Upon returning to his job at the bank after a break to train and participate in the 2012 Olympics, Jeremiah Brown, had a silver medal to show workmates. After his first Olympics appearance and managing to earn silver medal in the men’s eight rowing crew, he was understandably happy and genuinely…

Sourcecon Spring 2018 day 1 consisted of 2 presentations; Trust but Verify by Jim Schnyder and Brian Mork, and Tools for the Social Detective by me.

 In the first presentation Jim and Brian purpose the question who does it better a Sourcer or a Hacker. Now being both I found this interesting. Some of the sites, tools and methods talked about were;…

Hiring cycles in the oil and gas industry follow industry cycles of oil price. Downturns in 1986, 1998, 2008, and 2014 mean that there have been periods in the industry where oil and gas job recruitment was non-existent, and people left the industry in their thousands.

We are therefore looking at massive talent gaps of certain…

Updating the CV is one of the most important things that a candidate must…

Finding entry-level jobs is seemingly the most daunting activity for a fresh graduate. Armed with a degree, mostly theoretical knowledge and measured practical experience that in most real-life situations count for nothing. More to fret about if you took a gap year or more to explore other interests, now you feel like fish in fresh waters who's lingered in the shallow end for far too long. All the more reason to dive in the deep, dark and frightful waters quickly…

This week is #NoMore (March 4-10). Take the pledge and make a stand …

How to become a more successful recruiter is a major concern of today’s modern recruiters.

The war for talent is raging on, and recruiters are facing new challenges. Do you have what it takes to thrive in today’s highly-competitive recruiting…

When it comes to interviews this is one question you will more than likely be asked ‘why are you looking for a new job?’ or ‘ why did you leave your last job?’ and is definitely one that you should be well prepared for.

The particulars of this answer are to uncover why you left your previous position voluntarily or on…

Joanne McDonagh, blogger at Rezoomo, won First Place in the Talent Acquisition Category of Human Resources Today’s 2017 MVP Awards. Our judges and audience at HRT had hundreds of nominated articles to read through, so her article, 2018 Trends in Candidate Experience – What You Need To Know, really was the best of the best! Now that it’s been a few months since the conclusion of the awards, Shelley Trout, editor at Human Resources Today, has some questions for…

As a bootstrapping startup in the competitive space of job boards and recruitment, it’s hard to get noticed in a sea of established companies with recognised brand names and big budgets. We should know, we are the proverbial Jack Russell snapping at the heels of the Great Dane (but say ‘hello’, we don’t bite!).

Likewise, as a job seeker it is equally hard to get your CV seen by the right people and land your dream job. So how do you stand out from your fellow grads and the…

When you’re a young start-up, you need to maximize the aid of passionate, capable people while carefully managing your meager Series funding. Fractional work is a valuable tool that allows you to bring in in-depth experience and tested leadership into your company.…

Company culture is something that describes the company in the best way. It shows the qualities of an…

The sector of green technology serves two areas of development and implementation that require specific recruits. The practical application of the green technology sector is being followed by many businesses to support this new method of saving energy. It ranges from simple weatherising to energy saving lighting including a solar panel system. These projects are not DIY projects since; it requires firms with expertise to manage such tasks. With the availability of such works, specific…

When it comes to employer branding think of your business as a glasshouse, giving potential candidates a sneak peek at what is going on inside.

Recently I wrote about how recruitment is marketing and how the role of HR has significantly evolved over the years. The main ‘pain’ today in recruitment is attracting quality candidates and although this is a ‘pain’, is your company…

You check references to see what you can find out about a candidate that you are seriously considering. How hard do they work? Are they reliable? Skills, Character, History. What does their overall brand say about them?

If there are problems or red flags you are more likely to pass. If the brand is strong, a positive compelling story, you are more likely to hire.

The story is the same from the…

Building up the employer brand is a very tough task to do. It takes up a lot of hard work of the people to build up the brand, and maintaining that is essential as well. The interview is the first impression that the candidate has on the organization, and it is very important for the employer to make sure that it goes perfectly.

There are a few recruiters that make mistakes during the job interviews, that spoil the image of the employer brand in the…
