Play More Beach Volleyball to Bill More FeesTwo weeks ago, one of my favourite recruitment bloggers, Jonathan Rice, posted on his blog The Whiteboard, a smartly written post, provocatively entitled Smoke More Cigarettes to Bill More Fees.

Although no comments were posted to my blog about this article, I received a few emails that suggested I was being naïve or irresponsible in highlighting or endorsing Read more here:

I loved almost every minute of my time when I was recruiting. For most of my 14 years running a desk (full time as a consultant, part-time as a manager), I was young, without significant life commitments and hungry to achieve. So what do I miss from More here:

Reports of the industry’s irrelevance were proven to be well off the mark as growth and profitability rebounded strongly in 2010. That doesn’t mean it was a year without challenges. In fact, for the pessimists (realists?), there was plenty of See the original post here:

I was a very ‘green’ 22 year old, living away from home for the first time, trying to make a go of working life in London. I was employed as a permanent accounting consultant in the Victoria office of Accountancy Personnel (now Hays). As I retired More:

Given the sale of Packer’s interest in SEEK recently it’s a fair bet that it was the last such ‘knees up’ for the heavy hitters of the recruitment sector, to be hosted by the Packer family.

The first significant step was separating temp and perm recruitment. Smart business owners realised these two aspects of recruitment required slightly different competencies and as a result the more process, detail and transaction-oriented people were better suited to perm and the faster paced, more emotional and relationship-focused Here is the original post: Tags: business-owners, denis waxman, hays, more-emotional, more-process, people-were, recruitment trends, result-the-more, separating-temp, sourcing, the-faster, two-aspects The 2010 Intergenerational report – some thoughtsIn case you weren’t paying much attention, in the first week of February the Federal Government released the much-leaked 2010 version of the Intergenerational Report.
