Sanjay Sathe
Welcome to an Online Savvy Channel podcast on Total Picture Radio with Peter Clayton reporting. Last week, I asked my LinkedIn network for "suggestions of leaders you feel would share valuable information and insights with job seekers and recruiters." For those of us with jobs, I think everyone is concerned about keeping them; and at the very least, taking an active role in monitoring what's happening in their industry, profession, major competitors and company. (If you're not, why?)
Hat-tip to our friend, Jonathan Goodman from HRMarketer, for recommending we interview the president and CEO of RiseSmart, Sanjay Sathe. RiseSmart offers services for job seekers, recruiters and corporations. Their "Job Concierge" service provides job seekers with a weekly distribution of customized job leads from "across the internet by leveraging sophisticated technology and human touch to deliver the highest volume of relevant job listings."
