One thing I’ve noticed in years of writing this blog is that people when find themselves in terrible, ridiculous job interviews where they’re being mistreated — or even just interviews where it’s clear really early on that this isn’t the right match — they feel obligated to stick it out until the end. You’re not obligated to stay when that happens. In fact, look at it from the employer’s side: Employers cut short interviews all the time when it becomes clear that it’s not the right match. You’re allowed to do the same thing yourself. bad interviewer behavior

It’s been a long day. It’s been a long couple of days. I’m sitting on a plane and we have been in flight for about an hour. The baby in the seat next to me has been crying for just over an hour. No amount of music can drown out the sound of that crying. know I have another hour to go. Soaking up the view on a balcony in Florence a couple of months ago seems a world away. Someone once told me that the sound of a baby crying had been honed by thousands of years of evolution to be too annoying to ignore. Maybe I read it somewhere. Or furious with the world. No rhythm.

TalentCulture

OCTOBER 20, 2015

What is the most constructive way to give feedback?   You praise, you criticise or you do both? Some say that the Americans prefer the feedback ‘sandwich’. It means 3-step feedback. You start with positive comments, then add one or two things that can be done better, and finish with more positive points. However, some leadership training experts advise that one should step away from this model.

There’s a big difference between knowing what the strategy is and being able to connect with it. Bottom-line: the difference is engagement. Organizations create strategies all the time. They communicate those strategies on a regular basis. For example, you could read a company’s strategy in the news. That doesn’t mean you’re connected with the strategy. Maybe you can even articulate it. Their role?

It was a ginger plant, and yes it was pretty and did smell nice - but it had also over grown its designated space.  Reliable workers?  Good workers?  Expensive?  Not really.

At #hrtechconf this week and if there's one sector that continues to get a lot of buzz, it's all things employment branding. Lots of solutions on the expo floor designed to help you look better than you really are as a company. And that may be the problem, right? Maybe you shouldn't look better than you are. Maybe you should just broadcast to the outside world exactly who you are, and then focus on finding the best match for that, as well as occasionally up-selling (or down-selling) the right candidate to take a chance on your brand. Take Vegas for example. The key?
