It’s been a busy spring for the ExactHire team, but we managed to fit in 2 MondayFunday events. March featured a cut-throat Nerf shootout (sounds violent, but I can assure you it was not), and April saw us channel our calm, creative, contemplative sides as we painted and decoupaged (?) picture frames for the mothers in our lives. Two extremes, I know, but both activities helped us accomplish our planned objectives: We had fun!

I enjoyed this recent article from NZ recruiter Karl Harenburg reminding us of the importance of picking up the phone.

Modern Australia was built on immigrants. They came in clearly defined waves. The British. The Southern Europeans. The Asians. Many other countries are the same, and most pay homage to those immigrants now. I am an immigrant myself, arriving in Australia two weeks before my 21st Birthday. I am the son of an immigrant too.

Any staffing company serious about increasing their gross margin, understands that this can only be accomplished by producing more, higher-quality applicants, submittals and placements on as small a budget as possible. This of course makes performance-based advertising, such as the PPC model, a powerful tool in the efforts to accomplish this goal. However, even the PPC model can be further optimized to produce a greater ROI.
