Expert Opinion

Going Out On a Limb
By Christine Hirsch

As a recruiter, you may often be put in a position to go out on a limb for a colleague, friend, or relative to hire or refer someone who may not be the best candidate.  By doing this, are you really doing a disservice to the employer? Does this degrade your reputation?  Does this hurt or help you in the long run?

Even the most competent, charming and capable people have become unemployed in today's economic environment.  The underemployed and unemployed are attempting to leverage ever-expanding networks for access to those on the other side of the connection.  Requests to network for employment must show up in your in-box almost every day.  Whether you are compelled to offer aid because of an overdue IOU or an empathetic gesture, or simply because of a personal relationship, you may compromise your values and reputation by doing so.
