A reader writes: I’ve been at my company eight years now and have seriously loved working here, working my way up to the manager of my location in that time. I am in my early 30s, and this is my first job with direct reports. Due to a variety of corporate-level decisions, my job has gotten harder to enjoy as my team has become more and more unhappy with the retail side of the company (pay, hours, staffing, etc.).

It’s hard to imagine that 2020 is officially halfway over. Compared to last year’s summer check-in , the economy couldn’t be more different today. In the midst of COVID-19 still consuming most of the health and economic narratives, the jobs market has been incredibly disrupted. In this Hireology State of Hiring, we take a look at the trends seen in the first half of the year, and how they will influence plans leading into 2021.

Paid time off (PTO) has been a strong hiring, recruiting, and retention tool for employers. It’s a win for employees favoring more flexibility in their lives. But like so many aspects of everyday life that COVID-19 has impacted, PTO policies may need adjusting to meet today’s reality. More employees are quarantined, working from home, and vacationing less.

As businesses reopen, there is both a need and an opportunity to rethink many healthcare workforce practices. Large and small, emergent and ambulatory, medical and dental organizations—every healthcare organization has changed. Some have been stretched and worn thin on the front lines. Others have been sidelined as elective procedures and appointments were postponed or canceled.

While it is becoming easier than ever to interact with your customers through cell phones and other electronic methods, customer service jobs are still relevant because these customer-facing positions maintain that personal touch that is necessary for a brand and its customers, regardless of how large or small they are. On that note, demands for representatives who can efficiently handle customer service jobs will continue to increase.

Not much seems like it will return to life before COVID-19, particularly where employees work. Some companies in states with declining infection rates have started to slowly return to on-premises work. Others are sticking to telecommuting and relying on remote work arrangements for now. But what many leaders of companies who were largely office-based have realized is: There are few tasks that actually have to be done in-office.

Back in March, when work-from-home policies became the new normal, I began planning all I would do during my free time. Without having to battle the terrible commuter traffic in the Bay Area, I figured I would have at least two extra hours each day to exercise or pursue a new hobby. Now, three months into this new world of work, I find myself working more than ever, quickly filling up those two “spare hours”—but also being more connected than ever.

Have you ever strolled into the office of your CFO and seen an office tchotke on their bookshelf spouting the phrase “I <heart> Accounting?” I haven’t. How many Supply Chain Managers do you see posting on LinkedIn/Twitter/Facebook something along the line of “I LOVE my job!!!!” along with heart emojis? Probably very few. Yet, I’m willing to wager, there’s an HR professional in your life who you have observed: wearing a t-shirt emblazoned with “You can’t spell HERO without HR!

In today’s complex healthcare environment, navigating third-party relationships has become even more challenging—whether it’s vendor relationships, employee activities, or patient-facing interactions.

A reader writes: I work for a small company (less than 25 staff). Like many companies, they slashed everyone’s salary by 30% at the beginning of this pandemic and laid off a few people. They’ve said that hopefully get things back to normal as soon as possible, and our pays would return to normal. A couple weeks into lockdown, during our company-wide weekly meeting, our owner mentioned they were working on getting a small business loan/financial assistance due to the pandemic.

HR professionals know that the interviewing process can be time-consuming and costly, and there’s always the risk that a candidate will accept an offer elsewhere.

It’s five answers to five questions. Here we go…. 1. We’re sending mixed messages to our laid-off employees. I work for a small nonprofit that had to lay off about half the team two weeks ago because of Covid. I am still employed, and while I serve on the leadership team and was consulted on how the process should be handled, the communication about the layoffs came from our executive director.

One of the biggest biases we have as leaders is ageism. If you’re 35 years old and running a department and you are looking to fill a position on your team that will be your righthand person, the last thing you’re looking for is a 55-year-old to fill that spot! That’s just me being real for a second. You and I both know that 35-year-old hiring manager is looking for a 25 – 28 year old to fill that spot.

We’ve all heard the famous Mark Twain quote: “Find a job you enjoy doing, and you will never have to work a day in your life.”. But we also all know that it’s easier said than done. A lot easier. Even the best jobs on earth have days or weeks that are a slog. Acknowledging this reality means embracing the fact that bringing enjoyment to all jobs is critical.

Employees rely on feedback in order to consistently improve their output. Many forms of collecting feedback exist and they typically involve communication from bosses to subordinates or upward feedback delivered by employees to their bosses. The 360 degree feedback system is different in that it relies on feedback from staff from all layers of the organisation; that is colleagues, bosses and subordinates as well as a self-assessment from the employee.

Instead, the aim is to focus on exploring what does a long-term commitment to remote work require. After all, what was first thought of as a temporary shift, now seems to be a somewhat permanent transition to a new normal.
