Good one bill. other day , I had similar argument with one of my friend whose company took him for task for posting the resume on web. I told him to put something similar to their employers. if a perticular employer feels bad or insecure when his employees start putting their resumes on the web --- Some times this could be an issue to employer.

Thanks for this short but neat post

Bill:

Totally agree with you ... in fact, I get so many requests that I have started a Yahoo groups (http://finance.groups.yahoo.com/group/AdwaitsDotNetJobs) so I can distribute it to my colleagues (and subscribers).

Hi Bill - Great idea! Networking is key even when you are happy in your job. Your point-of-view is a refreshing change from the usual "I can't believe a recruiter had the nerve to contact me" comments. Personally, I'm very happy when a recruiter cold calls me, and I always call them back.

Recruiters can be your best friend when you are looking for a job (duh!) In addition, since they deal with so many people, they are a networking gold mine.

Notice to Microsoft readers: I am not looking for a new job! Jeez, I've only been here a month!

Great post. I originally saw it on the Microsoft recruiting blog.

I know that those who are nice to recruiters who happen to be right for the position they are being recruited for will ultimately benefit. I have seen it hundreds of times.

I will will visit your site often now that I know about it.

Thanks

Jason

Listen everybody:

This year my boss and I are looking to expand our business base abroad. The company I work for is based in Japan. We specialize in sending Japanese nationals abroad for working holiday visa programs and etc., What we are looking to do this year 05' is recruit Westerners from abroad to work for our company indirectly; sort of like an outsourceing type set up. We provide housing and work visa assistants for those interesting in coming over here to teach business English. No special qualifications are required just look Western. For more information e-mail me

Both positions are permanent, direct hire, are for fabulous companies with excellent benefits.

Any referral you could provide would be greatly appreciated. If you know someone looking for work other than as an Accountant or Cost Account, please feel free to pass along my information to them as well--I have several different positions available.
