So it seems like a mutual lack of standards for both sides.

It’s a Business Insider link, which is perfectly respectable. I’m sorry you can’t see it, but keep in mind that they make money through advertisements and if you block the ads they don’t make any money.

Are you aware that the site for the link in your article for “high level people who lied on their resumes” prohibits access unless I turn off my ad-blocker or pay $1 to read the article? I refuse to do either, and just wanted to let you know that this may impact my willingness to continue reading your posts.

Most “recruiters” should be in any other profession than “recruiting”
2. Recruiting should be a function of the Sales department not HR
3. Most companies want to believe that zipRecruiter is recruiting…hint….
4. The reason people should “go around” the recruiter? See #1
5. BLS reports the average employee contributes $31,000 per month in revenue contribution. Average TPR fee is just over $20k. So, if your job is open more than a month, even I can do that math.

If your job has been open longer, like the one we just filled, open for 19 months before they came to us….$589,000 in lost revenue contribution….average TPR fee is just over $20k…did I mention how easy that math is.

However, refer back to #1 because it is pretty easy to find bad recruiters…what you want is a talent acquisition professional…someone for whom it is a career not a stepping stone or last step before leaving a company…$14 per hour…did I mention how easy the math is?
