We're polishing up the report cards - but in the mean time, if you have a few minutes to waste and want a good laugh, you can go get a kick out of Hank Stringer's interview on HR.com here.

Hire.com's incredible lack of success is clearly based on their lack of vision. Its fitting that Hank uses a story about recruiting Unix Kernel Hackers just before the big e-commerce economic bubble, because that is where hire.com is stuck - in the 90s. I read this article and immediately started wondering if I had clicked on some interview from 1997 - the future that Hank is talking about, and that hire.com will sell you, passed us by a long time ago. Hire.com seemingly has nothing new to say - still selling the same old sourcing message - but without a searchable database - the old build up my strength to overcompensate for my HUGE weakness approach. The most depressing part about this is that hire.com has been trying to solve the same problem for the last 7 years and still can't get it right.

Thats all for now......

Talent.
