Holy crap, it’s been exactly 100 days since my last post. Wowzer. Things have been busy, which is good and bad I guess. So real quick here, I wanted to give my perspective on Google Buzz, and why I like it from a recruitment perspective.
Social media, blah blah blah. Sick of [...]

I talk about honesty a lot, I think it’s imperative in any kind of business. If you’re deceitful and untrustworthy as a consulting recruiter, nobody will work with you.

I was just on “vacation” a few months ago, and started thinking about how much I really don’t use vacation when I’m on vacation. If you’re like me, you’re constantly sucked in by work, no matter if you’re on vacation or at home eating dinner with the family. If duty calls (literally), so [...]

I think this is a valid question everyone needs to think about. I for one, tell it how it is. I think in the end it’s a good thing. However, I bring this question up because of a few recent situations at work and in life.
