mostly crossposted to the campfire blog
I've been writing job search and recruiting blogs for a few years now, and at some point, I've probably blogged about every topic out there. Sometimes I focus on advice; sometimes it's interesting chatter out in the blogosphere; sometimes it's just my own observations. But I want to hear about what you want me to write about. I can pontificate in a vacuum all day but if I'm not giving you the content you want or need, there's not much point.
So what do you want to know? Do you want sourcing advice, marketing advice, interview advice? Do you have specific questions? Do you want me to pass along hot job search or recruiting tips or stories that I read across the web - or have you seen all this before? Should we talk about other interesting recruiting tactic are out there? Do you want to share your own experiences through this blog? I'm here for you - so let's talk about what you want to.
I do have one goal for this blog, and it's that I want to provide information that is just as relevant to a non-HR minded developer who may be hiring a few folks as much as it is for a professional recruiter. There's recruiting advice blogs galore, but I've always felt it's important to arm non-recruiters who care about and have to recruit (that's all of us, really!) with the tips, tricks, and tools necessary to get the job done. That's my 2cents. :)
