b'My guest today is, Perry Monaco. First off, I want to say that Perry obviously knows a good thing when he hears it, as he was one of The Accidental Occupations\\u2019 very first \\u201cfollowers\\u201d!

I appreciate that, but he also one of those guys I love to hate. Why? He\\u2019s one of those guys that looks like he just came off of 6 months on the Appalachian Trail, walked directly on stage to an audience of 1000\\u2019s wearing Chuck Taylor\\u2019s and a t-shirt, and yet still gets taken seriously. You know, that \\u201ceccentric genius\\u201d look.

In many of his speaking engagements, you\\u2019ll hear him talk about making a first impression and trust me\\u2026he makes a FIRST IMPRESSION, but in less than a few seconds you forget about his controversial corporate veneer and you start to listen to the passionate professional that he is.

While Perry hasn\\u2019t functionally recruited for a client (internal or external) for years, Talent Acquisition in oh so many different forms, is all Perry does. Educator, evangelist, mentor, leader\\u2026it\\u2019s all about the talent\\u2026how to either become the talent and/or attract it.

What I\\u2019m trying to say is, that Perry is a lot of things and I told you what I love to hate about him, but the genuine, fun, knowledgeable, gracious, self-deprecating and sincere story teller that he is, is what I love to love about Perry Monaco.'
