No False Positives

Something all recruiters (and managers,CEOs, shareholders etc) fear is hiring the wrong person. When you are very big it does not matter who you hire, if you are big enough you can even screw up with the CEO. (When you do this it seems only the shareholders suffer ;-) .)

However when you are small hiring the wrong person can cause death or worse bankruptcy.

Joe Kraus, co-founder of Excite, has a blog on entrepreneurship and wrote his third post about hiring. Good to see! This follows his second post about an organisation who posted everyone's salaries on the Intranet in an effort to promote openness!

Joe is now on my blogroll as a regular item.


I have moved from this site to my new home which can be found a www.specht.com.au
