How to Create Meaningful Relationships with Executive Recruiters

Marc Lewis

Executive level job search today is frustrating, confusing, and can, at times, be completely demoralizing. People don't return your calls. Even headhunters don't call you back. Why? You have a twenty-year track record. Excellent references. Real accomplishments. You just spent $900 to have your resume rewritten. And still, you can't get arrested. You spend hours submitting your resume to Internet job listings and never get as much as a call-back.

In this Inside Recruiting Channel podcast on TotalPicture Radio, Peter Clayton will address these issues with an industry veteran, and get some clear answers.

Pinstripe CEO Sue Marks Podcast

Monday, 04 January 2010
We Need To Be Ready for a New Normal "It has never been more challenging to be a HR leader or recruiter than it is today. There are so many competing pressures and priorities." - Sue Marks Sue Marks Welcome to a Inside Recruiting podcast on TotalPicture Radio with Peter Clayton reporting. Joining me is the CEO of Pinstripe, Sue Marks. I first learned about Pinstripe at the Social Recruiting Summit last November in New York City. Based in Brookfield, WI, Pinstripe designs and delivers high-performance talent acquisition and Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) solutions for clients in financial services, healthcare, manufacturing, technology, telecommunications, and other industries. Pinstripe can be found on the web at pinstripetalent.com. Writing about Sue Marks in his "100 Top Influencers" series on RecruitingBlogs.com, here's what John Sumser had to say: "Marks is influential in ways that elude other players. As one of the highest ranking (if not the highest) women in the business, she has a unique level of access to a range of players. Never a shrinking violet (remember, she’s a recruiter at heart), Marks is often the point person for sales and marketing in the company. She’s fearless." 26 Min: 18 MB Download Now!

Susan Burns - Talent Synch Podcast

Tuesday, 15 December 2009
Community – Building a Sustainable Approach to Recruiting Expanding on Susan Burns' Social Recruiting Presentation in New York Susan Burns Welcome to an Inside Recruiting channel podcast on Total Picture Radio with Peter Clayton reporting. Joining us once again is the founder and Chief Talent Strategist of Talent Synchronicity, Susan Burns. Susan was a featured presenter at the recent ERE produced Social Recruiting Summit in New York. According to Susan, "Talent Synchronicity is the momentum established when business and talent strategies intersect. When clarity of vision and collective action work together to advance efforts toward sustainable results." Is social recruiting just another sourcing tool—a way to promote job postings and find potential candidates? Or is it a pathway to building a sustainable talent community and another tipping point in the evolution in recruiting? The tools we have access to today deliver benefits that you won’t find through other sourcing vehicles. Harnessing the true power of social networking is about active talent communities. Talent communities provide a forum that enhances the relationship between candidates and your brand by inviting talent to engage in conversation rather than transactional activities and messaging. 20 Min: 13.7 MB Download Now!
