The entire SEARCH was handled using SMS (text messaging) on a cell phone as follows: 1. I sent message to college intern asking for above (php/secure server/shopping cart knowledgeable web designer) 2. I asked this individual (who is a star athlete, and very outgoing/sociable with lots of friends) to forward the message to anyone she knew 3. She forwarded the message to about 12 teachers/professors/coaches and recent graduates 4. One recent grad (now working one year) was employed by a newspaper company in Pennsylvannia managing their web presence. 5. We spoke - I hired him. He's been working for us for one year. Never met the guy !!! **BEST WEB DESIGNER I've EVER WORKED WITH !!!!

I am a big fan and user of mobile technology. I currently carry the new Samsung Instinct on my hip and never go anywhere without it. The best part is that it is my all-around machine. Sure, it is handy for recruiting purposes, but also being able to kick back after a hard day of recruiting by having access to a large collection of MP3 and live streaming TV! When feasible, I think every recruiter should have a smartphone. Robert Stanke http://www.robertstanke.com Great article. I am a big fan and user of mobile technology.
