AN AMAZING MONTH!

When I lauanched The Talent Magnet, I was very concerned that we would not have enough jobs or candidates. I am extremely happy to report that we have plenty of both in just our first month of operation!

This month The Talent Magnet has introduced 5 outstanding candidates to their next professional home! In addition, their are 15 candidates pending at multiple organizations. This is success is based on partnership. The partnership exists between The Talent Magnet and both our employers and exceptional candidates!

We are proud that in such a short period of time, we were able to establish strong bonds that resulted in mutually beneficial outcomes! The Talent Magnet has placed candidates with the most prestigious names in Advertising, Publishing, Financial Services, Communications, Internet/New Media and Fashion!


We are proud that such prestigious organizations have entrusted us with improving the quality of their workplaces! Our team is excited and honored to have the opportunity to work with such fantastic employers!

The future looks bright for The Talent Magnet! Our ability to "attract" extraordinary candidates is paramount to future success. We will continue to establish relationships with the most sought after employees in the country! However, without a "quality product" to offer, there would be nothing that would distinguish us from any other "generic" agency!

I appreciate all of the positive feedback I have received regarding this blog and the manner in which I conduct business. I look forward to meeting many more of you and your friends that you are referring!

The Modern Job Interview... Expectations vs Reality

Sometimes I feel like I exist in this parallel universe where I am this ultra-modern executive... current with trends in fashion, pop-culture and growing digital footprint --- yet battling these EXPECTATIONS I have that somehow appear "old-school" -- especially when it comes to THE INTERVIEW PROCESS. When I began recruiting -- almost 20 years ago --- the process was simple! I would FAX (yes I said fax) a resume to an Office Manager or Hiring Manager --- schedule an interview, maybe a follow up with HR... and get an offer. Today, the interview process is an elaborate process consisting of multiple steps. It has become an intricate courtship that often involves multiple "decision makers", multiple visits and a stringent screening process. The ultimate goal being to see beyond the resume --- and somehow ensure a "cultural match". In every personal and professional situation we enter; it is important to manage our expectations. Having a clear understandi

LIKE ME - FRIEND ME - CONNECT WITH ME... HAVE WE MET?

We are living in an amazing period - where we literally can reach thousands of people with a message or thought at the click of a button. Social Media, email, and texting have extended our communication reach exponentially - but at what cost? Due to our DESIRE TO ACQUIRE... we are programmed to believe that by accumulating "FRIENDS", "CONNECTIONS", "LIKES", etc -- we are truly growing our network and somehow this will translate into positive results both personally and professionally. This illusion is flawed for one major reason. The quality of the network you build hinges on MEANINGFUL/PERSONAL relationships you develop over time that require LIVE HUMAN CONTACT. This is not to say that social media "pen pals" cannot prove to be a valuable asset -- but they are not as powerful as relationships built in the REAL WORLD that are carried into the social media space. Conversely, there is opportunity to develop a social media connection into a me

We Need More Human Connection, Awareness, and Truthful Sharing

  🔷 We Need More Human Connection, Awareness, and Truthful Sharing 🔷 It is very easy to believe that you are somehow LESS THAN, if spend time ingesting social media. There are so many celebrations, sushi pics, fancy vacay pics, etc., we forget that people only post what they want you to see. We rarely get the real, truthful, vulnerable, authentic content -- especially from those who we most admire. (which is the most useful) I am sharing something very personal about myself today that few people know about with the hope that it encourages others to know it's OK to be HUMAN 😘 It's also easy to get tricked into believing that we are having "human contact" because of all the emails, texts, and zoom calls we have in a day. This remote era has caused a catostrophic loss of CIVILITY between us. There is a void for a sense of awareness, empathy, and kindness. This only gets better when I/we find like-minded people who also believe that KINDNESS + a COMMITTMENT TO EXCE
