"Easter is not a time for groping through dusty, musty tomes or tombs to disprove spontaneous generation or even to prove life eternal. It is a day to fan the ashes of dead hope, a day to banish doubts and seek the slopes where the sun is rising, to revel in the faith which transports us out of ourselves and the dead past into the vast and inviting unknown." ~Author unknown, as quoted in the Lewiston Tribune

MagicMethod News

Thursday’s MagicMethod Phone Sourcing Class Chat was a great success! We had about twenty people show up on pretty short notice including Shally Steckerl and Glenn Gutmacher to give us some great advice regarding LinkedIn’s most recent (and some hints at coming!) changes. You can read through the Class Log here.

There's some great new content posted on the MagicMethod site that you might find interesting. Among it:
Unemployment over 50%?
“I saw it stated yesterday in a training circular that unemployment in recruiting was around 50%! Is this your experience? Tell us what's happening in your world.” They did!

Why are recruiters resented so?

How do you measure the productivity/effectiveness of sourcers?
Microsoft Manager asking.

Have phones gone the way of the dinosaur?
"It seems that at some point, and that point is coming soon, there no longer will be a phone that's just a phone." ~ Sylvia Paull

Is there more to search and discovery than brilliant algorithms?

"HR weenies don't name gather..."

Visit today and add your thoughts to the discussions. I look forward to seeing you in there!
