  1. Re:I've dealt with many agencies. on Have You Personally Used an Honest Head Hunter? · · Score: 1

    I'll second the private recruiter bit. Eric Derby @ Software Scout did a great job finding me my current job (of 7 years). During a brief 'leave of absence, due to lay off', he worked hard to find me a new job. The market in Rochester, NY was lousy however, and I lucked out as my company hired me back on the day after my serverance package ran out.
    I would highly recommend going with someone like this. He took the time to get to know my skills, strengths and weaknesses, then continued to keep that data up to date, even though he knew I was happy where I was working. I tried several other sources to find a job while laid off, but all the big agencies would get me to come in for an interview with them, then never contact me again...

    There was a story on NPR a couple of days ago (Jan 31st) that discussed the use os credit checks by empoyees. It might offer some insight.

    Does anyone have any experience with the Terapin Mine? I have been looking at it as a portable MP3 player, and a good place to dump my wife's digital pictures, etc. Info is at http://www.terapintech.com/fea_mine.html
