  • Publication number: 20110137816
    Abstract: In a recruitment context, it can be difficult to determine the best third-party recruiter to help fill an open job. The disclosed system includes a recommendation engine that determines the best recruiter to help fill an open job, either for another recruiter to collaborate in a split-fee placement or for an employer having the opening. For a given candidate or job opening that becomes available and that is represented by a given user, the system analyzes disparate work information from users' transactional systems, including various criteria about their past transactions (job placements, geography, timeliness, etc.) and their current candidates to produce a recommendation. The user representing the subject candidate or job opening may then be notified of potential other users, and connected with them through an online system, in order to complete a collaborative placement.

  • Patent number: 5354221
    Abstract: A releasable cathode ray tube connector assembly exhibiting enhanced dielectric standoff for its high-voltage contacts, even at high altitudes where voltage breakdowns frequently can occur. A substantially rigid dielectric sleeve encircles a base portion of a high-voltage contact projecting from the cathode ray tube stem, and a resilient sleeve carried in a cylindrical recess of a mating plug assembly is sized to slide over this rigid sleeve and substantially fill the annular space surrounding the rigid sleeve. An enhanced voltage seal is thereby provided.
