well, at that point, a company is a prospect, not a client, and prospects don't get to call the shots. I like Scott's comeback, and yes, if they still insist on the try before they buy, they will cause trouble later if they do engage your services..…
Wow, Rayanne...I am sorry for your loss.
for a long time now, I've made it a point to do just as you say - I let my people know I love them, because you never know what can happen..
Bountyjobs is like recruiting in real life..if you hook up with a hiring authority that thinks giving feedback quickly to recruiters is helpful to all parties, it's all good...but if you get one that can't or won't communicate for whatever reason, t…
Mom should've just told the dance instructor what was going on...or for that matter, the daughter should have taken on the responsibility herself..it's never too early for someone to act like a grownup. ..the kid isn't the first one to go to disneyl…
I like this;
"The lesson is a simple one, but often hard learned. Don't miss a chance. Don't fail at opportunity. Don't cower at possibility. Revel in life. Take joy where it can be found. Learn as if you were to live forever and live as if tomorro…
This guy has the best information on the "how to's" of cold calling:
As for recruiter- specific scripts and pitches, just sit there and think of why you would pick up the phone to begin with..you're the recruiter, just adapt you and what you want…
Excellent, Rayanne...at first, I thought: "aww crap, she's leaving"..
glad that's not the case.
KarenM - "Thomas.. if you remember I sent you a personal email, off line; in which I had mentioned to you that my comments had not been addressed to you - and actually your name had not even been mentioned within those comments.. My comments had add…
Really think so Karen? I seem to recall another thread where you considered my way of thinking to be a character flaw..or at least the start of the slippery slope towards the abandonment of ones moral compass.
I'll take consistency for 100 please,…
Would you be friend with the guy if you had met him outside of work?
how important is the guy? if his cause succeeds, how will it cost you? will it cost you?
if you really like the guy, and deem him important, flip him twenty bucks and tell him th…
this is just me, but complaining about egos in an environment where content is provided by people OPINING about things, is like saying the zoo would be a great place if it wasn't for all of the stinky animals and their smelly poop. can't have the co…
I liked this part:
"I decided to put my acting skills to work and walked through there like I was an attorney. I was actually asked a couple of times if I was an attorney. Me...,"
taken together with the fact you dictated the terms of engagement w…

The most important thing..
The other day, I was thinking back to a factory job I held from 1987 until 1995..I worked the afternoon shift at an aluminum casting foundry, where we made parts for things like autos, fighter jets, and tanks..
Anyway, my job was to take the rough edges off of the castings, done by holding the casting "just right" on a rotating belt of very coarse sandpaper..the belt moved fast enough that if one was careless or in a hurry, a casting could be destroyed in seconds, or worse yet, one's fingers co… Continue

Now THAT'S what I call social media
So I'm playing with one of those online resume searching deals ( CV fox for those of you keeping track), and about ten pages into my returns, I find a PDF that's actually an attendee list from a convention held by professionals within my specialty.
So, I'm going to like, socially reach out to them and see if I can't change someones life for the better.
Just thought I'd offer encouragement to the sourcers out there - keep on digging. :)

The bottom line - does it work?
" did the technique work? - then it was the right technique".
These words of wisdom came from my martial arts instructor..The point being it is fruitless to worry about adhering to a particular "way", when the goal is survival.
What does this have to do with recruiting you ask? Well, ones recruiting methodology most likely mirrors that of the people who taught you to recruit, and much like habits, methodologies have a direct impact on ones success,
