HELLO FROM YOUR EDITMASTER


My road warrior duties have been re-engaged starting next month.
Having taken a 9-month sabbatical from crowded airports, delayed
flights, and peanut meals, I am committed to starting again.
Fortunately, I will be in the company of a new dream team of
HR/Recruitment trainers like Gale Heritage, Wendell Williams, Barbara
Ling, Shally Steckerl, and other expert luminaries. Now, every week,
I will have the chance to pick up mugs, keychains, t-shirts, and
assorted souvenirs from major cities throughout the United States.
And of course, lots of Southwest Airlines peanuts!!!

The Recruiter Course is a very informative how-to manual for both
aspiring recruiters and those needing a fresh perspective. David Fogg
lends his 12 years in the recruiting business into a very personal
journey mixed with lots of innovative strategies, useful forms, and
excellent research.

AIRS SearchStation 6 is a fee-based sourcing tool that embodies much
of which is taught in their internet recruiting classes. It presumes
that most recruiters who take either AIRS 1 or 2, or any of the other
sourcing venues, probably don't have the time or remember
everything taught in class and hence need a series of tools to do
their bidding.

ODDS & ENDS


Creative genius packed into thousands of scripts suitable for any web
site. And it's all free. From web site searching to form
processing
to file managers.

Not a days goes by that I don't see yet another CD offering by
AOL
for a free trial. However, the only thing that seems to change is
amount of hours one has in one month of free use. This site caught my
eye because they offer two free months ISP use if you register
online.

TRAINING


Internet Sourcing and Recruiting Tools Workshop for Recruiters and HR
Professionals
If you're serious about recruiting and want to gain the most
comprehensive knowledge for tapping the Internet to source and
identify any type of active or passive job seeker, you'll need to
be more than a classroom attendee. You need to participate in a real-
time workshop! You don't need a trainer pointing to a large
screen using a canned Power-Point presentation. You do need an expert
instructor, who is both a current and accomplished recruiter, to
guide you through the vast and endless maze of Internet tools and
techniques! And we don't just give you a manual. How about a
comprehensive recruiter's toolkit that can provide you realistic
strategies to effectively source candidates in a timely and efficient
manner.
New York April 9-10, Phoenix April 16-17, Chicago April 30-May 1,
Washington DC May 14-15, San Francisco May 21-22
Registration: Toll Free 888-872-4640
