Fantastic. It's practical and useful, something that's missing in a lot of blogs. And since I'm new to the whole blogging world, you've hit on what I need. And yes, I need to get off the templates. But that is way over my head for now! Thanks again. Cheers, Robin www.springboardforsuccess.blogspot.com http://web.mac.com/robin.gifford/iWeb/Site/Blog/Blog.html Drew,

I’ve finally stumbled onto your site. Fantastic. It’s practical and useful, something that’s missing in a lot of blogs. And since I’m new to the whole blogging world, you’ve hit on what I need.

And yes, I need to get off the templates. But that is way over my head for now! Thanks again.

The article talks a little bit about how blogs are becoming increasingly relevant to recruiters…and resumes are becoming irrelevant. This is more true in the tech industry than other industries-but more and more people are starting to blog in all industries. Most recruiters will “Google” a prospective employee to see what they find–if you are that candidate, wouldn’t you rather they find your blog, which provides some insight into your method of thinking, than your myspace profile or some other article mentioning you that was written by someone else (personal branding)? The post was inspired by this blog post by Robert Scoble, where Robert mentioned that a Yahoo! recruiter was hounding him for a resume…but he took a job at PodTech that didn’t require one. If you are a recruiter, chances are you are having a hard time finding great candidates. Many good candidates are ones that won’t necessarily be applying for a job, but would be a great fit for your organization. It’s up to recruiters to pro-actively find those candidates.
