I am an agency recruiter, my job is to help them with their interviewing skills. I also advise them to answer the question first and then if they feel the need to explain the answer they…"
Terra replied to Tim Spagnola's discussion 'Question of the Day: What word or phrase do your candidates use that drive you crazy?'"
So many and so little room. My all time favorite is "Orientated" of course there are those who "stood at home today" and some who do not know how to "programize a phone". I agree with Lisa "you…"
Terra replied to Terry Starr's discussion 'Top 8 Techniques to Improve Your Tech Job Postings'"
I usually end up writing most of my client’s descriptions, I then send it to them to agree or disagree, and this often saves them time and helps them focus on what they need. But I agree, most of our clients know, we…"
Terra replied to Tim Spagnola's discussion 'Question of the day: Can a resume gap deem a candidate unworkable?'"
I agree 100% with Christopher, especially now a-days. The only thing is, people can work, just not in their field, at least till things change. My clients like to know peoples skills are up-to-date, a lot changes in two years, so…"
Terra replied to Mike Auton's discussion 'Split fee's'"We have a database of over 20,000 candidates so I teach them how to filter what I need and ask that they email and call. Also inputting any new resumes I find. Plus if they are good having them do searches on line and send you the…"
