Ning – the first post at Aussierecruiters

I came across Ning a few days back. Unlike the usual thoughtless tests I usually run on the many services and tools I stomp into online these days, for this one I stopped and wondered: what if we’re able to get a few people connected and finding common ground on how to take the recruitment practice forward, in line with the thoughts at LatinOcean? What if?

And then I let it go, because you know, I think: shivers! what other things do I need to do before I indulge in a community building exercise? come one man! back to the real world! ….

And then Maria from T2 comes knocking, and she wants to join in; and she doesn’t know that she’s the first recruiter to want in….

And then I let go again, because you – like me – may be able to kick off a community online, but that does not mean that its destiny is in your hands.

Welcome to Aussie Recruiters; this is your patch.

    I had a look at the ‘Happy at Work’ social network on Ning, and it appeared to have only two members – ‘Erno’ another blissfully happy chap – the Chief Happiness Officer not less – called Alex Kjerulf. If that doesn’t say it all….

    Hi Carey how you been?

    well yes, it is a bit of a worry that there’s only a couple of people in the ‘happy @ work’ group huh; though optimistic recruiters may see this as a great opportunity to place talent on more satisfying roles.

    There is a dozen recruiters in aussie… whom I have invited on a one by one basis; I do believe that the company we all keep will make this a good place to participate in
