I believe one of the key metrics in recruiting is time to fill. It’s also a very flexible metric. Traditionally, we think of time to fill as the time it takes from the job requisition being approved to the job offer being accepted. If the requisition is approved on April 1 and the job offer is accepted on April 29, then time to fill for that one job is 29 days.

Editor's Note: Today's post comes to us courtesy of guest contributor Chris Dobyns. All the money in the world. An exciting and evocative phrase. Turns out that amount (of money) is something that is actually quantifiable and, depending on what you consider to be either physical money or assets easily converted into money, estimates range from 5 trillion to around 80 trillion dollars.

Does your internal company culture impact your external brand? Yes. Think about company culture as your organization’s identity to the world outside the four walls of your office. Every interaction your employees have with customers, suppliers, even friends and family impacts how your company is perceived. When your company seeks to create one image, but doesn’t live up to it, your brand will be perceived as inauthentic.

The 2015 tax year brought much added paperwork in the way of forms and letters for the everyday taxpayer. For most, this is the first year that they’re receiving some of these documents, and the information contained within them may be confusing.

I took the day off, yesterday. My brain is mushy from writing white papers on HR, and I needed a break from the internet. So I went to the North Carolina Museum of Art. It’s not too far from my house. There’s a beautiful running path that crisscrosses through the campus. The greenway is full of sculptures and interactive art. I don’t know where you live, but springtime in Raleigh is warm and humid.

One of the lauded myths of Silicon Valley culture is that anyone can be a tech superstar if they have the talent. That if you just work hard enough, you too can grow up to be a lauded developer. Take game publisher and former Microsoft developer Alex St. John , who in many ways is a typical example of the kind of talent that thrived in the coding frenzy of the late '90s.

Disclosure: This post contains a quote and link to one of my clients, TinyPulse. If you feel like you’re in a rut at work, you aren’t alone. A recent Gallup poll found that 67 percent of workers aren’t engaged—or worse, they’re actively disengaged—a number that’s been pretty stagnant for the past 16 years. Somehow, despite the best of intentions, corporate culture has taken a misstep.

Spring is the kind of season that floods the senses – in a good way.

Soon, they reap the rewards of their efforts, with the colorful and fragrant blooming of azaleas, forsythias, herbs and assorted veggies.

According to the State of the American Workplace, a 2013 Gallup study, seven out of 10 workers in the US say they aren’t fully engaged at work, meaning they aren’t working to their fullest potential. The resulting loss of productivity can cost companies between $450-$500 billion a year. (Click to tweet this!)
