recruiTV interview

Here at the Kennedy conference, one of the more interesting vendors to catch my eye is RecruiTV. Most notably, the company has set-up a camera in the booth (like, a real video camera) and is interviewing attendees.

Although it has yet to launch, Beaker.com will be familiar with many in the recruitosphere for the simple fact that the indelible Josh Akers of Workfarce fame left a cushy job at JobCentral to join the start-up.

Curiosity piqued, we grabbed Beaker.com CEO Jeffrey Clark for the skinny.
