Hi everyone!

I was just filling out a questionaire from a prospective client and I came across an interesting question. The one question in particular asked how my firm handles non responsive clients.

First I wondered...hmmmm....is this their way of telling me they are a pain in the u know what to deal with? And, why would they want to know that? Will I stalk them? Will I disparage them? What would I say in this response? How would I answer this question?

So, I decided to put it out to the experts, and I think it's a question I don't see addressed enough. How do YOU handle non responsive clients? We all have clients that don't respond with feedback on candidates, who don't respond at all to our marketing efforts, who don't act fast enough with offers, there are so many different ways clients are unresponsive. But again - how do YOU handle them in any situation? And, how would you recommend I answer this question in the particular questionaire I am completing?

THANKS! Debbi Ballard Director of Operations Sanford Barrows Group 305-999-6243

I am wondering if anybody can give me some advice on cold calling tactics. I am working with a staffing firm focused in IT, Accounting, and Engineering talents. It seems as though everybody I call, I get their voicemail, and never get a return call. Can anybody help me get feedback, or is there a better approach I should be taking?

Hello,

Has anyone ever used Network Hunter and, if so, what are your thoughts in terms of sourcing candidates using this tool?

Hi, I am very new to recruiting, and I am currently sourcing for a Sr. Actuarial Analyst with 2+ years work experience. I have utilized Monster and Careerbuilder, but would like to know if there is a better site for actuaries, such as actuary.com. Any suggestions are appreciated. Thank you, Traci Cromwell

Do you recruit in any of these industries?

• Financial Services
• Engineering
• Healthcare

Are you interested in opportunities in these sectors?  Did you know that RecruitAlliance currently has a large number of fee-paid job orders from clients that are ready, willing and prepared to hire the right candidate - NOW!

700+ Financial Services/Broker/Advisor positions

150+ Healthcare/Pharmaceutical positions

40+   Engineering/Aerospace positions

Times are tough; don't make it any harder than it has to be.  Why waste your time cold calling employers looking for opportunities with little results or sending what amounts to an email cold-call, simply to view a job order from an unknown company?  Then, if you're successful, give away up to 25% of your fee as required on some other sites?

Spend your time wisely and do what you do best - find qualified candidates for REAL job orders with clients who need your assistance... and remember, with RecruitAlliance you always keep 100% of your fee.
