The Hire Sense » Assonance Alert: Archive Annual Awards

Assonance Alert: Archive Annual Awards

Well, I should qualify that; I suppose an Oscar, Grammy, Tony, etc. is a timeless award.  However, I just read an employment ad from a large recruiting firm that had this bolded statement at the top:

#1 Ranked Executive Search Firm - January 2006

January 2006?  My first thought was who beat them out for the past 2 years.  Maybe they have drastically declined in some way?

Call me a minimalist, but I prefer to get right to the meat in an employment ad.  In fairness to this firm, this was an internal hire.  Still, I would think they would have a bit more sense to remove that statement since it is more than outdated.

    Someone actually left that for an employment ad? Funny, but probably got some good responses!
