This is mostly an angry rant, pretty amusing to me how upset the author actually becomes at times, I think its quite harsh.
I did like this idea towards the end of it:
"To employers – ask your staff to help find new hires. Offer a bounty – enough to get their attention, say a fortnight’s salary. It’s a lot less than [a recruiter] would cost. And their incentives are all positive: no-one will hire an idiot if they have to work alongside them and new staff with social ties to your team are far more likely to stay. You’ll be amazed how effective this can be."
