JibberJobber Blog » Living Givers Gain With Your Professional Contacts
I first remember hearing the phrase Givers Gain from Scott Allen, author of The Virtual Handshake.
The concept made sense, as all good networkers should be giving, giving, giving, right?
I checked for a good definition of Giver’s Gain in wikipedia… their definition stinks. I like what I found on the Duct Tape blog:
If you give business to another professional, you will get business from them.
It’s as simple as that. If you GIVE, you will (or, I say, MAY) GET.
I think there are a number of factors here:
- You should GIVE regularly. Not just once, and wait for it to pay off…
- You should GIVE smartly. Don’t open your blackbook to anyone who comes along, don’t pass along referrals to people who you really don’t know, be careful who you are giving to, but once you have that confidence, give a lot.
- You should GIVE without expecting/demanding …

Meet my friend, Kristen Durkin, Director of Business Development at International Executive Research (IIPE), a firm which specializes in multilingual talent research, Name Generation, Prescreening/ Qualifying of candidates, and direct contact; i.e. cold-calling and email Campaigns.
Kristen is a member of my networking group, “Six Degrees from Dave”, however it wasn’t until last October during Shally’s “Talent Researching in Latin America” session at the ERE Conference that we met. She sat across the aisle with avid interest and providing her own perspectives on staffing challenges and opportunities in Mexico. After the session, shaking hands I realized the familiar name was indeed an RBC regular and conistent networker within SixDegrees. I smiled, knowing that this was …

JibberJobber Blog » What To Do With Your JibberJobber Account When You Land Your Job?
I love testimonials… I really got a kick out of this one, from a senior level marketing executive:
You told me two years ago how beneficial it will be to have all your job searching info archived some place where you can find it, dust it off and use it again at a later date.
Well, here I am, at a later date and when I returned to JibberJobber it was like returning home to a familiar and friendly “happy place”.
Don’t let this imply that being without a job two years ago was anything like a happy place but now that I’m at the doorstep of going through that process again, the info, processes, support, etc. resident on Jibberjobber made it feel like a friendly and welcome “happy place”.
I want to share with all your readers that it’s true…JibberJobber is a great place to safely keep your career growth …

YourHRGuy.com » I Don’t Need Your Two Cents
Are you searching for a blog topic? Looking for something that is timely and relevant?
Why don’t you write about the economy? Nobody is doing it (heh) and really we need more people telling us what’s going right, wrong and how we’re (not) fixing it. Even more, we really need more people who have no idea how the economy works to tell us how the economy is shaking down.
Opinions Are Like …
I’m not going to spend this post being a hater but it seems like everyone has something to say about the economy. Unless you are the Wall Street Journal, you are going to have to put an interesting or relevant spin on it for me to even read through it.
Laurie wrote about this phenomenon earlier about the person in your family that wants to tell you how the Federal Reserve is bogus or how the answer to …

JibberJobber Blog » JibberJobber Website Updates
It’s been TOO long since I’ve posted about updates to JibberJobber… we have had a number of releases since the last “what’s new” post, but they seemed to be kind of minor… but now that I’m going over this list I think it’s pretty cool stuff!
You can now associate Documents to Contacts and Companies. Previously you could just associate documents to job postings… doesn’t this make much more sense?
Degrees of Separation. When you add a new contact you can say who the person is “referred by.” Aside from constructing the Tree View (where you can see your network graphically), you can now see the Degree of Separation on the contact’s detail page.
You can upload your own image on My Account. Down the road we have some very cool stuff coming out where YOU can share more stuff with other JibberJobber users… and to let them …

The Recruiting Animal » Toronto Star Makes Welfare Look Bad
Toronto Star, ParentCentral.ca. Kala Aranrajh, a single mother of two children in Scarborough, knows too well. "I don't want them to see me worry, that I can't sleep because I am so worried," she said in Tamil. She survives on the monthly child tax benefit and welfare she receives, which barely cover her rent. Her language barrier and inability to afford child care limit her access to the resources in the community. People see this and wonder, "Why no mention of the dad? Where are the grandparents? How long has she been here? Why isn't she learning to speak English?"I've… [Link]
