DOD:S Division Recruitment Meeting
• Quality over Quantity!!!
o Looking for the quality of new members not quantity.
o Great new people that will be active in edge gamers.
• Attitude
o Everyone has bad/good days but when recruiting you should have the most fantastical day in the world. (In the words of Lt. Nond)
o People like to be treated well. Say hello and be nice. It is contagious.
• Approach
o Personal Approach- Add them on steam and help them through the application process. Chat them up about anything and whatever it takes to get know them better. psay is a good way to talk to a potential recruit in the servers.
 Don’t want to turn away people but remember quality of the recruit. You’ll get to know them through the personal approach.
o All chat- Not the best way to recruit because it is too impersonal. You have to add the person and fast on steam and chat them up.
• Application Process
o A recruit is not actually a recruit until he/she is registered on the forums.
o Need basic knowledge on the application process
• When you get the recruit

I have audio from the session as well. If you want that just PM me
 
Does this help make it more readable on the forums? I am aware the multiple lists don't format so great if you view this via TAPATALK, but on the web-based forums, it looks pretty good.

FYI: If you need any help with PSC stuff, I'm more than happy to help out as well. Technically I'm a CS PSC member but am available to help out my home-away-from-home, DoDs.
