A Note from the Editor
On October 7th, the day before our UK Recruiter Technology Showcase, we will be co-hosting, with our friends at Colleague Software, a #rechangout entitled "Recruitment Technology Revolution: Just around the corner or more of the same?" to discuss what is going on with recruitment technology. Topics will include the latest tech and new inventions; the latest trends: video, psychometrics, ‘big data’, the CRM, inbound marketing, sourcing; what should you, as a recruitment leader, be looking out for and; what recruitment businesses need to do to become data businesses. You can find all the details here.

I also came across this excellent summary of recruitment blogs (and I'm not just saying that because we are on it!) from Coburn Banks this week. As the article says, it list "the 10 most reputable sources of advice, information and news for hiring managers, HR reps, recruiters, bosses and those who are simply interested in business". It is well worth a read.
