Pains of Recruiting, part 1

At the ERE conference I sat in on a sessions led by Kevin Wheeler about the challenges of recruiting and workforce planning. He had each table come up with their own "pains". Here is the first of 4 videos from that session. I thought other recruiters would find it interesting.

Video: Dr. John Sullivan

John Sullivan is one of my HR Heroes. He speaks the truth about human resources. Sometimes his views get him in trouble with the establishment but his ideas and beliefs are what HR needs to hear if they want to become a player. At the recent ERE expo I interviewed him after his presentation.

Odd things I learned at ERE

Last week's ERE fall expo was an interesting experience. I had some great conversations, heard lots of stories and met interesting people. But these 4 things were perhaps the oddest stuff I heard all week.

1. I actually met a 22 year old who DOESN'T have either a MySpace page or Facebook profile.

2. I learned a new word called "drunk-texting" (no, it wasn't me)

3. One twenty-something female I met admitted to texting 6500 times in one month. (that's mind boggling)

4. A vendor told me the story of how he found his latest sales person --- at a bar. Talk about innovative sourcing! A sales manager was at a bar after work with some colleagues. They struck up a conversation with another group of people who were having a good time. One of them was a 27 year old woman who sold radio advertising. He gave her his card and she looked him up a few days later. He offered her a job.

Video: Joel Cheesman on the Hotseat

I thought it was time to turn the tables on Joel Cheesman at ERE last week. So i put him on the Hotseat and he sounds off on the future of Monster, Jobster, Job Boards, SEO and his beloved Indians. Fortunately for him he did not predict an Indians victory. Turns out that was a good idea.

The most interesting phrase overheard at ERE

On friday morning, the last day of the ERE expo, I went down to grab a quick breakfast before my morning train back home. I picked up a croissant and heard Neal Bruce of Monster speaking in the main room. So I stepped in.

He was having the sparse crowd recite some phrases about recruiting/monster when he told the crowd to chant;

"Joel Cheesman Secretly loves Monster."

And the crowd went along.

Alas, I dont think Joel was there to hear it.

Random video from ERE

By all accounts the ERE show in DC was a terrific event. The city was great. The hotel was first class and there was plenty of interesting conversation. It's size is very manageable. Not too big (like shrm) or too small like some other conferences. The ERE staff told me about 1,000 people were there (including those from about 100 vendors). I hope to attend the next one in San Diego.

Here's a brief video with a few of the sites and sounds including the expo setup and a few of the speakers.
