[LinkedinBlogger] A Special Endorsement of Craig Silverman

This is a special endorsement prompted by a singular
action that Craig Silverman of HireAbility took in
response to Hurricane Katrina.

As most recruiters, Craig Silverman has a high drive
to be successful.   But Craig is different in that he
publicly demonstrated that he knows the almost
illimitable power recruiters can access.   And he did
this is a single call to action letter centered around
a single catastrophic even: Hurricane Katrina.   Craig
gets it.   He understands the real power of recruiting
and networking.

At the time of Craig’s action, I was one of millions
distressed by the devastation caused by Hurricane
Katrina.   But by the time I’d finished reading
Craig’s call to action letter, I was not only
re-strengthened and encouraged, I was proud to call
myself a recruiter.  

Recruiters are, of necessity, high-energy people.
Sometimes, our high-energy gets us into trouble for
going too far in business.  But, even with all our
energy, we can’t go too far with using our recruiting
skills to bring appropriate attention and resources to
bear on the aftermath on Hurricane Katrina.  

Craig’s powerful recommendation that recruiters and HR
professionals encourage companies to raise and 1.)
contribute a Billion Dollars for the relief efforts
and 2.) use our skills to help people find jobs, is
the type of thing that recruiters should take pride in
using their considerable skills to accomplish.

This is a right usage of our skills in doing what we
do best: gathering people together.

exceptional task.  To visit Craig's Linkedin profile,
