Not long ago I wrote how ‘unique candidates’ are the future of successful recruiting. Indeed, recruiters talk a great deal about securing exclusive job orders (although few recruiters actually know how!) while we should really put equal focus on negotiating exclusivity with highly specialised, in-demand candidates. The rewards for doing so are juicy-sweet.

I’ve been trying to get in the habit of reading professional development-oriented books more regularly lately. Not surprisingly, The Power of Habit by Charles Duhigg caught my eye for that very reason. Of course, trying to lose that last 10 pounds might have initially fueled my interest in this book, too. Let me say that this book is TRANSFORMATIONAL.

HR Compliance is like a giant game of whack-a-mole. Once you think your company is compliant with all policies and procedures documented and in place, there’s a new or amended law, regulation, or final rule that pops up landing you back at ‘start.’ There are shifts, interpretations, and balancing acts to understanding compliance changes. Keeping up is not easy and it’s very time consuming.

We were fortunate last night to be able to host Ross Clennett here in Auckland for a short and snappy training event with some of our v.RPO on-demand recruiter community. Ross presented to our gathering about the increasing importance of soft skills in relation to workplace performance nowadays, and how to identify these skills in candidates. One of the points raised towards the end of the event particularly piqued my interest.

When things get tough, HR departments can be one of the first targets for downsizing. Unfortunately, it’s also usually one of the last departments to get new staff as companies grow. And while it might seem like a good idea to “downsource” certain HR tasks to line managers and other members of staff when budgets are tight, that’s not necessarily the case.

Anyone who has interviewed for a new job has likely encountered an awkward moment or two. Some awkwardness, like there being no one at the reception area to greet you, is short-lived and can be overcome fairly easy. But sometimes the awkwardness is baked into the job interview, like when the hiring manager asks a candidate to name his “spirit animal.” In this post, we’ll focus on bad job interview questions (or cheesy ones) that can repulse top talent.

Fair hiring laws exist to give every candidate an equal chance in the recruitment process. And yet, no matter how familiar some recruiters may be with the rules of the road, a surprising number get tripped up and find themselves inadvertently asking illegal questions. And while doing so might do no greater harm than simply turning good candidates off, in the worst-case scenarios, you could be exposing your organization to a discrimination lawsuit.
