Slide deck from a presentation I delivered at the DFWTRN meeting in Dallas, TX on 4/1/09. The title of the presentation is: "TwitterTools4Recruiting." Special thanks to Bryan Starbuck, CEO at TalentSpring, for the use of several slides from his presentation titled, "Is Twitter a Waste of Time" (http://tinyurl.com/dzrr66). Thanks also to RecruiterGuy.net (Chris Hoyt) for doing it right and serving up terrific examples of how recruiters can use Twitter and Social Media to positively impact their recruiting efforts.

over 752% 964% in the last calendar year... well, you're
simply wrong.”
