When does the cost of petrol actually kick in?Hi, Totally off topic related question. On the weekend I was on my way to a function and doing what I normally do, decided to fill up the car with Petrol. Any way, on the board (The one that shows everyone the current cost) at the time it was displaying $1.12 per / liter. I drove in, waited to get my petrol (line of 3 other cars). When I finally got to the tank, just as I went to reach for the pump, the price changed from $1.12 to $1.39. I went into the service station and the guy informed me that the fact that I waited for as long as I did and the fact that there was the price displayed on the board didn’t make any difference. Can anyone please tell me at what time the petrol price is actually applied? If I am in line, and the whole time it is the lower price, and then when I go to pick up the tank, when does the price kick in?

Tags: awards, board, Honour, Industry Chat, job, job-boards, niche, profession, Recruitment Agencies, result Calling HP’s CEO Hire a “Curious Choice” = “They Better Be Right”When HP fired Mark Hurd in August, everyone had an opinion about whether it was a good HR move or not. Late Thursday, HP’s board announced that they had hired Léo Apotheker as Hurd’s replacement to be President and CEO, and early opinions on the wisdom of this choice are not kind. Here is the background: Apotheker worked for 20 years at SAP, “left voluntarily” last year (quotation marks from article) and then HP’s board hired him over front-running internal and external candidates. Almost immediately, Fortune ran an article announcing the decision with a headline calling it a “curious choice.” Here’s a tip to the young talent professionals out there: When Fortune describes a hire you make as “curious,” it’s not a compliment. It translates to, “You better be right.” From Fortune : HP's board of directors could have taken the easy way. It could have named a CEO with a proven track record of growth or innovation. Experience that spanned the bulk of HP's revenue base would have been a plus too. It could have promoted someone from within. It might have found a young, up-and-coming executive at a major competitor who was chomping at the bit to be a CEO but was blocked by one of the old guys at the top. It could have found someone with a job… It didn't. Yikes. HP’s board just went out on a limb with this hire, big time. A few sources in the article called the choice “idiotic” and “astonishing.” The decision makers just hired a guy who “has little that makes him an obvious choice to head what has become the world's largest technology company by revenue.” I obviously was not in the room, but here's my take. When you make a call like this, it’s typically for one of a few reasons: Change for change sake. You have decided that you need enterprise wide change. Congratulations, you can now tell people that you “went outside the box.” Way outside. You value the company he worked for more than him . It happens. SAP is a player, so HP might be buying his big company background and weighing it more heavily than his lack of direct experience. Recognize this is a hiring bias and hope it pays off. The candidate showed you something no one else sees. If it works, you’re a visionary. Fail, and you’re like the guy who hired Lane Kiffin to coach Tennessee—when it went bad, that hire started a riot . Seriously, they had a riot. Now, I have no idea if Apotheker is a good choice or not—I am just looking at this deal from the perspective of the talent pro. When you make a high profile hire like this one, you know buzz is coming. When the play is “bizarre,” as Barron’s describes it , you need to expect some questions, and buzz like this does not really set up the person you hired to succeed. That’s very bad news—people-burning-mattresses-while-singing-Rocky Top type of bad news—for whomever led the hiring effort. Bottom line: HP’s board better be right about this hire… or things might get even more “curious.” Editor's Note - This guest post is brought to you by R.J. Morris, a staffing/talent acquisition director for McCarthy Building Companies based out of STL. Like many others in the FOT clan, he's a sports nut who can endlessly draw the parallels between athletes, sports and the talent management game. I know, I know, as if we needed more of that. Ha. So will FOT call him up for the big show after this post? I guess we'll have to wait and see… We'll call this one a try-out for now. Read the original here:

Nearly all job board software restricts the advertiser from placing HTML embedded code into job ads. So, wouldn’t it be cool if you can just paste a URL and it automatically creates the embedded object without having the user copy and paste the code?

What I found particularly interesting was an argument put forward by Geoff Jennings that suggested that the BBS system (ie, the job board model as it stood today was a flawed model moving forward into the future and was ultimately destined for failure). The interviewer was somewhat cavalier and dismissive with Geoff’s thoughts and I felt that overall Geoff deserved more respect especially considering his previous career working for Careerone in such a senior capacity. In terms of tools like LinkedIN and other networking products, there is no doubt of the social advantage they create in relation to creating quality networks within the professional market. In fact, networks is what it’s all about and LinkedIN’s incredible growth is a sure sign that this is where the market is heading. However, there remains one simple and single flaw to the model of LinkedIn that can never be overcome. It is the following statement – “He’ll work well with you because.,..” In truth, the job board portals serve their place. That place is essentially for satisfying mid to low level positions that are not mission critical or business dependent vacancies. In fact, any client who has a vacancy which is easily filled shouldn’t waste their time or money on a recruiter when they only need to spend $250.00 on Seek. However, the value of a good search or recruitment consultant will never be replaced by tools like LinkedIN, Seek, Mycareer or Careerone. Why? Simple – let me explain. A good recruiter has a strong network and “knows” implicitly who is good and who is not. He/She becomes a partner to his/her client with the intent on helping find the very best candidate in the market. In short, this value cannot be replaced by pro-active candidates looking to apply for jobs or happily accepting LinkedIn invitations. In terms of Geoff’s argument, I’m not so sure. What I will say is that if your business model is simply advertising, drawing a short list and setting up interviews, you don’t really have a marketable business model.

We need to understand the present and future needs of our clients and candidates. The better we know our clients and candidates, the better we can match their needs and exceed their expectations. Randstad is known for its firm and consistent values (to know, serve and trust) , which we summarize through our philosophy ‘good to know you’. Randstad has 5 distinctive service concepts: Staffing Temporary staffing, permanent placement and (high-volume) specialties (these are specific market segments on which dedicated units focus) are our core business. A key factor that differentiates Randstad from other companies is our unique unit structure. Each unit consists of two consultants who are responsible for both client service and candidate selection. They work as a team, ensuring one is always available to our clients and candidates. The teams are often dedicated to specific specialties. The consultants are experts in the local labor market, and become experts in their clients’ businesses, understanding their needs and the candidate profile that best meets them. They recruit temporary or permanent employees and make the match. Inhouse services This concept specializes in the provision of high-volume, skilled flexible labor; aimed at improving labor flexibility, retention, productivity and efficiency. The concept provides a complete HR process from recruitment and selection, introduction, planning and management of workers through to the provision of detailed management reports. Unique in this concept is process management. Highly trained process managers focus on creating lean staffing solutions and reducing waste in HR processes aligned with specific performance criteria of individual large scale clients. The concept is always executed on-site by a dedicated account team which works exclusively for one account. Professionals For middle and senior management positions, we recruit supervisors, managers, professionals, interim specialists and consultants with professional qualifications. These specialists can be engineers, IT or finance specialists and professionals from a growing number of other disciplines such as HR, legal, marketing & communication. The roles they fulfill are those of interim managers, project managers or specialist project team members. Search & selection In several countries, we have subsidiaries specializing exclusively in recruitment of middle and senior managers for permanent positions within client organizations. These services include a number of related recruitment and training programs that are often fixed fee-based. HR solutions & Managed Services We offer a comprehensive range of HR project management, HR management and HR consultancy services that are based on our extensive experience in this field. The range, from outplacement, career management and payroll management for small and medium enterprises to major HR process outsourcing services for large corporations, frees up time to allow our client HR managers to concentrate on essential strategic HR issues for their company. These services are usually offered separately from our regular staffing and permanent placement offering, and are almost always fixed fee-based. We are a global partner for Managed Services and will enable you to manage and organize your global and local contingent labor needs. You will gain greater visibility, control and can alleviate your valuable corporate resources to focus on your core business.
