There’s been a lot written recently on “ghosting” from both the employer side and the candidate side. I’ve heard a bunch of noise that sounds like this, “Well it’s the employer’s fault! They started it! If they hadn’t started ghosting candidates from the start, candidates wouldn’t be ghosting them now!” Ugh. The blame game! We love blaming other people for …
My friend Tim Sackett tweeted this question out last week–what’s the Hotel Tonight of jobs? For the uninitiated, Hotel Tonight is another on-demand app. Similar to Uber but for hotels, it allows you to scan the area you are in or are traveling to in order to pick up a great deal on a hotel at the level you’re looking for–budget, …
Have you heard? For four straight months this year, the number of open jobs outnumbered the people out of work in the U.S. If you’re like most in the talent acquisition biz, you’re probably feeling the squeeze of this historically tight labor market. There are no signs that this trend will slow down soon, which is great news for workers …
I think it’s common belief that it’s always best to screen a candidate “live”, either in person or over the phone. We believe that the ‘immediate’ response is always best because it doesn’t give a candidate time to make up the ‘right’ answer, and you get a more true answer of what they really believe. That’s what we all think, …
So, I spoke at an SHRM state conference last week. Great group of folks and I talked quite a bit about recruiting technology. It was a room of about 300 HR and talent pros/leaders who were struggling with hiring talent for their organization. I asked them this question: “Raise your hand if you’re texting candidates to try and reach them.” …
So Christmas is a couple of days away, and I bet if you are actually reading this today it is only to provide a brief respite from your crazed last-minute preparations (if you are someone who celebrates the holiday) or your internal seething of having to be stuck at work picking up the slack for everyone else who has already …
I want to preface this post by sharing how much I love Chipotle, specifically their Barbacoa tacos. Spicy, shredded beef, seared, then slowly braised for hours in a blend of chipotle adobo, cumin, cloves, garlic and oregano… yep, that is definitely something this carnivore can get behind. So, while eating my Barbacoa tacos yesterday… I caught this post on mobile …
We love it at FOT when companies start talking about how they block specific types of websites to prevent employees from doing certain things. One of the types of sites companies love to block is career sites. “You’re not going to look for a job while you’re working.” You’re right, boss. We won’t look for a job on your laptop …
Confession time, I’m currently an iPhone 4s person and I feel inadequate. Not to worry though, that’s all about to change because I am due for an upgrade… I was just waiting for the next version of iPhone to be released, and like so many other sheep I’ll find myself following the line into the store to get the 5s. …
Riddle me this, does your company currently have a mobile recruiting strategy in place? A. Yes – rolling full steam ahead B. No – I didn’t think I needed one until today C. Sorta – It’s on our list, but we’re not sure how to get started D. I’m still not a believer in this whole mobile thing… If you …
