		<title>Be Tempted.  The Temp-to-Hire Recruiting Strategy Holds Steady.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A variety of challenges can be overcome by employing a hiring approach dating back almost 65 years – the temporary worker.  The length of time to recruit for an open position may not be a luxury you have or perhaps you are unsure of exactly what type of candidate is needed to fill your vacancy.  Whatever the situation, starting an employee in a temp-to-hire situation could possibly be in the best interests of your company. If you haven’t considered it before, now is the time.

		<title>Suit Required.  How Dress Codes May Affect the Quantity or Quality of Interested Candidates.</title>

This vacancy needs to be filled quickly and being the diligent hiring manager that you are, the position is soon posted in every possible location.  Resumes begin pouring in and before you can say “Talent Acquisition”, a surmounting pile of hundreds of aspiring employees is awaiting judgment.

		<title>C’s Make Degrees. Are You Filtering Good Candidates With GPAs Below 3.0?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[For those of us who have been required, scratch that, privileged, enough to recruit college students, screening resumes can be…interesting.  You scan a resume, review the candidate’s education, and notice they conveniently left off their GPA.  Uh-oh.  They might as well list “didn’t study enough” under the activities and interests section.  What is often overlooked, however, is for those that may not have studied as hard, the extracurricular activities list is typically in abundance.  What do you make of that?  If they weren’t studying, they were filling their schedules with something else.  It’s the recruiter’s job to find out what it was and whether or not the skills acquired from those interests are of any value to an organization.

		<title>WHO&#8217;S WHO: Woo-hoo or pooh-pooh? Is there any virtue in Vanity Publishing?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Last week I received a resume from a candidate who listed in the “Accomplishments” section of his resume that he had been named in the 2009 Who’s Who in America’s Colleges and Universities. Upon reading this line, I had a flashback to my own baccalaureate transition and a similar “honor” that I once also claimed. I recalled the inflated pride as this lofty commendation with which I had been bestowed came to life within the hallowed pages of this renowned volume, pride which was smashed to smithereens when I realized that my twenty-five hard earned bucks had purchased me my own memoriam of a teensy line amongst thousands of other teensy lines and a photo one-sixth the size of a postage stamp. File that lesson under “G” for Gullible.

		<title>Taking a Holistic Approach to Recruitment</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Many businesses based their recruitment efforts on a selective and sophisticated process whereby the company attempts to gage whether a potential employee has the requisite skill set and history of accomplishment to be effective in the open position.  However, there is a wealth or research which points to the fact that nearly 75% of new hires do not remain in their position after a three month period.  It is most often the case that new employee leave a company, not because of the job responsibilities in and of themselves, but because there is some type of disconnect between the suitability of the employee to the overall work environment.]]></description>

		<title>Blame-A-Nitus: The very fastest way to destroy your career when you have been let go from your job</title>

I myself have been in a few very bad situations with my job on the line and have handled things both very well and very badly, which is what this article is about. I guess it was about 8 years ago now that I almost ended my career with what we will call blame-a-nitus.

		<title>INSIDE REFERRAL CANDIDATES – birds of a feather and all that fluff.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Two of the worst interviews I can recall in my recent history were both referred from one of my most successful, highest producing employees. Both candidates were abrasive, arrogant, and unfriendly, and neither interview lasted very long. At first the disparity between the unpleasant applicants and the accomplished referring employee left me somewhat perplexed. But [...]]]></description>

		<title>SHARE IF YOU DARE. What is the value of prior employment references?</title>

		<description><![CDATA[This woman’s eyes were so scary, they made me shudder. Her toothy rectangle of a smile was frozen under a clearly cosmetically enhanced nose which formed the T-square support for a pair of repulsively bulbous orbs. I think she must have been a Crappie fish in a former life. When I was flipping through a [...]]]></description>

		<title>STRADDLING THE EVER WIDENING SKILLS GAP</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Do mistakes on resumes and cover letters really matter? I am unashamed to admit it; I am a grammar freak. Maybe it can be blamed upon genetics (my mother used to diagram complex sentences for fun) or upon my authoritarian yet somehow endearing English professor, Mrs. Stolpe (may she rest in peace).
