Martone Does It Again

January 31, 2008 in Community, Friends, New York, Roadshow People

(January 30, 2008) The nice thing about an idea like the Recruiting Roadshow™ is that it seems to inspire lots of help. Our sponsors enjoy giving back to the community, knowing that their investment in education will deliver significant returns. They are generally willing to bet that they are investing in the right thing.

Las Vegas Recruiting Roadshow

January 28, 2008 in Las Vegas

(January 28, 2008) I had breakfast with Susan Burns on Friday. (Notice that the link is to Dave Mendoza’s blog. He’s doing some amazing work.) One of the things that I noticed over eggs (besides Hollandaise) was the importance of hearing other people talk about your business.
There’s just no way that an individual (or [...]

JobJacking Revisited

January 17, 2008 in Issues

(January 17, 2008) From the beginning, there were ‘issues’. Vertical search engines (and gasp, big giant universal search engines, too) make their money by taking other people’s intellectual property and doing something with it. When Google ‘indexes’ your web pages, it is copying them into its database for its use. When a Job Board ’scrapes’ [...]

Personified

January 16, 2008 in Community, Press & Media, Roadshow Content

(January 16, 2008) So, the newspapers have finally invented the advertising agency.

January 15, 2008 in Community, Issues, John Sumser, Press & Media

(January 15, 2008) Isn’t it weird that the labor shortage is happening in an explosion of data. It’s easier and easier to find information about people while it’s harder and harder to find them. The number of needles is declining while the size of the haystack is growing.
Isn’t that how it seems?
There are some pretty [...]
