I started this blog as an open forum for IT Staffing industry professionals to exchange their ideas and  feelings to better our profession.  Please feel free to respond to any of my ranting or open up new topics for discussion.  At all times these thoughts must be presented in a professional manner that encourages participation and are a credit to our industry.

I also encourage candidates for employment to ask questions or state problems they have had with recruiters in the past.  Your input is vital to our success.  After all, you need to be just as happy about your new (or future) employment for your continued usage of our services. 

I ask you to identify yourself but I will withhold identification posted if requested.

I reserve the right to not post or edit content to adhere to the above standards of conduct.

Great cover letter article

DateThursday, May 14, 2009 at 08:34AM

I'm usually not a big fan of cover letters because too often I think candidates get lost in too much detail and the HR folks will ignore them anyway and just run the resume into their ATS for key word searches.

BUT, Harry Joiner at Marketingheadhunter.com has a great example of a well written cover letter. 10 Reasons Why this Cover Letter Rocks  There are many things about this letter that I like.  It's short and too the point, highlighting the items that the author believes will get him noticed.  And that's the key point, GET NOTICED.
