Connect- the definition

This morning I went on Webster's to look up the definition of connect, there were 13 different results. The following are the ones I found most interesting.


1. to join, link, or fasten together; unite or bind: to connect the two cities by a bridge;
2. to establish communication between; put in communication:
3. to become connected; join or unite: These two parts connect at the sides.
4. Informal. to relate to or be in harmony with another person, one's work, etc.: .

Connect the people debut

This being my first entree in to blogging, I will need to play around a little bit with my format and content.

I love connecting people together. It has always been one of my favorite things to do. When I meet someone new I like to figure out if we have anyone in common. Or if I am speaking to 2 different people I try to see if they have anyone in common. So when I was trying to think of a name for my blog-"Connect the People" seemed a natural name.

I am in the business of connecting people. I am a recruiter in the fashion industry. I love to find a person with a great skill set that fits a position our agency is working on. Once they have their initial connection (interview) if the chemistry is there they go on to the next meeting. When the candidate is placed in the position at our client's company, we have made a connect the people transaction.

More to come....

any ideas?
