By Maren Hogan, Founder and CEO of Red Branch Media. Quality of Hire didn’t use to be a recruiting measurement. Far from it!

Terms like “cultural fit” were on the fringe and those who wanted recruiters to answer for retention, may potentially get an earful.

It’s a simple fact of life that HR Pros are sometimes tasked with recruiting and even sourcing. And while sometimes this additional responsibility can be overwhelming, sourcing incredible talent can be really fun. Sourcers get to do fun “detective” work that makes succession planning and compensation models look downright dull. And it’s not as hard or as geeky as you think.

Today marks my first day at a new company, and I have to say that I’m very excited about the weeks and months ahead. Two years ago I joined Brandon Hall Group as an analyst to see if that was the direction I wanted to go with my career. I’ve been doing an informal analyst “thing” here at upstartHR since 2009, and what I learned was the “formal” analyst role isn’t all that different from what I’ve done here.

Managers have a tough job. First, they have knowledge or skill in their area of expertise that the organization relies upon. And, they have a responsibility to engage employees. I would contend that the responsibility to engage extends beyond their direct reports. Managers are asked to set the example and create an engaging work environment with each employee interaction.

My twelve year old son loves to play the game Would You Rather with me. Have you played? You basically ask the person to choose between two things and sometimes, they give a reason. For example, he recently asked me, “Mom, would you rather be invisible, or have the ability to teleport?” As you can see, this is a question that may cause a gut reaction, but when you start thinking about it, you begin to come up with many reasons why one choice may be better than the other.
