In many ways, blogs are a far better way for individuals and companies to represent themselves in the talent marketplace than traditional resumes and classifieds. I’ve spoken to many people who credit something they read in a blog for wanting to join a company, or wanting to hire someone.

Recruiters in particular have been innovative and prolific bloggers and blog readers.
