alexskopje/123RF.com. Who makes the best nurses –men or women? How about Asian-Americans? African-Americans? For most people, just asking the question is offensive because the best nurses are those who are well-qualified, compassionate and love what they do – and that has nothing to do with gender, race or nationality. While that shouldn’t have to be said, somebody needs to explain it to staffing agency Interim Healthcare, a national healthcare franchise company which has come under fire f

Hunting for a job isn’t easy and candidates are very frustrated with the process. Candidates that are in the large percentile that don’t get picked by the Applicant Tracking System are naturally more inclined to hate on the ATS. But sometimes, despite their need for a job, they just weren’t qualified or didn’t fit the company’s needs. Just the same, there are those in the HR and recruiting space who loathe the automation of the ATS.

I’ve been in HR and Talent Acquisition for 22 years. The first job I had was working for a staffing firm recruiting technical professionals, so I thought it was completely normal being hated. I grew up thinking being hated in HR was just what it was. We were that one function in the company that wasn’t liked because of what we had to do, namely terminating people.

Before we get down to answering that question, allow us first to take a moment to go over some basics. What exactly does the acronym ‘ATS’ mean? Sure, you can easily rattle off the textbook answer: Applicant Tracking System. Why should we even be concerned with such an obvious question?

What is the most pivotal work your company does? Breakthrough innovation? High-profile clients? Big-picture strategy? Patent protection? Typically, such work requires skills that are both unique and valuable. Common wisdom — and some human capital theory — holds that organizations should always engage unique and pivotal talent by hiring regular full-time employees, so they are both readily available and protected from competitors.

As always, this year’s HR Technology Conference and Expo was a huge success. Great conversations in the expo hall, knowledgeable speakers, and a fun venue…what more can you ask for?! I wanted to share with you a few quick shots about my trip. I have to start with my airplane reading. Sean Glaze sent me his book, “ Rapid Teamwork.” The book immediately grabbed my attention because the story includes the central characters going on a whitewater rafting trip, which I love because I’ve actually done
