If people didn't answer because they might have been on holiday you should probably have included what your original request was. I don't remember reading it, and usually do not go back and look through every post I missed. Of course, I'm not a corporate recruiter anyway.

Thanks Amber.  How do I go about reposting it?  Is it as simple as copy and paste?

Theresa,
As I recall your blog was an attempt to place a candidate by asking corporate recruiters to contact you for his resume. You normally won't get any response from anyone to a blog marketing a candidate. There may be a group for that but posting jobs or posting trying to place a candidate on a discussion group will seldom get results. It is just considered marketing and not anything that generates comments. Hope that helps.

Hmm that is a shame this is a great candidate and was more looking for help from someone that might want to reach out to this person.  I am not looking for any fee just networking with someone that may specialize in this area that could help.

Oh well I will let the person know and will work on some other way.

Hi Theresa - I'm a corporate recruiter and I remember seeing that blog post... to be honest I didn't see anything in your write up of the candidate that would make him a fit for me and my organization. Not to say he's not a great candidate, but I just didn't have anything helpful to add. Targeted messages to recruiters at companies that might need his skill set will probably get you more response.

Thanks Amy.  I appreciate your response.

Opps I guess I mean't to add if some one also works with companies as an outside recruiter that might be interested in his resume that would work too.
