Have you ever received a connect request on LinkedIn, a friendship request on Facebook, by someone that you don't know, but seems to be quite connected to some of your connections or friends? Welcome to social medineering.

It is not uncommon that I see job advertisements with specifically stated salary ranges. It is actually a good thing, as it allows potential and interested employees to know if they want to get a job with that amount, before they apply. It is also very common that recruiters ask for salary expectations during the introductory phone call; before the actual candidate evaluation. Obviously this is driven by the salary range that the hiring company has set to them and they want to minimize the time wasted in a candidate whose salary expectations are not within this range.
In 2009 I was invited to present at the 2nd Athens International Forum on Security. The conference that lasted two days, was organized by the Hellenic American Union and took place at the HAU Conference Center, in Athens.
