Cramer-Krasselt Wants Monster.com

peter_krivkovich.jpg

In a Talent Zoo podcast interview, Cramer-Krasselt CEO Peter Krivkovich said, among other things including how illogical it was for CareerBuilder to dump the agency because its ads didn’t place in the top ten of the USA Today Super Bowl ad poll, now that he’s free of CareerBuilder he’d love to take on Monster.com. By all accounts, Cramer-Krasselt has catapulted CareerBuilder to stunning success even besting primary competitor Monster.com in some areas.

Oddly, CareerBuilder has been silent regarding its strange move and has offered no explanation for its sudden dumping of Cramer-Krasselt. Perhaps it’s too embarrassed to face the wrath of detractors who’ve maligned the company for it’s irrational decision. Perhaps we’ll find out later there’s some intriguing nepotism going on between CareerBuilder and the yet to be selected agency. Perhaps we’ll never hear anything until next year’s Super Bowl when the company, aided by some as yet unnamed agency, trots out another set of commercials. Perhaps no one will care and this will die like the controversy surrounding a certain Wal-Mart marketing executive whose name we no cannot remember.

I’m 66 and the person who shaped me most wasn’t my father or my mother, it was a history teacher named Mr. Collins who looked at me in 1976 and said “you’re capable of more than this”—and those six words rerouted my entire life because nobody at home had ever suggested that the direction I was heading wasn’t the only direction available, and I’ve built a career, a family, and a sense of self on a sentence spoken by a man I haven’t seen in 40 years

Research suggests the people who make others light up when they first meet them aren’t more charming than everyone else — they’re more curious, and curiosity turns out to be the most flattering thing one person can offer another because it says your existence is interesting, which is the thing almost everyone is waiting to hear and almost no one says
