Indeed.com is a pretty nifty job board which offers more than at first meets the eye. For those who may not be immediately familiar with this site, Indeed.com is a vertical search engine that has multiple uses, some conventional and some not quite so.
Among its most useful bits Indeed.com has a Job Search Tools page with more stuff on it than the average Joe could possibly want. But then again, some stuff that would leave a job seeker baffled can lead a recruiter to make more sense of the world.
For example, take the Job Trends tool and sneak-a-peek behind the job postings per capita link. Click a bit and voilà! 59.8 good reasons to visit the Atlanta Recruiting Roadshow – not including the free lunch!
See you there.

As I ask myself that question to help frame the upcoming Atlanta Roadshow I am reminded of an excellent post that Julian Seery Gude posted on EXCELER8ion.com: Business, more like open source software. The post was written during the week of Jeff Hunter’s seminal TalUncon held in January of this year.
Competition and the free market are great and I don’t mean as a passing fancy. That doesn’t mean that a free market capitalist system, or the businesses and individuals that drive it, are free of problems. Don’t jump to political conclusions though – I’m not hinting at a political agenda. I’m talking about financial systems and business and how we might be able to use a model like open source software to make business a lot better – regardless of where in the world your chair sits in this flat world, or what side of the political spectrum you favor. Participants convening today at The Talent Unconference have an opportunity to employ radical transparency and what I’d call open source business by dropping their guard.
As usual, thought-provoking and on point. Just like our friend Mr. McLeod at gapingvoid.com…
