It sounds like resumes maybe a secondary thing to get a job.  The article describes how research at looking at how people play a custom game to figure out if you should get the job or not.  Kind-of scary. http://www.csmonitor.com/Innovation/Tech/2014/0401/How-to-land-a-job-in-an-era-of-big-data

Not not only is the state going after Xerox for the bungled Health care sign-up, but the insurance providers are threatening to toss Xerox too. http://www.8newsnow.com/story/25095601/insurance-provider-threatens-to-leave-exchange-over-website-problems

Xerox has a new President of Business Services coming in, Robert Zapfel from IBM.  Has a pretty long career at IBM, I wonder why he left.  The other interesting bit was his involvement in turning IBM around in services.  Also … Continue reading →

Nevada doesn’t seem to let the heat off Xerox over the healthcare mess its in. http://vegasseven.com/2014/03/22/three-questions-broken-nevadas-health-insurance-exchange/  

I read this article twice, and it reads to me more like a press release from the “office of Ursula Burns” than a journalist article.  I wonder it that was the case here. http://tech.fortune.cnn.com/2014/03/24/backstage-with-xerox-ceo-ursula-burns/

Now I see where yesterday’s marketing article from Xerox is about.  Its more about “games” to teach call center folks to do their job. http://www.menafn.com/efe96e74-a7ed-4fe5-a5f4-71070fcb1366/Xerox-Scientists-Use-Avatars-Games-to-Improve-Customer-Service?src=main  

Interesting article that basically says if you make a game out of something, the employees are happier about it.  I wonder if Xerox does this with their own employees. http://www.cruxialcio.com/companies-turn-gamification-keep-employees-happy-healthy-5517

The true hurts they say.  The author brings up alot of good points, Xerox hasn’t really moved in the 5+ years Ursula Burns has been running it (at $13 mill a year paycheck).  Perhaps they should find someone else. http://247wallst.com/investing/2014/03/20/time-for-xerox-board-to-fire-ceo-burns/
