Rant of the Day

I just am involved in the recruitment process as we're quite a small firm and not really big enough to have an HR person to do it for us.

I wonder why companies bother having a HR dept when they go out and pay a recruitment agency stupid money to get someone

wtf (as danx might say)

is that some kind of yankee 'slang'

bernie who?
No, not a yankee saying at all.

Random pop culture reference... to the film Weekend at Bernie's.
 
does anyone throw half of the pile of CVs in the bin without reading them to avoid employing unlucky people?
 
Are you guys actual employers or Recruitment consultants? If you are the latter then you suck!!!

Oi, I'm a Financial Recruitment Consutant!:lol: ;)

Know what you mean though about money, we sometimes charge firms £40k for one placement...that is on very high earners though;) All the more commision for me to:lol: 8)

I get some laughable CV's! I received one a few days ago that was very funny; every four lines or so the guy went on about how good he was at making Sushi!!:lol:
 
but, of course perhaps we were refering to a curriculum vitae which belonged to, perhaps, Catherine Vaughn.

of some records which are possesed by Don Johnson?

i was a big hitting rec con once (or so i thought!), when i left i realised i had wasted a year and a half of life being stressed, unhappy, a bit richer but ultimately not a nice person to be around.

Completely disagree!

Yes it's stressful, but I don't honestly find it that bad. As for 'not a nice person'...couldn't be further from the truth.

Maybe it's different down there, but it doesnt seem like that at all up here. There can be a great deal of satisfation from it:roll:
