The IEEE Foothill Section had a warm welcome out for Mr Ray Ybarra when he addressed our FENet meeting on Tuesday February 26, 2013.With his ample and ebullient humor, Ray was ready for a vigorous Q&A with our members.
What is the difference between a “Headhunter” and a “Recruiter”?
Just exactly why is it more than just a difference between a “Black Hat” and a “White Hat” as far as a job seeker is concerned?
What is the economic model for the current Recruiter’s job in our Foothill area and nearby Orange County area now, and what do the job seekers need to know about this economic model? Who handles liability insurance for consultants? Workingman’s compensation payments?
What are the benefits and drawbacks from short term contract technology jobs?
Should a job seeker pay a Recruiter up-front for his services?
How will the Recruiter handle his resume and cover letter?
Can a Recruiter and a job seeker create and effective partnership? Just how?
What about using social media?
Yes, lots of Q&A. it was a productive and active evening for all our attending FENet members.
