Very interesting post about effective candidate sourcing (hat tip to @SteveBoese). Automating common practices does not always lead to optimal results.

A good reminder that sourcing does not entirely revolve around social technologies. Also, QuietAgent was one of the vendors in our "Cool Vendors in Human Capital Management Software, 2009" research note.

Very interesting development following in the footsteps of Checkster and Rypple. Talent management owned by the Talent, not the employer. This goes further with employer ratings, not just employee ratings. Portability of the talent profile (or social resume if you prefer), will be increasingly important for employees because they will likely work more than 20 jobs in their lifetime.

It is an interesting dichotomy that HR professionals are typically not tech savvy, yet leading edge technology is often used in HR first. HR was early adopters of client/server (HRMS) and multi-tenant SaaS (Recruiting) solutions. I agree with the overall point though - HR and IT need to partner to get the best results.
