We currently use Majordomo for our listserv so people can subscribe/unsubscribe individually. But many people don&#39;t want to take the steps themselves and email us to do it for them. Still counter-intuitive when so many people are looking for jobs but oh well. Thanks for stopping by!Deirdrehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03919953607612897043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8099321199054904439.post-33341722309864616412010-02-10T20:44:08.823-05:002010-02-10T20:44:08.823-05:00I agree with everyone, great tips, and so true!<br /><br />Some spontaneous ideas of my own:<br />When offering to email candidates with job openings, you could add the following information:<br />* add your email address to their contacts. This should avoid problems with spam filters<br />* if they use a dedicated job search email address, they should forward messages to their main email account<br /><br />This is getting more complicated, but you could also send job opportunities as a newsletter. This way candidates can unsubscribe automatically. And if you use a known service like aweber, the spam problem can also be avoided (although it costs).<br /><br />And one last idea, then I&#39;ll shut up for now: you could publish job openings on a blog (can be discreetly integrated on the &quot;jobs&quot; page of your company website) with the option of RSS feed, posts per email and automatic Twitter updates. Now wouldn&#39;t that be awesomely geeky? ;-)Etiennehttp://twitter.com/HappyEmployeenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8099321199054904439.post-91402731607187483862010-02-10T05:36:53.005-05:002010-02-10T05:36:53.005-05:00Not only are these wonderful tips, as usual, I now know a good use for that Google Voice number I have too!

I am always so surprised when people opt out. Seems sort of counter intuitive.Deirdrehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03919953607612897043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8099321199054904439.post-48977327117074414382010-02-09T11:17:19.236-05:002010-02-09T11:17:19.236-05:00Point #4 is so important. I too get frustrated by people who wanted to hear about every opening - until they get a job for themselves. It&#39;s so important to continue networking to manage your career and helping others is one of the best ways to do that.Jennifer McClurehttp://www.cincyrecruiter.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8099321199054904439.post-56673436670605074052010-02-08T21:49:09.549-05:002010-02-08T21:49:09.549-05:00Great comments, Deirdre.
