I’ve been a fan of the Talent Cast for a while now, which as a fellow recruiter, I find fascinating.
James’ point about Google’s depth of knowledge and what he describes as the AdWords effect is absolutely spot on.
But in exactly the same way that Big G has to recognise good content in other markets, there will always be space for smaller operators and local recruiters.
As James notes, even a future dominated by Google will leave gaps in the market.
