I’m glad that you found my article on job board scams to be helpful. Even as an owner of a high traffic job board, I totally agree with you that most people find jobs through networking and that’s as it should be as the likelihood of a good match is higher. But that doesn’t mean that other tools like job boards are a bad idea or should be ignored as many (not most) do find job through job boards, whether they’re the big, general boards or the small, niche boards.
Steven, Thanks for sharing your views. I am glad we agree that for individual contributors and those young in their career, job boards deserve a place at the table. But we also agree that Executive level job search is very different and job boards are not an appropriate resources.
Thanks for commenting.
