Workology

I used to think that recruiters were just the same as human resources professionals. I was wrong. I was in fact very wrong. Our jobs, although similar in terms of who we report to in the corporate organizational structure, are distinctly unique.

The Tim Sackett Project

I got invited to LinkedIn! Yeah, me, the guy who was blacklisted from LinkedIn because I tend to write stuff that isn’t so flattering about the organization.

So, what I’m about to say is what I can say without getting myself in trouble.

15Five

How well are you communicating your most important company information to employees? The answer has as much to do with the medium as with the message.

Being a Better Recruiter Isn’t About Being More Efficient, It’s About Being Different

Linkedin Talent Blog

I’m now working with a bunch of staffing professionals and corporate recruiters who (along with their employers) want to be more competitive. I suggested the best way to change is by becoming different, not by trying to be more efficient. Why is being different more important? Because it can result in improvements of 50-100% or more in 6-12 months. It’s almost impossible to be 10-20% more efficient in the same timeframe.

When we talk about wellness programs in the workplace environment, the type of keywords that should appear should be yoga classes, weight loss programs or even health screening check-ups.

My son recently turned eight years old, and because his birthday falls in July during the summer months, our family generally seizes this opportunity to throw a low-cost party in our backyard rather than laying down a small fortune for the latest laser tag / foam ball pit / inflatable bounce house venue.
