So one of the highlights of my career happened today when I got an email from my former director, Lori Kinney at imc2. As most of you know, I worked at imc2 for almost two years (recruited for them) and the last few months of my career there, I had the wonderful opportunity to work on getting imc2 up to date on social networking and recruiting. I’ve blogged before about the importance of using Twitter as a recruiter tool and it’s great to know my work with my awesome recruiting team has paid off. Lori was interviewed by the prestigious Ad Age about our efforts as one of the few ad agencies who began “twittering” about job openings with the company and also using other social networking sites (MySpace, Facebook, Pownce, etc) to recuit top-notch talent.

Lori sent me an email she sent to the VP of HR at imc2 and she was so wonderful in giving the “thanks” to me for spearheading the social networking piece for our recruiting team. It truly made me feel appreciated and valued… which comes as no surprise to those who know Lori as she truly is one of the best directors I have ever worked with.

Here’s the link to the Ad Age article and her interview with them on why it’s important to use social networking as a recruiter. I hope you enjoy it!
