Doesn't this remind anyone of Axel from Twisted Metal? You have a huge wheel and a shirtless guy riding it. Mmmm, I can imagine the fiery explosions that will ensue.
i feel a need to correct you.
What you fail to take into account is the relative number of positions being offered in the different services.
For instance, if only 5% of all jobs offered are listed on Monster, 3.5% or whatever would be fantastic.
that would just mean that 70% of postings on job boards are filled. the fact that you're competing for only the 3.6% of all jobs that are available, and the fact that you are competing with however many millions of other users for those same 3.6% still remain.
You also fail to address the fact that the services are more useful in certain industries, and almost completely useless in most industries. For instance, most fast food jobs are filled by word of mouth. So? That doesn't help Lockheed Martin find talented engineers.
while true, this does not change the validity of his arguments.
And the worst part is, you fail to remind the readers that your interests lie orthogonal to those of the job services.
actually, he addressed that.
Headhunters are middlemen. Job sites are an attempt at removing the middleman, allowing companies to ultimately get better candidates cheaper. Likewise, candidates get better and easier access to jobs.
actually, job boards are attempting to be middlemen themselves. "removing the middleman" would be using your networking skills to find a job. like people have said.
