Fix This Code, and You Might Get Your Dream Job
by Katie Carty Tierney on Jun 26, 2008 - 12:51 PM read 826 times
Source: http://txaggie94.wordpress.com/?p=46I try. I really do. I want to help the nGenera software engineering team so much that I’ve been trying to write Ruby on Rails code. The only problem is, I don’t have what it takes. I’m just not a good programmer. Oh, sure, I USED to be an awesome programmer, but that was before I moved into the frou-frou world of Talent Acquisition. Today, my programming skills are creaky, ... read more -
The Emerging IT Skills Shortage: The Contraction of Critically Important Talent Resources
by Mary on Jun 23, 2008 - 11:44 PM read 119 times
Sneak preview of our pre-publication article discusses an approach CIO's can take to resolve their Talent Crisis. The layoffs from global IT sourcing produced a false sense of reality for CIOs that IT labor is abundant. The reality for at least the next twenty (20) years is that talent for critical IT positions will be scarce. For instance: Trends show that foreign-born, U.S.-educated workers begin returning home shortly after gaining ... read more -

Retiring Retirement - A Path to Business-IT Maturity
by Vaughan Merlyn on Mar 18, 2008 - 07:24 AM read 459 times
Source: http://itorganization2017.wordpress.com/?p=210I’m increasingly invited to retirement celebrations for former and current consulting clients and friends. They are quite distressing events. First, the retiree is typically putting on a brave face, boasting about all the golf and fishing they will enjoy. But often beneath the surface bluster is a deep-seated fear. Sometimes they ask me if my firm might have a role for them, or if I know any ... read more -
HRE Online: Putting Web 2.0 to Work
by Barbara McGill on Mar 04, 2008 - 10:30 AM read 122 timesVery interesting article on putting Web 2.0 to work. It includes some case studies. Putting Web 2.0 To Work Although many HR leaders may prefer to bar Web 2.0 from the workplace, doing so could leave their organizations at the back of the technology pack. Embracing it could enhance attracting and retaining talent as well as employee collaboration and engagement. It is available from Human Resource Executive(r) magazine on the ... read more -

In my quest to become more creative, I find myself constantly hunting for tools to help me achieve “creativity nirvana.” One tool I’ve uncovered is a funky wesite called GetFreshMinds.com.

Do We NEED an Enterprise 2.0 Market?
by Katie Carty Tierney on Jan 07, 2008 - 10:13 AM read 1700 times
Source: http://txaggie94.wordpress.com/2008/01/07/do-we-need-an-e...Thanks to Twitter, I ran across a post by Jevon MacDonald about an Enterprise 2.0 market. More specifically, the post was Jevon arguing that there is no Enterprise 2.0 market. His valid points include: There are very few companies with Enterprise 2.0 budget line items. Enterprise 2.0 is too loosely defined at this point to make it valuable as a solution (or set of solutions) for organization problems. There ... read more -
Candidate Tracking System - Why We Chose Jobvite
by Katie Carty Tierney on Dec 13, 2007 - 10:47 AM read 904 times
Source: http://txaggie94.wordpress.com/2007/12/13/candidate-track...Over the past several months, I have been in the throes of a candidate tracking system selection and implementation process. It was a daunting task. There are hundreds of systems out there, and I had to narrow it down to the right one for BSG Alliance. We look at all of our software (our platform for doing business, as it were) as a strategic advantage. We needed a candidate tracking ... read more -

The kids whove grown up in the digital age. The kids who cant remember a time before cable television, self-service gas stations, video games, and computers. The kids who have no idea what a turntable is, since the music they listen to fits into a 1.5 inch square piece of machinery called ... read more -

I actually got an account on Facebook a couple of years ago, using my Texas A&M University alumnus email address, in order to check up on potential new members for my sorority (yes, yes, I was a sorority girl... we’ve been through this…). Since then, I have found Facebook to be a useful business tool, allowing me to keep in ... read more -
Picking Locations for BPO
by Esteban on Nov 08, 2007 - 09:59 PM read 1775 times
Source: http://yourflatworld.wordpress.com/2007/11/08/picking-loc...A reader, Phil,recently asked about which geographies are particularly strong in certain skill sets for BPO (see my post If not China, then where?) Before I go on though, there’s an important consideration that is making previous BPO decisions look bad, and my case for diversifying your portfolio of locations look good! The slide of the dollar relative most currencies is making offshore expensive! In fact, ... read more -
Death to Offshoring. Long live Offshoring!

Source: http://yourflatworld.wordpress.com/2007/11/04/death-to-of...Apologies to Rob Thomas for my blatant swiping of the title of his blog entry. For those of you who don’t know, he is a musician-the lead singer for Matchbox 20-and his successful solo career had led the media to pronounce his band dead. I am amused by how quickly we jump to conclusions about the failure of offshore sourcing of labor. Now, I know I am ... read more -

Bottom line, it is my opinion that China Incs risk/reward profile is not yet where it needs to be for many of the corporations I serve. Too many executives associate globalization with lets go to China. In ... read more -

She posted her resume to Monster, and was very specific about several things: She wants to stay in her hometown of Denver, but she would consider opportunities in Austin, TX. She is not, under any circumstances, looking for contract work. She likes long walks on the beach and candlelit dinners. Oh, wait, that’s her eHarmony profile, not her Monster ... read more -
