I'm a proponent of 3-D analysis as it simply creates more opportunity for connection. Yes, Twitter + other forms of new media are serendipitous, particularly at the first level of connection. This is definitely one valuable touchpoint to recruiting in the world of new media as opposed to the "paper-based" submittal method. IMHO, savvy talent acquisition strategy will continue to benefit from a multi-dimensional approach to sourcing talent. We certainly have more connection options now; it's about maintaining quality standards along the way. Exciting times. @SourcePOV Thoughtful comments, thanks Chris.

Intuition and 3-D view are critical. The moral of the story to me: how do we create more opportunities for serendipitous connections like the one at Starbucks that you shared above? Is that where Twitter and related forms of social media can begin to transform paper-based recruiting? Looking forward to hearing more - I definitely think you're on to some important themes.

Agree, let's move beyond the superficiality to learn + connect. @JenniferBruton Thanks Jennifer. Sometimes you have to stick it out for clients + career seekers.

Some of the greatest things we can do for our clients is point out that looking past the superficial can pay off big time. Great story about sticking with a candidate you believe in.

Stories are dedicated to the wonderful + interesting people (personalities) I have encountered through the years. You are so correct - there will always be great value in finding + connecting with (key phrase) the elusive "passive" candidate. @Jessica Miller-Merrell Appreciate your comments Jessica.
