One question every recruiter faces is: “How long will it take to fill this position?” Seasoned recruiters have had long practice in figuring out how to deflect this question by speaking of the tough hiring market, sharing insight on the current candidate pool, or turning the question back to validate just how important timeliness really is for a specific hire.

There’s a common thought and saying that some things can’t be done alone. We all need help and most of the time we’re too shy to ask for it. Either that or we’re too arrogant and reluctant to ask. The thing is, when we do ask for help and we receive the right type of help, we usually thrive better than we expected if we were to complete the task alone.

Linium, a global staffing and recruiting firm, wanted to gain competitive edge by improving quality of hire for their clients.

Summer has officially ended in Canada. We’re warming up to our Pumpkin Spice lattes. We’re resurrecting last year’s plaid wardrobe. However, for some Canadians, it’s the end of our seasonal careers — or for some, the beginning of another. Seasonal employment is a staple for many workers in beautiful landscapes. Normally associated with agriculture or hospitality, this type of career structure offers a unique form of flexibility of the individual — but also com

Image courtesy of Flickr. In a previous life, I worked in for a home care agency. When I arrived, I was the low woman on the totem pole designated as the Personnel Coordinator/Recruiter. I remember being excited to leave the previous hellhole I was in and moving on to a much more sane environment – or so I thought. During my first few weeks, there were quite a few whispers of the headquarters wanting to shut down the location I worked at.

Staying on top of hiring trends isn’t easy. As much as the fundamentals of the industry remain the same, the tools, best practices, industry standards and technological innovations evolve at a mind-boggling rate. If you’re a recruiter with your head down working on tough to fill roles, tracking the industry as a whole can seem impossible or a waste of time.

Professional services firms face intense pressure to increase profit and productivity, with new client revenue declining to the lowest level in the past nine years, according to the 2016 Professional Services Maturity Benchmark study from SPI Research. It wasn’t always this way. During the industry’s heyday in the ‘90s, it wasn’t uncommon to see big-money service contracts being staffed by workers who didn’t have the skills and qualifications best suited for the project.

We talk a lot about how the workplace is changing. And how as a result, we need to manage employees differently, use newer technologies, etc. But what about employee benefits? For the past twenty years, the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) has been publishing an employee benefits survey. This year, they decided to compare the benefits of twenty years ago and today.

No matter how much we smile and nod at trendy headlines about work-life balance, the stink of overwork in the office is still familiar to all of us: the employee who stays past close of business to work til 8 PM; the coworker who sends detailed work emails at 9 PM on the weekend; and even worse, the never-ending “I worked an 80-hour week” water cooler conversation.

During this year’s WorkHuman Conference , hosted by Globoforce, I learned a new acronym – VUCA. It stands for volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity. Wikipedia says it was introduced by the U.S. Army in the 1990s. In recent years, it’s been used in strategic leadership conversations. Basically, it means the world is a little wild and crazy.

Recently I was interviewed by a good friend from SHRM’s Public Affairs team, Mary Kaylor. She asked me a few questions about the HR Technology Conference, and you can read it all here. What I want to expound upon here is the final question in the interview. I had to be succinct in my response to her but I think it’s worth a discussion. The question that spurred today’s discussion: As technology evolves, what do you think the future of HR will look like?

It’s that time of year — the 100-day dash between late summer and mid-Fall where employees and managers alike try to complete projects and connect with clients before the holiday season pulls everyone away from their desks. For many industries, the end of the year is a traditionally slow time. After summer vacation, we get into gear in the early fall months and naturally slow down our efforts as the year comes to a close.

The early stages of a relocation program are a lot like the first steps in a relocation. The first piece of information our Relocation Consultants ask for is where a person lives now, and where their destination city is. In the same way, you have to know where you’re starting from in order to get where you’re going.

This is a very interesting reader note. While it might sound unusual, I could see it happening. I had a complaint filed against me for inappropriate conduct. I received an email stating that HR wanted to meet with me about the situation. I was never told the details of the complaint. Then I got sick, and went on medical leave. HR continued with the investigation and found it inconclusive.
