'Take a look at this chart: I spotted it the other week in an excellent blog post from Mobile business guru Benedict Evans. More than anything else that I’ve seen it underlines that the mobile internet isn’t just another channel it is a real quantum shift to a different way of doing things. Unfortunately that message doesn’t seem to be getting through when it comes to recruitment and I think that many employers and recruiters are still thinking about mobile in the wrong way.

'At the end of the day, it’s really not all that difficult to fire an employee. Sure, there’s general unpleasantness and bad, even sympathetic feelings involved, but if the person really deserves it, the termination process can be, at the very least, satisfying, if not to some degree cathartic. It’s certainly not our favorite task, but staffing professionals will easily terminate both internal and external staff when necessary.
