Monday, November 17, 2008 at 11:18AM Carl Bradford, executive recruiter and principal of the Bradford Consulting Group, National Practice Director for The Adler Group as well as Certification Expert for Lou Adler’s Recruiting Method, conducted a comprehensive survey of job seekers in October of 2008. This was a very professional survey which compares and contrasts the way job seekers from different parts of the country perceive the ethics and professionalism of the recruitment industry. I asked Carl if I could share some of the results with other recruiters, job seekers and career industry professionals here. While the complete survey results are confidential, Carl graciously agreed to share an overview of the results with everyone.
