Headhunters

Now there comes a time when we all need a good headhunter. And I hope there's a good headhunter around when I next might need one. But I hope I haven't annoyed too many of them. Between the job ad on Russell's blog and here, I've had a fair few CV's and I gather there might be some unimpressed headhunters out there. Sorry about that.

But they've all been interesting CV's - and some approaches have been really innovative. I've been really blown away, in fact. And that these folks have come through these channels says oodles about them - by default, web savvy, involved in the community of planning, and Russell's site is as good as a recommendation as you need.

Perhaps, and here's the kicker, we need to build a community around our headhunters - perhaps a blog or knowledge exchange or virtual book club - where we can keep in touch with our headhunters and they, us. And jobs and candidates somehow magically get connected up. It's time to get with the programme.
