So, back in March, I told you that HRCI was going to die ! You know the whole SHRM started their own certification and why would anyone want two certifications.

Move across the street from SHRM (I mean literally across the freaking street!) and set up a new camp. think that’s funny and cool, and shows some of the spunk the HRCI crew has in them.

By Anthony Kwan, Product Marketing Manager, Ceridian . Is your organization ready for the new changes surrounding the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) overtime rule? If you’re not aware yet, essentially what will happen is that on December 1 st 2016, the minimum salary for employees to be considered exempt from the FLSA overtime provision will change to $47,476, which is equivalent to $913 per week. On paper, this change may appear to be plain and simple, but realistically speaking, this isn’t the case. It’s imperative for organizations to maintain compliance to the new rule.

"What should I expect?". This is a question that goes through every candidate's mind as soon as they begin considering a new position—and it stays at the back of their mind all through onboarding. As a recruiter and HR leader, it's your job to help manage those expectations. I had the chance on the latest and greatest episode of Talent Sniper Radio (my company podcast over at my recruiting firm, Kinetix ) to talk to Dawn Burke, VP of People at Daxko, to discuss how companies with great cultures (and lesser cultures) should manage the expectations of new employees.
