No, we're not suggesting that the industry needs another committee. although they are great places to exchange business cards, polish resumes and interview your next boss in your next company, committees usually waste everyone's time without ever solviong the fundamental problem. A close look at the HRXML consortium and its near perfect miss of the implications of XML ought to prove the point. There is real work and scholarship involved and little need for brokered solutions. 

The industry needs real research and a core curriculum.

The reason that there is nothing in the way of a career path for a great recruiter boils down to a failure of the existing "professional" organizations to provide a structured review of the industry's practices. Even small professional groups take this chore on as a part of their charter. The potential for real value optimization within the disciplines of Human Capital Management exists today. We need it now.
