As many of you are aware, Stuart Scott, who was fired from his post as CIO of Microsoft earlier this month, began a new job as COO of mortgage lender Taylor, Bean & Whitaker on Monday of this week.

I've spent the last two days getting recruiters' takes on Scott's new job. Some think it's a good move. Others don't think the job or the move are all they're cracked up to be.
