dgillies @kleboe nice web site. Legit. #Schat -12:48 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

MaureenSharib @dgillies Oil is fun. Interesting. You learn all sorts of things. #SChat -12:48 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

kleboe @dgillies Nice specialism. Get a lot of IT but don't do it. Upstream IT is fanstastic. #SChat -12:47 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

dgillies gotta split. good talking to you all. #Schat -12:47 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

dgillies @kleboe ah. I see. That is alot. #Schat -12:47 PM Dec 6th, 2011

 

kleboe @dgillies http://t.co/urB6eoKq - commercial, finance & legal across industry, consutlancy, buy side and sell side (and banking) #SChat -12:46 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

afluhrer yes, and other locations in the USA #schat -12:46 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

dgillies I do IT who focus on oil...geologists and geophysicists who handle the drilling apps and systems #Schat -12:46 PM Dec 6th, 2011

 

 

dgillies @MaureenSharib oil rocks, esp if in Houston. #Schat -12:45 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

afluhrer oil- doing oil right now #schat -12:45 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

dgillies @kleboe yes...the "wee" pond. I am in oil. I just sent you a tweet. What do you specialize in? #Schat -12:44 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

MaureenSharib @kleboe I've done lots of oil. #SChat -12:44 PM Dec 6th, 2011

kleboe @dgillies You are in oil? I'm based in Edinburgh, UK. You over the wee pond? #SChat -12:43 PM Dec 6th, 2011

dgillies @kleboe sounds like we do the same thing. #Schat -12:41 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

dgillies @1CoraMae ah, got it. good point. #Schat -12:40 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

MaureenSharib See you next week! Thanks everyone! #SChat -12:40 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

1CoraMae I LOVE mailrooms! #SChat -12:40 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

kleboe @MaureenSharib they use a specific software but they are not IT. Don't worry, I've got some ideas. dgillies had a good suggestion. #SChat -12:40 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

1CoraMae see you next week! #SChat -12:39 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

MaureenSharib @kleboe Random sucks. My advice is to stab in. Do they have a MailRoom? That used to work for me when I started! #SChat -12:39 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

1CoraMae because they can't ask my name or company - I already told them so it l.ooks like I have a legit reason to call in #SChat -12:39 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

MaureenSharib @kleboe They're not in IT are they? I don't know why I thought you were looking in IT. I got mixed up. #SChat -12:38 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

1CoraMae @dgillies they may ask your name and check the employee list so i give it to them up front with my compan y throws them off base #SChat -12:38 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

TreyDunmon Great read all, thanks! #SChat -12:38 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

kleboe @MaureenSharib - No extensions are totally random!- Thanks for your time Maureen. Genuine thanks. #SChat -12:38 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

kleboe @MaureenSharib No - Economic Analyst in Oil. They don't need a technical background. Thanks for everything - good pointers today. #SChat -12:37 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

dgillies @1CoraMae great to hear from you, Cora. #Schat -12:37 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

dgillies @MaureenSharib Thanks for your time Maureen! #Schat -12:37 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

1CoraMae @dgillies true. #SChat -12:37 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

MaureenSharib We're six minutes over. @kleboe Have you checked their internal dials? Do groups align next to each other? #LongChance #SChat -12:36 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

dgillies @1CoraMae going after "publicly known" role is easier to do that...not a techie geek deep in the bowels of IT #Schat -12:36 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

BozziePup Is that your baby picture Jerry? Well, this explains a lot RT @Jerry_Albright: @MaureenSharib Helping Mommy make her Christmas list. #schat -12:36 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

1CoraMae Well they usually ask your name and your company... I already gave it to them in a confident voice so I belong #SChat -12:35 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

MaureenSharib RT @dgillies: @1CoraMae if you mention your company then they for sure know you arent calling internally. Hm... #SChat -12:35 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

MaureenSharib @kleboe You're looking for Drilling Analysts? Aren't those engineers? #SChat -12:35 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

1CoraMae @1CoraMae #SChat -12:34 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

dgillies @1CoraMae if you mention your company then they for sure know you aren't calling internally. Hm... #Schat -12:34 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

MaureenSharib @kleboe You could try that but the likelihood is it will ring false. #SChat -12:34 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

MaureenSharib @TreyDunmon That's true. You're working for someone who "needs" the info! I like it! #SChat -12:34 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

dgillies @1CoraMae agreed. they can hear the tense voice.....makes mine tense anyway. #Schat -12:33 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

kleboe @MaureenSharib No. I'm in oil. Technical is Drilling, Find Oil (geophysics) etc #SChat -12:33 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

1CoraMae @dgillies Yep, Hi this is Cora Lengeman from Norwood Network please connect with your Controller.... #SChat -12:33 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

TreyDunmon Well technically I do need this for my boss. So I can say it straight forward. #SChat -12:33 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

kleboe @MaureenSharib big place, doubt they know each other. A way to answer the 'email me' objection up front? 'My email is down?' #SChat -12:33 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

MaureenSharib @kleboe It sounds like you need to talk to another dept. THINK who interacts w/ IT on a daily basis. #SChat -12:33 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

dgillies Maureen, do you open up using your whole name, or just your first name? #Schat -12:33 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

1CoraMae I am really bad a rusing - it's a lie and I just can't do it #SChat -12:32 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

HeyOverbey #Recruiters: add Source Chat to your arsenal of tools! Tweets about #SChat had 13,619 impressions today! http://t.co/LUccmDBz -12:32 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

MaureenSharib @kleboe Technical - you mean R&D? #SChat -12:32 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

TreyDunmon @dgillies If the GK ask more then one question answer with something very technical. USUALLY the GK isnt versed in details. #SChat -12:31 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

MaureenSharib @animal: @Jerry_Albright Youre adorable. What would you be doing w/ OUR Cost Accountant? #SChat -12:31 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

dgillies @1CoraMae Do you open with your full name? I do. Not sure is good idea??? #Schat -12:31 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

MaureenSharib @TreyDunmon "Need this for my boss" can be very effective. HOWEVER most are not comfortable rusing. #SChat -12:31 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

dgillies @1CoraMae I always say, "got a call coming in, let me call you back". then hang up. #Schat -12:30 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

kleboe @MaureenSharib All the other departments, technical, finance, etc #SChat -12:30 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

animal RT @MaureenSharib: @Jerry_Albright You're adorable. What would you be doing w/ out Cost Accountant? #SChat -12:30 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

MaureenSharib @kleboe Who in that office would know the IT team? Accounting? Do they have a Finance dept in the office? #SChat -12:30 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

1CoraMae @dgillies if asked more than one question - hang up they don't remember u #SChat -12:30 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

MaureenSharib @kleboe Big. What else is in the office? #SChat -12:29 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

HeyOverbey RT @Jerry_Albright: Hi. Im Jerry Albright. Im only 9 months old. Who is your cost accountant? #SChat -12:29 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

TreyDunmon This way open with "quick" and if needed heads towards emotional. Most people can idientify with "need this for my boss" #SChat -12:29 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

MaureenSharib @dgillies: @TreyDunmon The trick is to not prompt her to start asking questions. You must remove the mystery for her. #SChat -12:29 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

dgillies @1CoraMae Yes! if person answers who is perky, I respond dull. Throws them off and they just want to give me info and send on #Schat -12:29 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

animal RT @Jerry_Albright: Hi. I'm Jerry Albright. I'm only 9 months old. Who is your cost accountant? #SChat -12:28 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

MaureenSharib @Jerry_Albright You're adorable. What would you be doing w/ out Cost Accountant? #SChat -12:28 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

kleboe @MaureenSharib 2000+ #SChat -12:28 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

dgillies @TreyDunmon they ask you more than one question, then you are dead in the water #Schat -12:28 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

1CoraMae articulating, pitch, rate (speed), intensity (volume), quality of voice, enunciation all important #SChat -12:28 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

MaureenSharib @kleboe A regional office with IT team? How large is office? #SChat -12:27 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

Jerry_Albright Hi. I'm Jerry Albright. I'm only 9 months old. Who is your cost accountant? #SChat -12:27 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

MaureenSharib @TreyDunmon You're rusing when you approach like this. You comfortable doing that? #SChat -12:26 PM Dec 6th, 2011

   

kleboe @MaureenSharib No, regional office in Aberdeen, Scotland. @dgillies actually you might be on to something there #SChat -12:26 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

Jerry_Albright Sorry I'm late. Let's get started. #SChat -12:26 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

Hire_Friday Thanks again for another #Schat gotta get back to work. Gr8 to chat will all of you today -12:26 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

MaureenSharib RT @dgillies: @kleboe yes. Hi, Sandy. This is David Gillies. Who can.....? <-GOOD #SChat -12:26 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

dgillies @1CoraMae thanks, Cora! Good to see you. Still feel quite like the novice, but it is getting better. #Schat -12:26 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

Hire_Friday RT @MaureenSharib: @Hire_Friday I tend to ask same question the same ways... might vary my pitch somewhat but not usually.If it's working I keep at it. #SChat -12:25 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

dgillies @kleboe yes. Hi, Sandy. This is David Gillies. Who can.....? #Schat -12:25 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

Hire_Friday RT @HeyOverbey: Good sourcers take on the mantle of the position she is filling for - at least the jargon anyway. Sourcers have to be curious. #SChat -12:25 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

dgillies @MaureenSharib several flavors of DBA. better know EXACTLY which one you want and how to ask #Schat -12:24 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

MaureenSharib @kleboe Headqtrs? #SChat -12:24 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

TreyDunmon "I had a call into him concerning widget for my boss. Can you you send me to his ext? I dont want to be in hot water over this." #SChat -12:24 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

1CoraMae @dgillies Hey, it sounds like you're getting it now! sorry I missed last few weeks #SChat -12:24 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

Hire_Friday @MaureenSharib Thanks for the advice and ideas Maureen, you've convinced me it's time to record another podcast with you #SChat -12:24 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

HeyOverbey Good sourcers take on the mantle of the position she is filling for - at least the jargon anyway. Sourcers have to be curious. #SChat -12:24 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

kleboe @dgillies I like that approach, state your name like you work there #SChat -12:24 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

MaureenSharib @Hire_Friday I tend to ask same question the same ways... might vary my pitch somewhat but not usually.If it's working I keep at it. #SChat -12:24 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

dgillies @kleboe bigger the company, the easier. Don't have time to think about you. #Schat -12:23 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

Hire_Friday @MaureenSharib You ought to consider doing a webcast w/video for sourcers you meet on Twitter, just a thought #SChat -12:23 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

MaureenSharib @IT_headhunter I'd suggest this part:"the DBA? Who is that?" is2much.Also, are you saying her name when she answers?IF she tells you? #SChat -12:23 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

kleboe @MaureenSharib Yes, Schlumberger #SChat -12:23 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

Hire_Friday And relevant too RT @dgillies: must know PERTINENT questions to ask for role #Schat -12:22 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

animal @MaureenSharib Actually I wd only say it if it was true. Lots of those girls are really nice - which doesnt mean it isnt hard work #schat -12:22 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

MaureenSharib @kleboe Is it a large company? #SChat -12:22 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

dgillies must know PERTINENT questions to ask for role #Schat -12:21 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

Hire_Friday @MaureenSharib vocal tone, vocal pitch and voice variety will give different content/context for approach- ask same ? 5 different way #SChat -12:21 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

MaureenSharib @animal what's often true? Your schmoozing? #SChat -12:21 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

IT_headhunter @MaureenSharib This is Tom I would like to speak to the person in IT who manages the databases - the DBA? Who is that? #SChat -12:21 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

MaureenSharib @TreyDunmon What if she says "No"? Then what? #SChat -12:21 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

dgillies key for IT is knowing what the person actually does, so it is more difficult to do ALL IT. If specialize, then know exactly what do. #Schat -12:21 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

animal @MaureenSharib Thats for real and its often true #Schat -12:20 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

kleboe @MaureenSharib Got to Team Assistant, 'she says email me', got to Manager 'same', receptionist 'same'. It's a constant issue. #SChat -12:20 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

MaureenSharib If I've missed your question repost please. #SChat -12:20 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

TreyDunmon Most GK's are busy with other things. Just ask directly. Linkedin helps with who was there last. "Is John Doe still the COO?". #SChat -12:20 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

Hire_Friday RT @HeyOverbey: Meantime @MaureenSharib will go on site to a company and give a powerful training!!! Even sales departments can use it! @Hire_Friday #SChat -12:19 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

MaureenSharib @animal gag gag #SChat -12:19 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

MaureenSharib @Hire_Friday It loses some. Hearing is very very helpful though I IMAGINE. #SChat -12:19 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

HireFriday1 @animal Do you actually say that to gatekeepers? #Schat -12:19 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

dgillies @MaureenSharib yes. looking on.... #Schat -12:19 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

HeyOverbey Meantime @MaureenSharib will go on site to a company and give a powerful training!!! Even sales departments can use it! @Hire_Friday #SChat -12:19 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

MaureenSharib @kleboe What has happened so far? Where are you in the attempt? #SChat -12:19 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

kleboe @dgillies I've found putting on a very posh English accent very effective with GK's - I'm Scottish #SChat -12:18 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

animal Gee, you've got such a sweet voice. It's just a pleasure being on the phone with you #Schat -12:18 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

dgillies @dgillies not over-interested in result...not too anticipatory #Schat -12:18 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

MaureenSharib @IT_headhunter Tell me what you say when she answers - word 4 word. @dgillies - you see this? #SChat -12:18 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

Hire_Friday @MaureenSharib My theory is that people need to actually hear how it's done the print media loses the vocal component agree? #SChat -12:18 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

dgillies @ResearchReggie Great idea, Maureen! #Schat -12:18 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

dgillies @MaureenSharib a sigh or acting a bit distracted while they look helps. #Schat -12:18 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

MaureenSharib @animal So your male approach is to throw them off? Make them blush? #SChat -12:17 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

ResearchReggie RT @Hire_Friday: @MaureenSharib Hey, how about doing a pod-cast with me again where we can role model and people can HEAR how you approach decison mkr #SChat -12:17 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

dgillies @IT_headhunter you and I are in the same bucket. Welcome to my world. #Schat -12:17 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

MaureenSharib @Hire_Friday We could do that. #SChat -12:17 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

MaureenSharib @dgillies Uninterested could raise a challenge in female Gatekeepers - I could see that. Might make them try to help you overmuch. #SChat -12:17 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

kleboe @MaureenSharib Don't rouse? No names in the team at the moment, just that they might work on a certain software product. #SChat -12:17 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

dgillies @HeyOverbey yeah, but the "list" thing doesn't work for me. #Schat -12:16 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

Hire_Friday @MaureenSharib Hey, how about doing a pod-cast with me again where we can role model and people can HEAR how you approach decison mkr #SChat -12:16 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

animal @MaureenSharib That's a really cute dress you're wearing. They like to hear it but its confusing bcz they know I cant see them #schat -12:16 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

MaureenSharib @Hire_Friday There's never been anything like it written before. Publishers don't like that. #Unknown #SChat -12:16 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

IT_headhunter Maureen, how about reaching candidates in the IT? GK's rarely put me through without giving them a name. Any suggestions? #SChat -12:16 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

dgillies @MaureenSharib LOL! #Schat -12:16 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

dgillies @MaureenSharib yup. Like I expect to get what I want. Low voice. Uninterested. #Schat -12:16 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

HeyOverbey RT @Hire_Friday: @MaureenSharib Time to write a book for phone sourcing in 2012 #SChat -12:15 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

MaureenSharib @TreyDunmon Waiting for your spiel... #SChat -12:15 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

HeyOverbey I once heard someone say, "Sound like a bored sec'y out of her mind!" @MaureenSharib #SChat -12:15 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

Hire_Friday @MaureenSharib Time to write a book for phone sourcing in 2012 #SChat -12:15 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

dgillies @MaureenSharib I have to be careful not to say...who "in your group" does XXXX...makes me sound like not fellow employee. :) #Schat -12:15 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

MaureenSharib @dgillies Master of the Universe calling. #SChat -12:15 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

kleboe @dgillies Only way it works for me is rusing! In the UK everyone is a sceptic - Best approach is humour for me with GK's #SChat -12:14 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

MaureenSharib @dgillies I can see that working. Short and to the point. Kind of Commander like. #SChat -12:14 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

Hire_Friday @MaureenSharib in 2 cases I did have a name, but there's 1 in particular I can't get the name/s or those of colleagues 4 help #SChat -12:14 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

MaureenSharib @Hire_Friday Some extension numbers correspond to the last four digits of a direct dial. Know what I mean? #SChat -12:14 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

HeyOverbey RT @dgillies: @MaureenSharib Honestly, flat and a little impatient seems to work sometimes. #SChat -12:14 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

TreyDunmon "Do you have Jon Doe's Ext" Due to how busy they are they usually just blurt it out and then connect it. Granted name is needed #SChat -12:13 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

dgillies @MaureenSharib Honestly, flat and a little impatient seems to work sometimes. #Schat -12:13 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

MaureenSharib @Hire_Friday Not following - Margo. Do you mean decision maker is rushed? #SChat -12:13 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

MaureenSharib @kleboe Don't pose. Do you know anyone on the analyst team you want? #SChat -12:13 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

Hire_Friday @MaureenSharib Oh my gosh, I want the secret sauce #voicemail systems #SChat -12:13 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

dgillies @kleboe rusing! #Schat -12:12 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

MaureenSharib @dgillies That's a very good question. Men - what works for you in your approached to Gatekeepers? #SChat -12:12 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

MaureenSharib @Hire_Friday Less is usually more. Have you played w/ phone system at night? Some give their extension numbers. #SChat -12:12 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

Hire_Friday @HeyOverbey Good, what if she or he seems busy or rushed...and they are always busy w/is the value prop to get to decision maker #SChat -12:11 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

kleboe @MaureenSharib I'm looking for analysts, so mid-level, I want all the names on the team. I'm posing as offering a free seminar. #SChat -12:11 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

afluhrer HeyOverbey- yes, unless they are taught to direct all these to hr #schat -12:11 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

dgillies @MaureenSharib I think the dull/uninterested approach (secretary for list) works for you, Maureen, but what about men? #Schat -12:11 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

MaureenSharib @TreyDunmon Give me an example. What do you say to her WHEN SHE ANSWERS? Give it to me word by word. #SChat -12:10 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

Hire_Friday @MaureenSharib Ohhhhhh that's another good one Maureen how do you get past the multi headed octopus voice mail system #SChat -12:10 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

HeyOverbey Some cases I have had to say, "Well then who at your company CAN help me with...?" When I phrase it like that they sometimes open up. #SChat -12:10 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

MaureenSharib @kleboe What are you trying to accomplish? #SChat -12:10 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

MaureenSharib @kleboe Have you found the internal dial system and stabbed in around receptionist/asst or Hiring Manager? #SChat -12:10 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

Hire_Friday Good idea, do you use pipple or zabasearch? RT @afluhrer: you can try to find the managers email or call early AM or late PM #schat -12:09 PM Dec 6th, 2011

  

TreyDunmon I have noticed that the direct, quick question gets better results vs. buttering up a GK. thoughts? #SChat -12:09 PM Dec 6th, 2011
