'“Staffing is not a sleazy business, I am not a parasite, I do want to help people find work and if I ask a candidate what they made at their last assignment it’s not so I can lowball them on their next one.

'Recruiting is often likened to hunting, and for good reason. (After all, they don’t call them “headhunters” for nothing). But are you actively hunting , i.e. strategically pursuing candidates? Or have you fallen into a more passive role, like a trapper on the sidelines, wondering when the candidate will make a move? I recently asked Peter Kazanjy, co-founder of TalentBin, and Nancy Soni, founder of FILD, to muse on what separates the hunters from the trappers.
