 <title>Education or Experience: Which is Most Important?</title>
 <link>http://www.fastcompany.com/blog/chad-hayward/effective-recruitment-and-selection/education-or-experience-which-most-important</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;Lisa Waslis Asks:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;	I&#039;ve found that many of today&#039;s companies will not entertain the idea of an&lt;br /&gt;
	employee who does not have a college degree. In many cases, they will not even&lt;br /&gt;
	let you apply without one. Is this really the norm or are companies beginning to&lt;br /&gt;
	look at experience more? Which do you value more - college degree or several&lt;br /&gt;
	years experience?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Hi Lisa,&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Have women broken the glass ceiling?</title>
 <link>http://www.fastcompany.com/blog/alexandra-zendrian/cut-different-mold/have-women-broken-glass-ceiling</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;A recent survey entitled Workplace Insights, showed that while almost all American workers believe that women have made important strides in business over the past ten years, 86 percent surveyed still felt the glass ceiling was very much present. &lt;/p&gt;

 <title>How to Attract Hundreds of Qualified Applicants</title>
 <link>http://www.fastcompany.com/blog/chad-hayward/effective-recruitment-and-selection/how-attract-hundreds-qualified-applicants</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;If you are similar to most of the hiring managers who we surveyed in 2007, you no doubt have a significant problem attracting qualified applicants. &lt;/strong&gt;No matter what you do, the number of applicants applying to your postings seems to be decreasing, the resumes seem to be less and less impressive, and the looming talent shortage is becoming more of a concern every day.&lt;/p&gt;
