Spark Hire
MARCH 29, 2016
Job seekers are getting creative with their resumes. They know that many hiring managers only glance at a resume before deciding if the applicant is right for the job or not. In fact, a 2014 SHRM survey found that most hiring managers spend less than five minutes reviewing each resume. So in order to get noticed it’s becoming common for talent to include eye catching elements like charts or graphs in their resumes.

If you think you’ve heard it all, you’re either a therapist or a recruiter. (Of Of course, sometimes people treat their recruiters and HR people in general like therapists, but that’s another post.) The thing is, when much of your job is spent evaluating people and talking with them, you learn to spot lies pretty darn quick. Some of these lies are little things, and don’t matter. “How are you today?” ” “Great!”

Employers should already be planning for compliance—are you? Posted by Lisa Disselkamp on March 31, 2016. The Department of Labor (DOL) has proposed changes to the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) 1 that will dramatically increase the number of employees who must be paid on an hourly basis. If the regulations are finalized in the summer of 2016 as expected, employers will have 60–90 days to comply.

Written by: Reggie Wilson. The title rings true for just about all aspects of life, and certainly in the business world. I have had the opportunity to witness a significant evolution in two high profile corporate functions that have always been “joined at the hip”………….sales sales and purchasing. The selling process has dramatically changed from even a decade ago with the emergence and wide adoption of the Challenger Model, a greater focus on relationship selling.

On September 12, 2008, a commuter train in Los Angeles collided with a freight train head on, with 25 people left dead in the aftermath. The conductor was allegedly text messaging, missing a signal. On July 6, 2013, a train car containing crude oil in Lac Megantic, Canada rolled backward downhill, derailed, and killed 47 people in the ensuing inferno. The cause was that the conductor didn’t put on an additional hand brake. On May 12, 2015, a commuter train in Pennsylvania derailed killing 8.

Since the mid-1990s, the phrase, “HR transformation,” has been a part of HR’s common vernacular. In fact, it is so often-used some regard it as almost a form of HR “smart talk” – something that many talk about, but few really understand how to do. The same could be said – most recently – for the terms, “workforce analytics,” “talent analytics,” and other variants of this.

Happy and healthy employees are the backbone of a great organization. As leaders are looking to improve their workplace, it’s important to have employee mental health be part of the conversation. How employees feel directly impacts their contribution in the workplace. A negative work environment is not only bad for employee morale, it’ll will cost you financially.

It seems like such a simple question. Do you know why the organization hired you? One of my former bosses took me out to lunch one day to tell me why she hired me. She said, “Because you didn’t come from the industry.” She wanted an outsider who would ask questions and challenge the status quo. She felt that was what the company needed. If organizations want employees to be engaged and successful in their roles, they have to tell them why they were hired. Not what they were hired to do.

There is no one perfect way to lead. There are leaders that excel because of their impeccable communication skills, their charisma or even the respect their presence demands. But when your leadership techniques aren’t working time and time again, what are you supposed to do? Switch it up. Try new approaches. Fact: No one’s right 100% of the time and if you really truly think you are then working in leadership is likely not the place for you. How do you switch up the way you lead, though?

When we were first pitching Pomello to investors, one of the most frequent criticisms we heard was that a great company culture is nice to have, not need to have. Here was the parting line they would leave us with as they told us they weren’t going to invest. “You guys are vitamins, not aspirin.” ” What kept us going after investors kept telling us no is that companies were telling us yes.

The 2016 report was just released, and interestingly, executives were asked about culture and engagement separately this year (though both rank as top trends).

For HR and business leaders, employees are customers. This means that analyzing and improving each stage of employees’ journey within the company is crucial. Creating a fulfilling place to work is a major part of any employer’s job. You don’t do this out of a sense of altruism but because it is the best thing for the value of your company. Happy and engaged employees onboard more quickly, are more productive, stay longer, and continue to spread goodwill after they leave.

Change is a routine part of life. Organizations that do not adapt to the world and the changing economic environment will die. In this milieu, change management—the process of implementing and coping with changes such as new corporate policies, changes in the marketplace, and new leadership—is an essential skill, but one that many lack. In fact, according to Gallup, more than 70 percent of new initiatives implemented by organizations fail. The Challenge of Change.

Last week I had the chance to speak with a local HR leader. She was lamenting her company’s hideously awful HR module that was an add-on to the company accounting software. The firm paid plenty of money for the module, but it is ineffective, inefficient, and virtually useless. It looks like it was coded/developed in 1993, if that tells you anything.

Multi-rater or 360 reviews gather feedback from multiple sources. Those sources include the employee, manager, co-workers, staff members, and sometimes customers. The idea being that these individuals will provide insights and their collective comments will provide greater feedback for the recipient. Some examples include: In a traditional performance review from the manager, that’s one person’s point of view. Sometimes an employee will reject the feedback because it comes from just one person.

One of the things I love about working from home is lunch. I get to step away from my desk, even for a few moments and relax. I also like making salads for lunch and it’s so much easier to do when I’m at home. I actually feel like I’m splurging. When I go to a client site, I’ll often bring my lunch because it’s better for me than fast food. But do I pack a salad? Rarely. But during this year’s HR West conference I got the best piece of swag that might just change that. It’s a salad container.
