I have been in the video room all week and I’m exhausted, to say the least! But it’s all good. I was able to interview some amazing folks like Craig Fisher, Crystal Miller, Sue Salach and my friend and HR Blogger Melissa Fairman.
Oh, and check out my latest venture on Spreecast where I’ve hosted some really cool interviews chatting up #ILSHRM12.
Here’s the interview:
Sweet Melissa
While on the Twitter one day, I noticed a post from my pal Chris Fields that said something to the tune of “#FF @HRRemix and make a girl feel special.” So, because I totally respect my friend’s opinion and anyone that he says to #FF usually makes sense. That’s the way connections are made.
After connecting with Melissa and digging around a little over at her blog, engaging with her on the Twitter and connecting on Facebook, I asked her if she would write a guest post for the Cafe and wrote this post “Networking for a Job: Virtual or IRL?” and we have remained connected ever since.
Background
Melissa has worked in HR for over five years either as a TMS analyst, a generalist, recruiting and HR project work; just enough to make her dangerous! She currently works as a HR Generalist for a national company that sells and distributes insulation and other construction materials.
Oh, and she’s super smart and has an MBA with an HR concentration from Baldwin Wallace College and holds the PHRcertification from the HRCI institute.
Make this chick feel welcome and #FF. (Don’t forget to watch the video – you’ll find out a few more things I kept a secret)
Aloha, friends!
Connect with Melissa

I feel like I know you both so much better. Thanks for sharing.
