Rumors of Death of Recruiting Greatly Exaggerated follow this blog post

We have all heard it,  "Internet tools and strong Applicant Tracking Systems will drastically reduce the need for recruiters".  We might want to rethink this.
 
If anything, I believe that it has actually re-emphasized the importance of traditional recruiting..you know the type of recruiting where hard to find, desirable candidates are discovered through age-old techniques of research, networking and referrals.
 
It seemed as if up until recently, clients were starting to view recruiters as commodities with cost being a primary driver as opposed to service and value.  There are signs that this is beginning to change with more clients valuing the relationships with their top-performing recruiters.
 
Strong client-recruiter relationships based on trust and dependable performance work to the long term benefit of both client and recruiter.
