Interesting exercise. Most recruiters will talk your wage / salary down. The difference in commission for the recruiter negotiating UP from an initial offer from a company (like $75,000 vs $80,000 (what you want)) or $95,000 - $105,000 is a

Besides the FB / Groupon examples of larger firms and very large valuations, in regards to startups, what would a "burst" look like? The loss of $100M "talent acquisition" buyouts, VC's go turtle, incubators...bust? I don't see the later ha

Others thoughts on this as an acceptable practice? I don't think "personal branding" comes into this play / project, but it could in the future.

I'm unsure why Google doesn't hop into the space with their incredible infrastructure and talent pool. A tab in my Gmail (Like Documents, Calender, etc) with Backup, would be ridiculously nice. You also can't have much faith if you believe

They ARE hiring (even in the SLC (Salt Lake City, UT) market), which probably equates somewhat to Groupon's high operating costs: the Sales team. B2B, cold calling, etc. That was at least the advertisement that played for months around here

The specialization of CS related PHd's were truly more hurtful then helpful (on the whole, not as a 100% "rule") when I recruited $120-$150k programmers (mostly finance / eCommerce giants). From the VP's (paraphrased) "They tend to be too n

The 1% of 1% is so damaging..it can effect lives, and those around those lives. The problem, to me, is the "blue line" of protectionist policies of departments, which, camera's would never be an issue if this was not the case.
