I receive on average 200 emails a day. Most of those are ads that can be easily deleted, bills that can wait but when I receive a business or personal email I try to reply as soon as I receive it. That courtesy is not always extended to me. I marvel at how many times I send an email to a forme...

Interesting article in Friday's NY Times about the fading perks for summer internships at investments banks. http://nyti.ms/nRCqJj. While the 10 weeks are a great method of interviewing talent from the Bank's perspective, it really should be viewed by the intern as a "realty check" of what life ...

This morning's paper talks about how companies are retreating from using online job boards indicating a preference for the personal interview. As expected, job boards flood companies with quantity, not quality resumes. For those firms that don't have in house campus recruiting staffs, Campus Sco...

Hey, Millennials. I know that you would love to get that "perfect job" right out of school, but right now that "perfect job" may not exist or there are hundreds of other candidates competing for it. So, take a few minutes to think about why that perfect job would be perfect for you if not today ...

Out of the rubble of the great recession are emerging all sorts of new ventures and entrepreneurial initiatives. I’ve previously reported on the plethora of new “consulting” organizations that have cropped up, but I just learned of a great new idea. A couple of weeks ago, I met with Lynn Gray--who, most recently, was hailed as chief administrative officer for the Real Estate Group at Lehman--and she told me about her new start-up,Campus Scouts, an outsourcing organization that will represent companies recruiting on campus. With cutbacks on all fronts, most firms large and small will be short-staffed and will have a hard time re-gearing their campus recruiting efforts, which will be bad news for freshly minted graduates, and for a real estate industry that needs to rebuild and attract fresh young talent. I thought this was a wonderful and timely idea, and wanted to let you know about it, as our attention is beginning to focus on the anticipated recovery in 2009 and, hopefully, plans for stocking-up on interns and a new crop of analysts next summer.
