Sandy Hook Connecticut
I live about 20 minutes from Sandy Hook CT. My wife and I have a family friend who attends Sandy Hook Elementary. He is OK. It is safe to say that our entire state is in horrified shock and deep, deep grief. Malls are busy yet quiet. People are driving slower and there seems to be a lot more courtesy. Parents are…

Day One At HRTech Conference - Chicago IL
Ryan and I made it out to Chicago with no problems other than my flight being an hour late. The weather is colder here compared to home but the city is bustling away. The Chicago marathon, Notre Dame playing Miami at Soldier Field, the Graph expo (large printing industry conference) and HR Tech are all going on at the same time. Fun!

My Path To Becoming A Recruiter
I did not tell my parents when I was 5 that someday I was going to be a recruiter. After high school I didn’t try to find Recruiting 101 classes. And when I graduated college I wasn’t applying for work at every local recruiting firm I could find. I fell into it. Just like a lot of us. I didn’t want to really sell anything I told myself. Yet every job has a selling side…

10 Reasons A Recruiter Kicks A Job Boards Ass
1. Find the passive jobs!
Often times recruiting firms and hiring companies will not go straight to the job board route due to time constraints and costs. They will not only source candidates internally but will make a quick call to a recruiter to see who is actively searching right now, or who is “keeping and eye out” for the right job.
2. Break into a company that you have been targeting
A professional recruiter will have contacts with the top employers as well as those… Continue

The Human Touch Is What Recruiting Is All About
When I first began my recruiting career I had an old school manager that explained to me how the job is really sales and that it is best to view your commodity as being people. I took it for what it was and went
on my way to begin building my desk. Sure there were a number of sales
techniques that I learned along the way. Some that worked, and others
that I need not mention again, but I never lost sight of that people
aspect. In fact I would often tell people that my…

Recruit Like You Work At Nordstrom
After a couple years in recruiting I started having successes. My manager at
the time was a big fan of companies that were superior in service. He
took me out with him one weekend because “you need some clothes kid”. I had the pleasure of shopping at Nordstrom. Not a regular thing for me. I was not accustomed to such products or stores but I had read and even more importantly heard about their customer service. Customer Service that is simple and of the highest… Continue
