| | Dear Hemanth & Bhavana,
Talent is scarce and it definitely makes sense to think out of the box,more so for sourcing strategies.That is where blogs come into the picture.What are blogs?They are nothing but personal or semi-personal online diaries where comments are made abt. various issues,opinions aired,experiences narrated.....etc .
More & more HR Mgrs.are going thru blogs for recruitment because blogs give an insight into the person and his personality thru his or her blogging.Opinions & experiences give recruiters interesting facts about the blogger and his mental make-up besides some information abt. certain personal characterstics,level of intelligence,communication skills,sharpness in terms of reactions, level of information inputs and sometimes even the degree of humaness in the blogger .Blogs abt.success & challenges also give out tips about blogger.
Interviews & selection tests are also techniques or tools to gather requisite information abt. potential candidates,their personality.....etc
Most interviewees clam up & are too nervous during interviews so the rt.
picture is not available with recruiters to make good selections.But with blogging all these self defeating purposes are overcome to get the right picture of the prospective candidate at their best.
However remember,blogs by themselves cannot be used for recruitments, neither can tests nor interviews.All should be made use of to supplement one another to arrive at an more or less accurate assessment-TO RECRUIT OR NOT TO RECRUIT?
Warm Regards,
RGS.

Have'nt u heard of poaching ? That is exactly what happens with successful senior level executives.

| | Dear Shymali, Body shopping is arguably a uniquely Indian practice whereby an Indian-run consultancy (body shop) anywhere in the world recruits IT workers, in most cases from India, to be placed out as project-based labor with different clients. Unlike conventional recruitment agents who introduce employees to employers, body shops manage workers on behalf of employers—from sponsoring their temporary work visas to paying their salaries, arranging for accommodation and the like. Thus, workers do not enter into any direct relationships with their contract employers and can be retrenched at any time, whereupon the body-shop sponsor either is able to place them out to a different client or puts them on the bench to await a placement.
(correct me if i m wrong RGS  )

Members come from all sectors of the economy, including private businesses, non-profit organizations, educational institutions and government. Recruters can select candidates from these clubs.
