Recruitment

I'm getting sick of being regulary phoned, spammed and accosted on LinkedIn about a 'great opportunity' with a 'top digital agency'. At least when it is via LinkedIn it is in direct response to what is essentially a limited version of my CV online. So read with interest Iain Tait's perspective:

At Poke we keep having these odd cyclical conversations about a couple of key senior people we’re trying to hire. We’re looking for entrepreneurial, operationally aware, client facing, creatively minded, inspiring, strategic folk with an interesting set of past experiences - oh and they need to love digital which is our specific bit (simple huh!). The long and short of it is that we’re trying to find creative mini-CEOs. And I don’t think we’re the only ones.

Twitter

Now you can know what your friends are doing every few minutes, or read their weird and random thought-fragments, or as Mashable puts it, it's The Evolution of Blogging, Cat Version: There's a public stream, which is a bit like standing at the end of a driving range being hit by golf ball sized thoughts from people you don't know. But I think there is more to it to that, not that I know exactly what it is yet. You can see what I am doing here, but I think I will be lucky to post more than once. There's a more serious discussion about it by Ross Mayfield.
