I know a lot of recruiters who make very few calls and/or don't rely much on the web. I think you have to use "all of the above" to truly thrive in the industry now.<br /><br />Thanks for reading!Jhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00508010898042811103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2038842223938598280.post-14272339672175535652010-10-13T09:51:49.370-07:002010-10-13T09:51:49.370-07:00Hi Jeff,

Once email and PC databases became popular.<br /><br />2. are you saying that if you made 100 calls today that you would get less response now that in the past? I don't see those type of results and I believe that we are already moving back to a more personalized approach and away from the impersonal email or inmail.<br /><br />3. I am seeing anecdotal evidence that says the best contributors, especially in high demand fields, are choosing to opt out of the Linkedin "hunting preserve".<br />Sure we obtain results from search and Social Networks, so does every other recruiter. Maybe that apple low on the tree and easy to pick is not as sweet as that hard to find one up near the top?<br /><br />4. the majority of companies cannot afford in house recruiters. <br /><br />I enjoy your blog, just thought I would add my contrarian 2 cents.Tom Summithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10210366169890704535noreply@blogger.com
