Tony Palm commented on Isabelle Shelby's blog post 'Techniques to remember a Candidate'

Tony Palm commented on Robert Wright's blog post 'Expectation of Service - The Customer Loyalty Myth in Recruitment'

Tony Palm commented on Scott Wintrip's blog post 'Do You Suffer from NPS?'

"Life without email is beyond my ability to comprehend; except when trying to communicate with my 4 children (ages 29 - 19).   The oldest is good with e/m, the middle 2 not so much, and the youngest is totally out of it. So if I find myself in…"
