Ok where did I leave that soapbox??? hehehe

    Hey Recruiters!!!   I dare ya' to read this post!

    I am not that concerned with salary...heck I work for a non-profit... but I
do have bills to pay!!!  and the company says alot about itself by the salary
*RANGE* it is offering...I am not asking to know the exact amount..just a range.

    The first company I worked for was known in the Pacific Northwest as a "turn
& burn" shop...and their salaries showed it!!! but... I knew that when I
accepted the interview 'cause they posted the salary range in a want ad in the
Oregonian newspaper...I wanted the experience...not the salary!  (btw it was
enough that I could pay the bills back then...)

     As a recruiter you need to be ready to provide customer service to me the
potential recruit lead... as without me you cannot complete the sale!!!

     Be prepared to answer the standard questions (and the more you do in the
initial posting the better your leads!)  Also, be ready to research the answers
to the unusual questions...If you want to recruit me (for instance hehehe) you
are going to have to find out about military benefits and what National Guard
Units are nearby...and where that state's Military Academy is (I am an
instructor for the National Guard)...if you can't I won't think that the job is
worth it!

Remember, a recruiter has to sell their services to both the buyer and the
person being recruited...

Ok, now I will put away the soapbox....especially since I doubt any of the
recruiters have read any of this posting :( :(

Art "I want facts and data" Bahrs

Salary is not the number one interest in a job, but let's just say it
runnin' neck and neck. No offense was meant by my message, only for the
inclusion of additional information that we could digest and then ascertain
if it was a waste of our time. Not to assume to much from your reply, but
would the posting discourage a talented individual from the South East ?
