Cool Recruiting Trick
Jim Stroud has step-by-step instructions for how to electronically deal with the following recruiting situation:
Imagine finding the resume of the perfect candidate only to find out that they were not swayed by your pitch and are quite happy where they are.
But never fear! They will give you a call once they are ready to make a move. (Ummm… yeah, don’t hold your breath.)
If this is a situation you are familiar with (and what recruiter is not?), then I suggest that you configure your Internet Explorer browser to send you an email whenever your perfect candidate updates their resume.
Jim’s technique (which he learned from Rob McIntosh, Microsoft Central Sourcing Manager) could prove very useful to recruiters chasing “passive candidates.”

(Yes, Jim has featured my transsexual story today, and yes, that led me to do this linkback to his blog. But only because I thought this trick was way cool and would be appreciated by many of our readers).
