paper: Recruitment poster ideas

[Conor Ryan]

Those are some great posters, but I do have a bit of a suggestion:

One of the major points of recruitment that I like to focus on (because it is often missed) is that you don't need to know what robotics is to become part of the team, all you need is motivation and the willingness to do what it needs to succede. Not everyone on a team actually builds or takes part in the design process, however, there are plenty of other jobs that a team has or can make that aren't directly related to the robot. The more jobs that you can find that don't deal directly with the robot, the larger your team will be, and it will probably increase your team performance and maybe even get you to the level where you can win chairmans. Remember that Chairman's is the highest honor and not the Einstein Champion, so in order to give yourself the best chance at Chairman's you have to start working at it with your recruitment.

So in doing that, maybe you want to say what kind of jobs your asking people to do on your team, and list them on your poster, and hopefully you'll get someone that you never expected to join the team to join up.

Have fun recruiting!
