Hi All, I've been watching this thread wind up (and wind down), and I've seen the participants on both sides over-react.
Now, I have no personal stake in all this, other than the fact that I subscribe to CF-Jobs and CF-Jobs-Talk and I don't like seeing this kind of crap. Phillip, Ray, etc.: If you don't like a job posting, please feel free to not apply for it. Christian: If you don't like a candidate, please feel free to trash their resume. To all of you: If you are reading this, then you are obviously either looking for a position, or looking for a candidate to fill a position. How you act on this list reflects on how others perceive you. My 2 cents, and now I withdraw back to lurking status. -- Mike Wolfe > -----Original Message----- > From: Rey Bango [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Monday, August 07, 2006 8:03 PM > To: CF-Jobs-Talk > Subject: Re: IDEA: Candidate Blacklist > > Christian, > > I think you should just let this go and not perpetuate the situation. > You have your list of candidates so your posting achieved > your expected > results. > > As Cameron said, all this is being googled and the last thing > you want > is for anyone, especially a prospective client, to see you actually > engaged in a flame war over a job posting. > > Take the higher ground man and go close some business. > > Rey.... > > Christian N.
