The Recruiting Animal

@AndrewGadomski - LINKEDIN - Aspen Advisors  

I started Aspen Advisors in 2006 because I thought too many recruiting departments were wasting time and money on tools they didn't understand, buying training that was taught only once, and using vendors who could not find water if they fell out of a boat, let alone candidates.

I don't know who you are; I don't know what you want (but I will find out).

I have a set of skills acquired over a decade that make me very valuable for people like you.

I am the phone call that you want to answer. Even if you're not actively looking to make a change right now

because you never know what the future holds. As a bonus, I'll make it fun.

For fun, I blog, game, podcast (reclevel3.com), geek out with my wife and our 3 nerdy kids, and generally just enjoy life. Connect with me on Twitter @JRoberts257 Happily based remote in Northwest Georgia.

Major media outlets around the world took note when a little-known recruiter named Cousin Brucie Hurwitz posted a short article about interviews on Linkedin. Why? Because he told women to lie. How? He said they shouldn't wear their enagement rings if they wanted to get the job. Bruce finally received the kind of notoriety he'd been craving for years but fame comes with a price, doesn't it, and Bruce would soon realize that he'd aroused the wrath of one shit-kicking recruiter who works deep in the heart of the most famous company in the world. "I'm going to get that guy ," she said as she looked in her mirror that morning. Then she went on the rampage. She posted a number of articles on Facebook and is now bringing her case to biggest stage in the recruiting world, The Recruiting Animal Show, the place where lunchtime good guys make recruiters feel happy about what they do. Join us, today.

I get motivated by doing epic stuff and so can be found sometimes with a bloody nose for trying stuff

Everything I do, i believe in challenging the status quo.... I believe in thinking differently

The guest copped out at the last minute -- but I think he actually did us a favour.

There's so much to talk about I don't think we'll get to it all.

"Your team is only as strong as your weakest recruiter", says Larry.

"Larry is a wealth of sourcing knowledge. His knowledge of the latest hunting tools are next to none.
