Hi Members:

Please excuse that request. We need to do some maintenance on the Yahoo Group list as it is limited only to current members of TRA. Now that it’s out there you can do the survey if you wish.

Sherrie will be sending a reminder to those who are late with dues. We’ll probably update membership and access around July 31^st for member and yahoo listings. Thanks,Dave.

P.S. to Matt, We’d love to have you back as a member!

Subject: [TennesseeRecruitersAssociation] A QUICK Survey & an OUTSTANDING Candidate Sourcing Networking Event

Hope all is well this morning!!!

As many of you know I do volunteer work for a few career transition
groups here in Nashville and we are doing a couple of things that I
think are of interest to the recruiting community here in Nashville.

1) We are doing some research on where and how candidates are looking
for jobs and where and how recruiters are looking for candidates here
in the Nashville market (we will definitly share the results with all
of those interested).

If you would not mind taking a minute and filling out a SHORT survey
on the recruiting side of things it would be greatly appreciated. You
can log onto
http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.aspx?sm=tyasnE_2bMY_2bMgb6YLrYyxFg_3d_3d
to complete the survey

2) We will be holding our 3rd Annual Career Networking Mixer on
Monday 9/22. It is NO cost to employers/recruiters and job seekers.
Here are the details:

"We participated in this Career Fair for the first time last year
and, by far, it was the most successful job/career fair we've
participated in! As a result, we hired two candidates for
professional level positions, received a bunch a resumes, and got our
name out to hundreds of individuals."

participating again this year!)

I'd like to request that someone, anyone, at each meeting, remind us to
set our phones on vibrate and also to remind us to walk outside if we
intend to answer a call during a meeting.

We might also have a discussion here if anyone wants to debate that it
helps either the people in the meeting or the person calling the person
in the meeting to have a protracted conversation about how you are in a
meeting and can't talk to the caller right now. Isn't that pretty much
the only reason for an outgoing announcement in voice mail?

Hi Members:
You can click this link or paste it into your browser. We are giving
open access to members as an experiment. If attendance drops because
people are waiting for audio or because they stay away when someone
less handsome than Scott (like me) presents then we'll have to restrict
access to those who attend.

You might get this twice because I am asking Dennis Gros to send to the
member list as an additional reminder that the Yahoo Group is here.
Thanks,Dave.

Dear Members and Guests:

Jacqui Calder is bound to be one of our top 2 or 3 speakers since we began this effort. She’ll be explaining what The Psychology of Sales Call Reluctance is all about. Even the best of us have some characteristics or habits that keep us from being our absolute best. Those who achieve in any sales-related pursuit embrace this idea and can appreciate new ways to learn about techniques to counteract less-than-ideal tendencies and how to accentuate strengths.

We are sponsoring Jacqui’s short visit so that she can impart enough of BSRP’s program to make the lunch worth twice what we’re charging. Those of us already familiar with the program can still remember the ‘Oh Wow! That’s me!’ reactions we had when we were first exposed. Recruiters, Account Managers, Owners, Researchers…Everyone will see the value in this.

And don’t worry about this being a set-up or sales pitch. We’ll guarantee that this is a stand-alone value at the same time we guarantee that there will be more information available for those who want it.

The attached flyer will explain a bit more. Please make your reservations as soon as you can.

I've received gifts from two candidates in twelve years.  I don't know
how that compares to anyone else's experience.

I'd be curious, however: what is the most unusual - or obviously
expensive - gift a placed candidate has given you.

I once got two $100 gift cards for Petsmart, which REALLY came in
handy. (The other candidate sent a fruit basket.)

Does anyone have any text that you use to explain the value of a CPC to
an employer?  Maybe on your website, or in other communications?

Now that I have the credential, I want to get as much mileage out of it
as I can.

Please contact me directly using the email address in the header of

Dennis Gros made my personal dream come true....That of bringing our
association back to a level that can stand with any other state.
We've had some other good programs but John Boyens was a great
example of  "how'd they do that?"  Fifth Quarter has turned out to
be a perfect place for these meetings... The meeting price is worth
just the food alone.... One of the top salad bars in the area and
all the meals hot and on-time  and in a place that is not just
another corporate cookie-cutter joint. I hope we have to move to a
bigger room there pretty soon.
I don't intend to slight anyone else in this venture who's been
working to bring this back for over a year but between at least a
rudimentary website and Dennis on Programs I can easily think "We're
Back!"

Now ....we need to begin planning a kick-*ss annual training event
that'll raise money for a real website....

By the way, just know that the board even pays for their own lunches
here.


Please bring a new member so we can buy YOU lunch! D.


Get ready for Pinnacle Society member Tim Knight on January 11th
speaking on the topic of Time/Desk Management that was very popular
at the ASA event in September.

Tennessee Recruiters Association

Yahoo Group Purpose and Etiquette



It is an exciting time as we work to form a new association of the
best recruiters in Tennessee. Together, we will learn from each other,
make money together, and enrich the recruiting industry that has been
so good to each of us.



The Tennessee Recruiters Association Yahoo Group is an instrument of
getting to know each other in our association and sharing new
techniques to improve our individual practices. TRA members should use
this forum to introduce themselves to each other and share success and
challenging stories to further this cause.



Just as important as stating the Yahoo Group's purpose, is stating its
non-purpose. This particular venue is not designed to be a forum for
job postings or split order opportunities. Please make an effort to
get to know the TRA members and their specific recruiting niche then
seek them out individually for recruiting or split opportunities as is
appropriate. A key element to building this association is mutual
trust between its members and the best way to accomplish this
attainable goal is by getting to know each other and sharing our best
practices.

The newly formed TRA leadership board has asked that the bylaws of
this board be revised to prohibit specific job postings or split
postings. I will post the new guidelines on the next message. In the
meantime, please get to know each other and the disciplines in which
you recruit, as those relationships are one of the reasons for the
association's existence.

Per this rule change, I have removed the earlier job posting and the
discussion thread that encouraged this bylaw change. Please continue
to post your best practices and introduce yourself to the group.

I look forward to more lively discussions on best practices, industry
trends, etc. Please don't hold back. Thanks for helping shape this board.

Hello TRA members,

I'll jump in per John's recommendation below.

I'm Cindy Houston Hazen from Sales Executives. I was a career sales professional (road warrior) for over 15 years before opening Sales Executives in 1999. My partner (at the time) had worked in staffing and permanent placement so she had much of the industry templates, etc.

We specialize in placing sales professonals and sales management nationwide. I have two main areas of focus- 1) nationwide, I work many openings in the transportation/logistics field. I am ALWAYS looking for any good UPS or FedEx rep, so if any of those resumes cross your desk, think of me ! Our other focus is medical/pharm positions throughout Tennessee. I work all disciplines and have openings on a regular basis. We have also worked sales openings for business equipment, industrial, advertising, telecommuncations, educational, banking (selling TO banks), automotive and many other BTB areas.

I am very excited about the new TRA association and look forward to meeting other professionals from our field and sharing best practices. It appears our industry has many changes but, at the same time, some of the basics remain the same. I am very excited about all the learning and training we will reap from our new group.

I encourage everyone who is joining to consider some role in contributing to the overall working of the group so we have a strong leadership and committee team. Like everything we do, you will get out of TRA what you put into it so sign up for something with Glenn.

Hope to see everyone at the next to-be-scheduled meeting or at NAPS this week !

Welcome! Thank you for joining this forum of successful recruiters
in Tennessee. We have recently formed the new Tennessee Recruiters
Association and are under way in forming the leadership team. This
is a new group of dedicated recruiters that meet and share ideas in
Nashville, and soon in Memphis and Knoxville. This online forum is
intended to bring its members together to constantly improve our
businesses and the industry as a whole. We care about quality of our
work and the exceptional reputation that each of us enjoys.

As always, we love to hear creative input about the organization.
Feel free to contact me directly at glenn@... and I will get
back with you as soon as possible.

Hopefully I will see you at the NAPS Annual Conference in Baltimore.
If you are going, please seek me out. I'm 41, have red hair, and I'm
on the NAPS board. I would love to meet you.

More to come!!
Glenn Zahn

Hello!

I am the VP of Training & Development for @WORK Franchise, a I just
wrote the manuals for our new franchise @WORK Search Group, our
corporate is based in Knoxville, Tennessee.  www.atwork.com.  This new
brand specialize in search services.  I have years of recruiting and
staffing, but am still trying to fine tune the techniques and trends.

Learning alot about the savvy techniques in electronic
recruiting..wondering how prevalent it really is?  Is it replacing the
telephone passive recruiting of the past?  This x-raying, peeling
websites??  Very intriguing.

I also design recruiting programs and help recruiters develop
specialty/niches.  We have an online network going live soon where our
recruiters can share search assignments/candidates, and work on
cooperative placements.

I also am trying to keep my recruiting skills fresh, as that is my
area of most interest.

I appreciate the invitation to join the group and will try to be a
good member.

Thanks!

Nancy Ward
VP Training & Development
@WORK Franchise
