I recently ran across this: Global Staffing Trends 2017: The State of the Recruitment Industry. This little report from LinkedIn would be easy to dismiss, but I encourage you to take a look. It’s written for search/staffing firms. Not for corporate or in-house talent acquisition folks. So unless you’re a third-party staffing firm, not so interesting, right? Well, I’d encourage you to take a look.

Professional development guru and philanthropist Paul J. Meyer once said, “Communication—the human connection—is the key to personal and career success." As the tools that make up this “key" have evolved, businesses have invested time and money in staying on top of popular trends like text, mobile apps and social media. But these trends aren't only for communication with customers. This same evolution in communication can be used to improve relationships with employees.

The current trend is for companies to build in-house departments staffed with data scientists to do advanced analytics. However, this is probably only an option for large, sophisticated firms. Luckily an option is emerging which we might call “analytics-as-a-service,” where vendors and consultants provide analytics horsepower on demand. Click To Tweet.

You’ve heard of this concept of the Inverted-U Curve, right? It’s fairly straightforward. In the beginning, you have nothing or very little. As you increase the resources you begin to become more effective. Eventually, as you add more resources you’ll actually reach maximum potential. In the attempt to go even higher, you keep adding more resources, but you don’t see an increase in effectiveness or output, you actually see a decrease.

A reader writes: I have a question about how much value is placed on years of service vs. actual job duties. I started at my current job 10 years ago, under a coworker who had already been there 20 years. Initially, he was my manager, but as I took on additional responsibilities over the years I was promoted a few times and we are now at equal levels, performing similar (and overlapping) duties and reporting to the same boss. Our job titles are the same.

The biggest concern organizations have when they invest in training is retention. By this, I mean having employees retain the material once they leave the class. No company wants to create a program and take employees out of the operation only to have the same issues occur repeatedly. It’s important for training programs to be designed and delivered in a way that increases retention of the content. So how do we do that?

Every year, human resource professionals distribute the dreaded employee satisfaction survey. Oftentimes, it's the same questionnaire emailed through SurveyMonkey, year after year. But HR workers should scrutinize their surveys, improving questions to make the ordeal worth everyone's while. Usually, employees worry that their tell-all responses will be read by the boss, so they share a sanitized version of the truth.

You may be familiar with the 4 C’s of diamonds – cut, color, clarity and carat. These are four variables that combine to evaluate and communicate the quality of diamonds. Quality has many facets (if you’ll forgive the pun), all of which must be considered to ensure you are getting the characteristics you desire in a stone. The same can be said of quality of hire. There are many elements that go into understanding quality when it comes to talent acquisition.

December 1: It’s a date that seems to welcome in the holiday spirit in addition to indicating how close we are to the end of the year. But it’s also a huge day for employers nationwide as the Department of Labor’s “final rule” goes into effect updating overtime regulations. The rule effectively doubles the minimum weekly salary threshold under which salaried employees become eligible for overtime when their work week exceeds 40 hours.

In Simon Sinek’s Ted Talk entitled, How Great Leaders Inspire Action , Sinek refocuses companies away from thinking first about what they do, and instead advises them to figure out WHY they’re doing it. This not only impacts their services and products, but also the people who build out and fulfill the company vision. No matter how great your vision, the world will always be pulling your company away from fulfilling your higher purpose.
