De banner is een hulpmiddel voor ontdekbaarheid, maar het vervangt nooit de noodzaak van een sterk netwerk en proactieve outreach. Denk aan de banner als een felle neonreclame boven een kwaliteitsrestaurant; de reclame lokt je naar binnen, maar je blijft voor het eten.

Ik ben Pieter Doesburg, ik ben remote recruiter, generalist recruitment. Dit doe ik al acht jaar vanaf Las Palmas in Crancunaria in Europa en na een leuke opdracht van een jaar ben ik weer beschikbaar. Nu vraag ik me af of ik zo'n groen lintje op mijn foto moet plaatsen die zegt open to work, hashtag open to work. Of dat het beter is dat juist niet te doen om nog een soort van hard to get te spelen. Ben ik al zo desperate dat ik het nodig heb en gelijk aangeef? Output in Nederlands.
