In the week where Louise from UK Recruiter launches the UK Recruitment Blog of 2009, I thought it would be good to share with you two 'virgin' blogs that I believe will certainly be worth following over the next few months. Be gentle, they are virgins after all!!
They are both written by people with a real passion for recruitment, but from different angles.
The first is by Alex Crovetti from Playfair & Noble - a company that came to prominence earlier this year with a really innovative approach to the recruitment marketplace - they pay the successful candidates 50% of their fee!! Well they have just launched their blog, and if it is as innovative as their business ideas, then it really will be worth reading! As a starter, they have had some fun with their new company car in the first of a series of videos.
The blog can be found here, with their inaugural video below:
I am hoping that they post regular and interesting content - after all, they certainly have a different business model to share with us all!
The second blog I think will be an excellent addition to the recruitment blog stable is by a brash Aussie, Justin Hillier. Justin is the Sales Manager for Talent on View, who are soon launching an exciting new social media platform - Tribepad (website coming soon), which he describes as a community platform that encourages and enhances collaboration, engagement and interaction.
Justin has been in recruitment for a good few years and has been very active on Twitter over the last few months. So, being the opinionated soul that he is, he thought it was about time to get blogging!
I for one, am looking forward to what Alex and Justin have got to say over the months ahead.
Do you know of any other new blogs in the recruiting/HR space that are worth checking out? Please share them in the comments below if you do.
