I Turned Up at the Wrong Interview!

This is an old story now, but The Mole saw it again and it really is a classic. If it can make the Mole laugh out load, it can't fail. Enjoy!

Guy Kewney, a white, bearded technology expert was astonished to see himself appear on screen as a black man with an apparent French accent. The BBC were interviewing "Experts" on the Apple Corps vs Apple Computers legal case. The producer mistakenly ushered Guy Goma to the News 24 studio after hearing his first name but perhaps believing "Kewney" to be a mispronunciation...

Hot! Hot! Hot!

Phew! It is boiling! Even though The Mole doesn't cope well with heat like this (fur and all - not a good combo), what a welcome change from the last few weeks!

The weather isn't the only thing hotting up either; TheCareerMole member count is growing rapidly - we're now just short of 1000 member in 8 weeks, which is fantastic. Thanks for your support so far; please keep spreading the word amongst your friends, family and colleagues. Everyone benefits from TheCareerMole.com!

Even more exciting; we are also in the process of onboarding a number of employers members on to MoleResourcing.com. Since our press launch 8 weeks ago we have been contacted by employers from banks to construction to media companies so watch this space for announcements and new vacancies being posted.

Have a great weekend - lets hope the weather sticks!

The Times

We featured today in The Times job section which you can read here:

http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/life_and_style/career_and_jobs/graduate_management/article2058945.ece

We are getting an increasing amount of very positive press coverage but we wanted to take this opportunity to respond to the concerns expressed by Deloitte. As we get more opportunities to engage with the press and employers through more in depth coverage of TheCareerMole.com, we feel the outcome of all these discussions will ultimately be positive.

We anticipated and share Deloitte’s concerns in this article. As such, we already have controls in place to prevent Moles focusing all of their time on recruiting rather than their day jobs: Moles can only be contacted by one candidate at a time, limiting the time they can spend referring people. Moles are incentivised to refer only the best candidates with the greatest chance of success, positively affecting their ‘Mole Rating’.

Uniquely, Moles are reactive, only logging in when suitable candidates contact them, unlike other sites where the equivalent of Moles, are expected to invest time proactively searching and matching candidates to jobs.

Employers and recruitment agencies can register on MoleResourcing.com: take control of their Moles, post jobs, track referred candidates and deactivate Moles if they are not recruiting.

TheCareerMole.com and MoleResourcing.com provide a forum with the tools and controls employers, employees and candidates need to get the most out of employee referral schemes and make recruitment more efficient.

If your employer has similar concerns to Deloitte please ask them to contact us directly. If our existing controls and processes do not already address their concerns, we will improve the site so it does. We believe TheCareerMole.com and MoleResourcing.com makes the recruitment industry better for everyone and we'd welcome any conversation to explain how and why so please do get in touch with your concerns, feedback and comments.

Thanks
