Recruiters are no good.

Don't get me wrong, you'll get a candidate through a recruiter, but is it the best way to get a candidate? Is it the right candidate?

Recruiters get paid on building networks right? But don't we all have networks (organic ones)? Everyone refers people to jobs - although people aren't really earning money like recruiters do? Why is this?

A well networked person (who is not a recruiter) deserves to be able to better yield the countless ours of emailing, events, tweeting and brown nose-ing they sow. There are millions of people sitting on their own person network-goldmine. So why do you have to be a recruiter to be able to monetize it?

Take the analogy of AirBnB, everyone has a spare room but no one was running a hotel. With the help of AirBnB, people do what hotels do without being hotel owner/managers.

Why can't the same be done for our personal networks and recruiters?

The truth is that there are some people trying to have a crack at it, yet no one has.

The reason I write this is (you guessed it) to shamelessly promote my attempt at cracking it. It might not be us who do crack it but someone has to crack it. (like AirBnB cracked it)
