How HR Views Personal Branding
As someone who has worked as a Recruiter I understand how important social media is in finding quality job search candidates. I've used tools like chat rooms, online communities, blogs, Twitter, FaceBook, and even internet dating sites to source and place candidates. As a blogger, I have used Blogging4Jobs, my blog to develop an online personal and… Continue

The Rise of the Micro-Niche in the Great Recession
We've been discussing how the Great Recession started out as a massive credit collapse, resulting in a deflationary cascade. With declining wealth, incomes and revenues, people and corporations have had to embrace some extreme cost-cutting measures. As a result, the significant advances in technology over the last couple of decades are now being deployed in ways that are drastically changing the employment landscape.
Employment is not the only aspect of our economy that is being…

10m UK Mobile Internet Users
Over the last few weeks I have spoken to many people about mobile recruiting strategy. I believe we still have a number of marketing managers who don't believe that Mobile Internet is popular or
mainstream. I have one thing to say to anyone with that view - WAKE UP!
Not only has Mobile Internet arrived, it is growing - rapidly. Today there is an estimated 10m UK Mobile…

The Anti-Sale
Most people dislike being sold to. Gen Y like salesmen even less than baby-boomers. We’ve been interrupted by ads, annoyed by door-to-door and saturated by cold callers. Our mindset is on auto-response-NO…

Originally posted on SmashFly's Recruitment Marketing Blog.

Cranky Recruiter: Sense of Urgency or Wasting my Time
A few days ago I was talking to a man who was referred to me by a social media friend. He was interested in having me help him find a job. We spoke about his background, and possible jobs.
His background was not similar to positions I recruit on regularly so I gave him a little advice about who he should contact for jobs. I… Continue

Where to Start in Social Recruiting
"If you could only have one social network to use as your main tool in recruiting, which one would it be?" This question was deftly posed to the panel by Chris Hoyt, the ending keynote speaker for the event at which I presented last week. I was on a 
panel for Jobing.com's Spring Symposium with some colleagues,…

No Longer With the Company
With trepidation, I dialed the telephone number and asked to be connected to a candidate that I’ve been
working with for the past three months. Upon hearing the candidate’s name and
without hesitation, the receptionist replied: “Oh, he’s no longer with the
company”.
As I hung up…

Work your ATS like a Rib Bone
Being a Native Texan, I have eaten my share of ribs and I can tell you that they are one of the more expensive items at your local BBQ establishment. So, when I order them, I make sure I get all the meat off of them. With that being said, there is no easy way to segue from a discussion of Ribs to Applicant…

The Best Offense is a Good Defense - Retaining Your Best People By Fostering a Culture of Engagement
Like many pieces of industry jargon, people have been throwing “engagement” around at management meetings for a while now. It was the great new buzzword a few years ago and now it has become part of the corporate lexicon. But what does it really mean? Here’s one definition from the Conference Board's…

Social Recruiting IS NOT a New Concept
I began my recruiting career in 1994. At that time, the only "job board" was Dice.com and even it was a dial-up BB. Online recruiting wasn't even a common concept yet. From 1995 to Y2K the online recruiting space exploded. Nearly every corporate environment became familiar with online recruiting through the use of job boards, primarily. Those were pretty great for a while, because they were extra hands helping to source… Continue

Is SEO simply another Y2K? (Or how Shakespeare would have looked a right idiot if he were around today)
A slightly contentious blog this week, but hey, it's all about opinions. This is mine about SEO....
Hands up who remembers the Y2K ‘problem’, or the Millennium bug, as it was sometimes known? I do, as I had several clients who made a lot of money out of placing contractors into the City to ward off the Y2 evil that was set to haunt companies… Continue
