I got an Apple watch from my hubby, and I returned it. That’s another blog post. But while standing at the Apple store waiting for someone to help me, I became mesmerized by the buzz within the store.The products, the crowd, the happy smiles of their employees… and I couldn’t help but to wonder how all their employees ended up …
An interesting thing is happening right now… there are more employer brand jobs open now than ever. EVER. I haven’t seen anything like it in the past few years. It’s a good… actually, it’s a great time to be in the employer brand space. So what’s happening? Well, maybe six or seven years back, it seemed that everyone was getting …
I saw a post on FB the other week for the venerable Gerry Crispin that gave me the shivers because it hit way too close to home. He shared the experience a friend of his in a Fortune 50 company went through when an external candidate contacted them and requested to be “unsubscribed.” So what happened next? They… Manually deleted him from their …

Some things get lost in translation. Let’s talk about that. First – let’s get it out of the way. Who hasn’t seen the video Gangnam Style at this point? You are OFFICIALLY LIVING UNDER A ROCK if you haven’t. It’s hit over 221 million views on YouTube. It is the biggest song in the world right now. Watch it if …
A few years ago I wrote a blog post on measuring ROI and metrics for social recruiting. Just for kicks, I went back to look at the list based on recent ongoing in-the-office discussions I’ve been having with my team on what we’re trying to measure and why for the work we do. Here’s what I was saying back in …
