Wowie that didn't come across correctly.
A simple honest suggestion got me -2 karma and a lot of harrassing?
I am sure that many recruiters are doing their jobs the best they can. I have met several. At the same time, recruiting is a lot like selling. If recruiting ties itself with money bonuses for the amount of recruits you bring in, or if there is a certain quota you have to hit, then people will start to feel the pressure of "getting the recruit to sign the dotted line." Its just natural, anyone in sales has had that temptation to bend the truth to get the product/service sold.
To combat that temptation, I am simply suggesting a 3rd party source of good information that can be used to verify what the recruiter is saying. I even mentioned getting seperated vets to help bring new recruits in because they would be the most helpfull. Someone with no bonus on the line could serve as a very objective resource.
If you are a recruiter and you are doing a good job, then great. You will be able to explain the challenges and the benefits in a good way and you'll still bring in many recruits. This service would only back up your words and help you retain more of the guys going through your station.
If someone isn't an honest recruiter, then yeah, they may have trouble with this kind of service. At the end of the day though, the needs of the military will be best served by seperated vets helping get new recruits in the doors and those new recruits getting the right information.
Do you like nukeworker.com and the service it provides in giving honest answers? Then why would you have a prolem with a service built on the same concept? Nukeworker makes money serving as a connection between good companies and good workers. I'm glad nukeworker makes money because it is a helpfull service. That's the same idea behind this military recruiting service.
I appreciate Nukeworker.com and the members on here who take time to give good advice.
Btw, I did find a very good source as I looked around again last night.
