Morning all,

Today’s kudos gets sent to Bill Vick of XtremeRecruiting.tv.  Now, if you’re not aware of Bill, the man is an absolute Jedi Master when it comes to virtually every aspect of recruiting online.  A savvy businessman and one of the first recruiters to really embrace what the Internet could offer his colleagues, his accomplishments both offline and on are simply undeniable.  To quote a bit of his bio:

…The passion that drives me is helping others pursue and achieve excellence.   By definition I’m a HeadHunter, serial entrepreneur, author, vlogger, publisher, big biller, speaker, and recruitment industry coach. I believe everybody has the ability to achieve success in life and my goal is to help others succeed. …

 

I went from sales and marketing management with fortune 500 companies such as Revlon, Max Factor and Helene Curtis, to the computer and software industries where I launched a chain of computer stores and participated in taking a software company public. I joined Management Recruiters International (MRI) in 1986 and was their National Rookie of the year in 1987. For the last 20 years I have run my own retained executive search business and along the way created a software company focused on software for recruiting and staffing firms, and founded Recruiters OnLine Network (RON), a top 100 site. I sold my software and web businesses in 2002.

I have been a founder and board member of the Pinnacle Society recognizing achievement in the staffing industry, a national speaker for NAPS, served on the Board of Directors of The Texas Association Staffing Services (TAPS), was an officer with the Metroplex Association of Personnel Services (MAAPS) as well as a founder of the local Dallas Independent Recruiters Group (IRG) and a lifetime member of the USMC Force Recon Association (FRA) …MORE….

Anywhos, today’s kudos focuses upon the re-inventing of his video recruiting site.  It now uses a highly video-friendly look and feel, and offers visitors brilliant, insightful ideas from plethora of the finest minds of the recruiting industry.  Some of the interviews include:

• Bill Radin – Trainer, Author, Keynote Speaker
• Barbara Bruno – Good As Gold Training CEO
• Stacy Ethun – Big Biller, Industry leader
• Martin Birnbach – Big Biller, Executive Recruiter
• Shally Steckerl – Talent Acquisition Consultant and Search Guru
• Mark Demaree – President, Top Echelon Network

and more.

If you’re serious about your recruiting career, you definitely want to mosey over there now and learn.

Enjoy,

Barbara Ling
