Net Natives – so what exactly is it that you do…?

February 21, 2010 – 5:25 pm

I’ve been involved in recruitment for 16 years and set up my recruitment business nearly 2 years ago, yet I still struggle to know what to say when people (alright, my Mum) asks, “So, what sort of business are you?”. Our unique way of looking at recruitment is so pioneering it’s hard to put us [...]

Can Twitter end the recession?

August 19, 2009 – 8:25 am

Twitter’s is never out of the news, whether with rallying cries against those damn Yankees criticising the NHS or the power of citizen journalism helping mobilise radical thought in Iran.

July 6, 2009 – 8:48 am

I wrote a post back in April about this subject and my concerns over certain “experts” involvement in social media and recruitment and how the subject has not, and possibly, cannot define itself due to the ; changing nature of the medium concerns over some legal issues the brand is represented by personalities who can [...]

social media and recruitment

June 23, 2009 – 12:25 pm

Posted April 29th 2009 This is just a small post this one, but one I thought would be timely considering that the focus for the onrec conference is social media and that there is a new social media in recruitment conference soon to be held.
