NOVATO, Calif. (March 15, 2011) -- Most executives have some contact with executive recruiters, but they really don't know how to leverage those relationships to their advantage.

In the next Experts Connection (http://www.experts-connection.com/business.aspx) webinar, executive recruiter and certified social media strategist Nicola James will host a session on “Working Effectively with Retained Recruiters NOW In a Tight Job Market Complicated by Social Media.” The webinar is scheduled for Wednesday, March 28, from 4:00 to 5:30 ET (1:00 to 2:30 PT) and is sponsored by NETSHARE® (http://www.netshare.com).
