Who has got it right? The Futurologist or The Man who is never wrong?

Following on from TruLondon I have a couple more short videos for you. The first is from a Recruiting Futurologist called Matt Alder the author of a thought provoking blog. Now, being a futurologist, you would think he might know where social media might be in recruitment in two years time? Well judge for yourself, but it seems like he has been to a political PR training course – how to answer a question by asking a question, and then not answering the initial question!!
Anyway, see what the newly self-titled Strategic People Connector – you see, Matt has the vision to know where job titles are going in the future, hence his new job title!!

The second video, also recorded at TruLondon, is with Peter Gold, one of the UK’s true experts in online and social recruiting. For those of you who don’t know Peter, he is the one who believes he is a legend in his own lifetime …..no seriously……he does…….he is never wrong about anything he says!! 🙂
He has, just written a superb book called The Corporate Recruiting Handbook, which is an absolute must if you are a corporate recruiter.

See how Peter answers my question to him, “Where will social media be in recruitment in two years time?”

The question is, (which of course you need to answer in the comments below) is, who is right out of Peter and Matt? 

Are either right? Are both right? Are both wrong? You decide!!  Feel free to give an opinion!!
