I’m not being dramatic when I say that I friggin’ love recruiting. I just think it’s just too bad that more people don’t seem to recognize the amount of artistry involved in sourcing, screening and selection.

Sorry, I can’t tell you how to get your resume looked at by a recruiter I don’t know at a company I know nothing about – although I can tell you how to bat at least a little better than average, there’s no silver bullet for sourcing for candidates or searching for jobs. Recruiting Never Rests.
