Recruiting in Australia: Is the Grass Always Greener?

Pinterest: The best social recruiting tool since LinkedIn

Good Friday to you all - ahaha. Obviously being Easter time not many of you will be reading this, having swapped your Friday doses of Whiteboard news, views and general tittle tattle for groaning traffic jams en route to rain soaked campsites but hey, it's still Friday, so I still…

Recruiters, Get Your Heads Out Of The Sand And Embrace The Future

The squeeze is on. Recruitment agencies are doing it tough right now. The entire recruitment landscape post-recession has changed and for many it is a weird moonscape causing a great deal of displacement and discomfort.

The Whiteboard’s (Alternative) Recruitment Predictions for 2012

Live Blogging and Hot-Sourcing in Sydney

Here's a quick tip for you: When typing something into Google try and make sure your brain is engaged at least in first gear. My attention had drifted to such an extreme distance last night that, thinking you are typing in "Sourcing", but in fact you spell it "Saucing", can provoke…

The Futility of Measuring ROI in Social Recruiting

Several things pointed to the fact that this month's HRINZ "Recruitment Special Interest Group" evening was going to be a little different from the usual offering. Over one hundred of Auckland's recruitment and HR community arrived expectantly and excited at the Vero Centre, a much larger turn out than usual. Perhaps it…
