看看SHOPIFY 的 RECRUITERS 吧
Shopify recruiters ‘pop up’ at downsizing IBM office
http://www.obj.ca/Technology/2013-06-12/article-3275874/Shopify-recruiters-&lsquopop-up&rsquo-at-downsizing-IBM-office/1
Recruiters Doug Tetzner and Anna Lambert from the local e-commerce platform provider headed to IBM’s office on Riverside Drive mid-morning to set up and staff a pop-up recruitment booth on the sidewalk in front of the building.
The booth was fitted up with bright green sunglasses and business cards pointing potential employees to Shopify’s careers page online.
Although it remains unclear how many local IBM workers lost their jobs, Mr. Tetzner said he spoke with about 10 to 15 people who were among those laid off.
“Multiple people came out to say, ‘Thanks for doing this, I was laid off today,’” he said. “It was received really well.”
About 50 people stopped by Shopify’s impromptu booth to hear about the local firm’s plans to hire about 80 people by the end of 2013.
Shopify recently hired three former IBM employees, and they’re “fantastic,” Mr. Tetzner said.
Although the recruiters received some disapproving looks and were asked to move further away from IBM’s property, the recruiters said the trip was a success.
And regardless of whether Shopify hires any additional ex-IBM staff, the booth had another unforeseen positive result.
“If you’ve just been laid off, even if you’re not interested in Shopify, just to know there are companies in Ottawa looking to hire – it’s a really positive message for people,” Mr. Tetzner said.
“It’s a doom and gloom thing when you’re laid off, but this lets you know that there are other opportunities out there.”
Mr. Tetzner said he hadn’t thought of this going in, but that a laid-off employee passed along this message to the recruiters at their booth.The two-person crew packed up to leave around 2:15 p.m.
When asked whether there could be a repeat performance following additional layoff announcements in town, Mr. Tetzner said it’s more than likely.
“I wouldn’t put it past us,” he said

一声叹息, 如果公司总部在加拿大.就不会在加拿大有这么大比例裁人.
本村高科技所有的不幸都是根源于Nortel的倒闭. 如果Nortel还健在, 其他公司的员工就不会象现在这样任人宰割.

IBM Ottawa employees were stunned today to learn the scope of a layoff which will affect about 200 workers at the Riverside campus.
CTV Ottawa reporter John Hua has been talking to employees who say the mood inside the campus is "gloomy". Employees told Hua that up to 20 per cent of the Ottawa staff have received layoff notices. Some have been employed with IBM/Cognos in the capital for more than 30 years.
IBM is one of Ottawa's largest private sector employers.
