CareerOne a bit confuzzled?
On the subject of jobs, have a look at this: Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs shows that “sustainability of identity” is number one on our list of life requirements. Self preservation over self determination. Knowing that we continue to exist is incredibly important to us. Amusing. Why? Because we rarely change jobs within 18 months. So…

Amusing. Why? Because we rarely change jobs within 18 months. So by deleting unused accounts around the 18 month mark, CareerOne loses all that lovely marketing information. The long tail of subscribers getting jobs, losing jobs, moving into other jobs. Careerone could be our life’s work history online. The marketing data would be rich and mine-able.
Instead it’s a temporary search site to be used and thrown away once we have a job. How silly.
To say nothing of those who are using services such as email jobs to post up links from their own blog back to CareerOne site. Why do we need to log in? Because CareerOne aren’t tracking peer-to-peer discussions, that’s why.

CareerOne deleting user accounts after 18 months of inactivity. Most people don’t change jobs within 18 months. http://bit.ly/F6B1E
I just love how the employers using that site choose to list Account Manager as a creative role =).
Sorry to be pedantic, but didn’t Maslow rate physiological needs as number one… and safety as number two? Self-actualisation comes last from memory.
Sustainability of identity – isn’t that the ability to eat, breathe, sleep, excrete? that’s number one. Though I guess deleting an account could also be number two, the ability to feel safe at home and in the neighbourhood. Anyway, I’m claiming jetlag and a genetic inability to count… 😛
Pedantic but an interesting question. heh.
BTW compare this approach by CareerOne (deleting accounts after 18months) to social recruitment e.g. Rentacoder or Guru.com where the profile/portfolio becomes the trust/reputation identity online, accumulating over the years.
Which one is the way forward, hmm, David?
How useful is old data anyway? What benefits would it offer careerone?
Excellent YouTube post ! thanks for sharing. I’ll be adding your blog to my reader.

I am counting the days that careerone and seek will still be around, while linkedin is growing fast in job search areas and companies are more interested in it due to its visibility. Seek is heavily investing on training, may be it knows it has to change its business direction.
