What the Experts are Saying About TEAM Hiring...
"In a tight labor market where talent is in short supply, top professionals will benefit from this model. A longer-term relationship with a recruiter - in some ways like the agent relationship enjoyed by athletes and entertainers - is still a largely untested model, but its time has come."

- Allan Schweyer
Executive Director
Human Capital Institute



"A reasonable effort to articulate an 'agent' relationship. Certainly it can work- especially for well-known, high-demand professionals. Logic is there and firms will adopt any reasonable practice that gets them what they want.

Still -you'll need a lot of patience and passion to innovate 3rd party models- pushing large boulders uphill."

- Gerry Crispin, SPHR
Principal & Chief Navigator at CareerXroads

Concept
Talent Employment and Acquisition Management Hiring, an alternative to today's staffing model that is built upon hiring through personal and professional networking relationships.

Mission Statement
Become an integral component within a company's overall Human Capital Management strategy, and a critical driver of business performance.

Work Agreement
TEAM Hiring's Work Agreement between Hiring Customers and Recruiters.

The TEAM Hiring concept is based upon full disclosure and this document details the relationships, mark-ups, and fees that are associated with TEAM Hiring.

There are no costs to join and/or participate in the network. The ony time there is a "cost" is when a Hiring Customer makes a hire or employs a member of the Talent group. I feel these costs are fair, ethical, and practical. They are also standard "across the board" for the entire network.

Key Network Points
  1. A free, association based workforce network without corporate ownership or fees.

  2. A single recruiter, chosen by the Talent, for representation allowing for long term relationships and full disclosure of information.

  3. Direct access to a network of industry professionals that agree to follow the network's highest principles of business ethics and have a proven record of marketplace honesty and integrity.

  4. One, independent employer of record service which allows for employee benefits "rollover."

  5. One, independent employer of record service that provides a single invoice to Hiring Customers for all contingent and contracted staff and commission payouts.

MyBizOffice is Ready to Enroll


MyBizOffice is ready to start enrolling TEAM Hiring Participants.

To begin, I will be letting those in the role of "Holding Recruiters" know to contact them directly. Gene Zaino, president of MyBizOffice, has given us two direct contacts to help enroll members and to also answer any general questions.

I'm going to first have Holding Recruiters join so that they can begin to add Talent to their "Talent Teams." The Talent Teams that are represented by Holding Recruiters, I believe, will be the foundation of the whole TEAM Hiring network.

Once the Holding Recruiters have enrolled with MyBizOffice, I will assign them a TEAM Hiring username and password so that they can begin to sign up Talent that they represent in the network. Right now, its sort of a step-by-step process since everything is new and the concept is new to each user.

The direct contacts at MyBizOffice are...

Kristin Dobbins
Direct: 703-793-6005
Email: kdobbins@mybizoffice.com




Julie Sullivan
Direct: 703-793-6006
Email: jsullivan@mybizoffice.com




Please let me know if you have any questions. As for now, I will be focusing on enrolling the Holding Recruiters and their represented Talent.

More Development with MyBizOffice


Had another meeting with MyBizOffice people last week and will be having another one this Wednesday.

Looks like they will be going live with a "portal page" on their website within the next 2 weeks. This will allow for online process flow for all participants in the TEAM Hiring Network (Hiring Managers, Listing Recruiters, Holding Recruiters, and Talent) when it comes to "signing up" for paychecks, commissions, and invoicing. They are also adapting a piece of their internal process to support the TEAM Hiring concept.

Since the whole "TEAM Hiring" idea is moving pretty fast, so are they. Something I greatly appreciate.

Once this portal is up, I'll let everyone know. With it, I will also start to have Holding Recruiters start to "sign up" Talent for them to represent. More to come on that also.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

I was asked if TEAM Hiring is the same as Top Echelon?


Some differences between Top Echelon and TEAM Hiring (to the best of my understanding)...

* Top Echelon is a "add-on" for the current staffing model. TEAM Hiring is an alternative to the current staffing model.

* Top Echelon is a network for recruiters. TEAM Hiring is a network for recruiters, hiring managers, and Talent.

* Top Echelon benefits recruiters. TEAM Hiring benefits recruiters, hiring managers and their companies, and Talent.

* With Top Echelon, Talent is still required to work with many different recruiters and their agencies. Meaning, no benefits roll over, no long term career development, and no commitments to or from each other. With TEAM Hiring, I'm trying to build a way for the recruiter and the Talent to be able to build a long term relationship with ethical and professional commitments to each other. I think today's Talent/Recruiter relationship is a quick hit or miss type situation. I think its that way, not because people like it, but because there are not any other viable options out there.

* All fees will paid by the Hiring Customers after a placement through the network has been made. Otherwise, there are not costs (to participate, for instance). Top Echelon has a monthly charge for membership

* No one "owns" relationships in this network. Hiring Managers can give their Job Orders to which ever Listing Recruiters they want to. Most likely these will be given to ones with whom the Hiring Manager has developed a relationship with. As the Hiring manager moves in their career, they can also "take with" them the Listing Recruiters that work with them. With the Talent/candidates, each Talent chooses a single Holding Recruiter to represent them to all the Listing Recruiters in the network. Of course, the Holding Recruiter must be in agreement with this relationship. As time goes on, if either the Talent or Holding Recruiter wish to end the relationship, they can. For instance, if the Talent does not feel they are being represented/marketed in the best way, they can choose to have a different Holding Recruiter represent them with no "penalties." I'm hoping this acts like a "filter" of sort. I'm thinking that the as people begin to qualify their own personal network the best will rise to the top and be noticed.

Top Echelon is good at what it does, but TEAM Hiring is about doing something different. I think they are apples and oranges and serve two different purposes.

MyBizOffice


On Friday, I had a great conversation with the people at MyBizOffice.

I plan on moving forward with a having them act in the role of the vendor that supplies back office support to the TEAM Hiring Network. This includes single invocing the Hiring Customers, w2 paychecks, invoicing for recruiters, paying of commission checks, benefits, etc.

They will provide another vendor option for people. The other option is Innovative Employee Solutions. I would say they are similar, but have a different business focuses. It will be interesting to see how the two choices plays out.

Any feedback from anyone regarding mybizoffice? Ideas, comments,etc..

TEAM Hiring Recruiter Group on ERE


I have created a discussion group for recruiters interested in participating in the TEAM Hiring network. It just started December 7th, and we already have 129 recruiters in the group. My goal for the week is to get it listed in the "Top Ten" of ERE's groups so that more recruiters will hopefully join. To do that, I need at least 185 participants in the discussion group. If you know any interested recruiters, please refer them. The deeper the network, the better.

New Role: Sponsored Listing Recruiter


This is a twist to the existing Listing Recruiter role. Basically, a "Sponsored" Listing Recruiter is someone who works directly for a Hiring Customer. Either through direct employment or on a contract basis and are paid on a salary or hourly basis. In these cases, the Listing Recruiter commission fees are waived for all placements made through the network.

Below is a review of the Listing Recruiter Duties.

Listing Recruiters Duties

The Listing Recruiter’s primary duties include direct contact with the Hiring Manager and account management in regards to the hiring process for an open job order. Communication with the Hiring Manager for each Job Order shall be only through the Listing Recruiter(s) which originally listed the Job Order. Listing Recruiters can network their Job Orders with all Holding Recruiters in the Network.

Addition duties include:
  • Identify customer needs and take appropriate action.

  • Provide detailed job requirement information to Holding Recruiters.

  • Initiate interview process.

  • Responsible for informing Network Manager or Representative of all placements and the details of those placements.

  • Recommends new products and services by evaluating current product results; identifying needs to be filled.

  • Responsible for developing business and long lasting client relationships.

Electronic Recruiting Exchange (ERE)


Another group designation. For recruiters only. Within the ERE web site, TEAM Hiring has a group designation. It just went live today and I will be seeking out recruiters to participate. I'm hoping to get a lot of great feedback and "constructive criticism" from this group. If you are a recruiter and are not a member of ERE, I strongly suggest you join. Its free.

LinkedIn.com Group Designation


Great news! On December 14th, we will be going live with a LinkedIn.com group designation. I think this is going to help tremendously with Talent and Hiring Managers that want to connect with a Holding or Listing Recruiter within the network. As of today, their are over 800 interested senior to mid-level professionals interested in participating as Talent.
