THE ‘3 DOLLAR PISTOL’ ROLE (OTE: $140,000 – $155,000+)

Posted on by Head Hunter Krpan in LEADERSHIP ROLES

3dollarPistolv2.png

Not a term heard often these days … unless you hang around Match and Fable’s offices!
One of it’s meanings refers to something being ‘hot’ … as in, attractive or desirable.
For example, “Match and Fable is hotter than a 3-dollar pistol”!

But, where did the term originate?
Well, back in the mid-1800’s … gun manufacturers like; Remington, Smith & Wesson and Winchester were selling a boat load of pistols.

As is often the case … counterfeiters saw an opportunity to capitalize … and make a quick buck.

To keep their pistol prices super low … their manufacturing processes and standards were naturally, extremely shoddy. Mismatched parts resulted in misaligned chambers and barrels … causing a slew of problems when fired! In fact, in some cases … these pistols would actually explode in the shooter’s hand!

What does this have to do with Match and Fable’s latest role?
Well … not much.
That said … this role is “hotter than a 3-dollar pistol” … and won’t last long!

THE ‘WALTER COLLINS‘ ROLE (OTE: $110,000 – $132,000)

Posted on by Head Hunter Krpan in Random Thoughts

WALTERCOLLINS.png

On March 10, 1928 … Christine Collins’ nine-year-old son Walter left his house in Los Angeles … heading to the local movie theatre … and vanished, in thin air!

As news of Walter’s disappearance spread across America … the LAPD’s competence was called into question. While the department had received hundreds of leads … there were no developments in the case.

5 months after Walter’s disappearance … the LAPD announced they had wonderful news … Walter had been located in DeKalb, Illinois … and was coming home!

As Walter’s mother watched the boy step down from the train … she turned to Captain JJ Jones and explained this child was not her son! In a blind effort to “save face” for the LAPD … the Captain insisted Christine take the boy home and “try him out for a couple of weeks”?!?!?

When Christine returned a few weeks later (dental records in hand) … proving the boy was in fact, not Walter … Captain Jones had her committed to a psychiatric ward!

Long story short … the imposter eventually admitted to being a runaway, looking for a free ticket to Los Angeles (to meet his favourite actor) … and Christine was released.

Sadly … while there are various theories about the case … Walter’s body was never found and Christine never stopped hoping he’d eventually turn up.

What does this have to do with Match and Fable’s latest role?
Nothing. Nothing at all, really.

THE ‘JOCKEY NOT THE HORSE’ ROLE

Posted on by Head Hunter Krpan in SALES ROLES

thejockeynotthehorse

You’ve heard the adage many times … (or maybe you’ve never heard it at all). But, when it comes to the recruitment industry … it couldn’t ring more true – always “bet the jockey, not the horse”!

At Match and Fable, we’re big believers that when it comes to the recruitment … clients value an excellent headhunter far more than they care what agency that headhunter happens to work for.

We also believe that in today’s day and age … an excellent headhunter deserves the lion’s share of the commission they work so hard to earn.

We also think headhunters should be able to ‘do their thing’ wherever they chose to do it.

What does this have to do with Match and Fable’s latest role?
Well, everything … because the role is with us!

POSITION:                    HEADHUNTER
REPORTS TO:               MARK KRPAN
LOCATION:                   YOUR PLACE (WHEREVER THAT MAY BE)

SUMMARY:     

Match and Fable takes great pride in being the “anti-recruiter, recruiter”. Our clients choose us because we deliver consistent results … and a great experience. Ultimately … we make our clients happy!

And … unlike the hordes of recruiters hiding behind laptops, blasting out mass emails to hundreds of random candidates and praying somebody ‘bites’ … we pick up the phone (with urgency) … and we headhunt!

Business is booming … and we’re looking for strong talent to join our team.

If you’re a headhunter who knows what you’re doing and think its time to earn what you’re worth … this is your chance.

That said … none of us were headhunters before we became headhunters, so … if you think you have what it takes to be a headhunter … we’re willing to listen. And … if you’ve got ‘the jam’, we’ll show you the ropes!

RESPONSIBILITIES:

  • Securing Clients – just like all other professional firms, headhunters need to find clients to service. As such, business development and networking are critical components of this role.
  • Finding Talent – once they have mandates to fill … headhunters use a variety of techniques to find and assess candidates. These include personal networking, social media and Boolean search.
  • Navigating the Interview Process – this involves candidate screening and presentations, interview scheduling and multiple ‘circlebacks’ with client and candidates, alike.


REQUIREMENTS: 

  • MUST: Business development experience.
  • MUST: The ability to assess fit of candidates versus client requirements.
  • MUST: Expert level organizational and time management skills.
  • MUST: Supreme, professional urgency in everything you do … (we aren’t looking for a Lazy Larry).
  • MUST: Self-discipline (the ability to work from a home office and ‘get the job done’).

THE ‘JACKPOT’ ROLE (OTE: $90,000 – $105,000 USD)

Posted on by Head Hunter Krpan in SALES ROLES

Jackpot

Abraham Shakespeare was born in April 1966. The product of a troubled childhood … he dropped out of school after 7th grade … and spent the better part of the next 3 decades taking odd jobs as a laborer.

On November 15, 2006, on his way to Miami … Abraham and a co-worker named Michael Ford stopped at a convenience store in Frostproof, FL. Ford grabbed some cigarettes and a soda pop … and Abraham plunked down two of the five dollars he had in his pocket, for a few lottery tickets. The next morning, Abraham was holding the winning ticket to the Florida State Lottery … worth an astounding $30,000,000 dollars!

He bought a million-dollar home and a Rolex watch (albeit from a pawn shop) … and eased into the $17,000,000 dollars he’d chosen to receive as a lump sum option.

In October 2008, Shakespeare answered a call from a woman named Dee Dee Moore who explained she wanted to write a book about his life.

They ended up starting a business together and in short order, Dee Dee stole a million dollars. 14 months later … police unearthed Abraham’s body from under a freshly poured concrete slab at Dee Dee’s house.

What does this have to do with Match and Fable’s current role? Absolutely nothing.
That said … the role we’re working on could be a real jackpot for the right individual.

And … if you are a stellar sales person … we can virtually guarantee a fortune far better than that which befell poor Mr. Shakespeare!

THE ‘SNAKE OIL’ ROLE (OTE: $90,000 – $105,000 USD)

Posted on by Head Hunter Krpan in SALES ROLES

SnakeOil

In 1854 … Clark Stanley was born in Abilene, Texas. He claimed that after a decade as a cowboy, he spent two years studying under a Hopi medicine man in Arizona. During his “apprenticeship”, Stanley claimed he was introduced to the unique, medicinal properties of snake oil.

Stanley soon began peddling his own version of Snake Oil Liniment at medicine shows across the Southwestern USA. A consummate showman … Stanley would stand before a gathered crowd … kill a few snakes and mix his potion. The mesmerized onlookers would inevitably open their wallets … paying 50 cents per bottle (equal to $15 in 2018).

He claimed his cure-all treated a laundry list of afflictions … from headaches to arthritis … to sciatica!
The “Rattlesnake King” eventually established production facilities in Massachusetts and Rhode Island.

Short story shorter … in 1917 federal investigators seized a shipment of Stanley’s potion and determined it contained mineral oil, a fatty oil (likely beef fat), red pepper and turpentine … and not a single drop of snake oil!

Stanley was fined $20 for “misbranding” his product as a pain remedy and effectively disappeared from the public eye.

What does this have to do with our current role? Absolutely nothing.

In fact, my client’s offering is the antithesis of “snake oil”. Their solution is the essence of cutting edge … expertly unifying security solutions with the latest in modern technology.
