Do Video Resumes Really Add to Your Brand?

Do Video Resumes Really Add to Your Brand? »

“I’m thinking about hiring a guy to do a video resume for me” one of my senior executive clients said recently to me in a career coaching session. These days 91% of successful coaching is done via the telephone, and that was the case now, I was on the phone with my client; It was a good thing too because my jaw dropped as I quickly organized my thoughts like papers in file that had just fallen on the floor.

Recruiters – Stop With The Bad Job Write-Ups

Recruiting Daily is pleased to once again welcome back our good friend and guest blogger this week – Job Seeker Extraordinaire

I’m back………….

The last time I had the opportunity to speak with Recruiting Daily readers I asked what was so wrong with being called a recruiter. Since that post I have still seen many different titles for recruiters other then simply ‘recruiter’, but I will let that rant live another day. Today I have a new question for all the recruiters out there- why so many bad job write ups? I get the bait and switch that recruiters use to get candidates to reach out, but some of the recent job descriptions that I have seen and responded to are just flat out misleading. Where do you draw the line?

‘Just outside NYC‘……in Newberg? It appears someone was a bit off with their mileage scale.

‘Small city charm‘…..Not sure there is such a thing

‘Close to Metro‘……..Is what exactly? I learn the job is two hours from nearest metropolitan area.

‘Sportsman Paradise‘……One of my personal favorites. I am not not sure what this one even means, but I see it often tucked away with other catchy marketing terms.
