We know that in many sectors, talent is hard to find. And that is only likely to get worse in an era of sustained skill-shortages. Yet most recruitment companies still focus all their energy, and their KPIs, on job-order metrics. Now, let me be clear on this. I LOVE KPIs. I believe you can’t manage […].

When it comes to hiring a designer, work samples speak louder than resumes. You don’t just want a candidate to tell you what they can do - you want them to show you what they’re capable of producing. A resume often isn’t indicative of a creative candidate’s potential job performance, and it could be a mistake to ask for one as the first step of your designer recruitment process.

When skilled employees leave a company, the entire operation suffers. Generally, this is due to poor management. Although managers may complain that great people keep leaving their team, they usually don’t try to change how they treat employees, either. In most cases, people don’t leave a company because they’re bored or seeking a promotion elsewhere, but because their managers aren’t doing an adequate job of performance coaching.

“Hi boss. I can’t come into work today. I ate too much at a party and need a day to digest.” Sounds like something from a comedy movie right? But it is, in fact, an actual excuse given by an actual person for having to take a day off work! And the madness doesn’t stop there! These are the 36 most ridiculous, ludicrous, far-fetched and downright stupid excuses employees have given their bosses for having to take a day off or for showing up late.

I like to think I am a solid communicator, and it’s true I can write a pithy paragraph, and contrive a sound argument. I can communicate ideas from a stage, or in a one-on-one, as well as most, I suppose. But communicating is listening too right? In fact, surely ‘understanding’ is the foundation of it all? […].

The job interview can be a nerve-wrecking process for everyone involved. You want to make sure you’re asking questions that will best expose an accurate representation of the candidate’s personality, experience, and attitude. Although, it’s hard to predict how well a candidate will perform when the interview itself is something they’re desperate to ace. .

Raise your hand if you’ve ever had a less than positive experience with a recruiter. While I can’t see your raised hands, I can imagine that most of our hands are raised — I know mine is.

We’ve all heard the sayings about teamwork before: “there’s no “I” in team” or “a chain (team) is only as strong as its weakest link.” If you haven't heard these sayings, just watch any Disney sports movie and you're bound to hear it once or twice. These type of saying are typically applied to sports, however they can—and should—be applied to any type of group of people working together.

It seems to me that interviewing skills are all over the table. Sometimes I hear that candidates “don’t interview well,” and I’m sure that’s true. However, I’ve also been through some interviews where it could be fairly said that the INTERVIEWER didn’t interview well either! Since interviews are such a critical component of the hiring process, everyone could stand to improve their interviewing skills – candidates, clients, and recruiters alike.
