<www.army-technology.com> A little under a year ago I read a working group summary from CAHRS titled “The Changing Role of the HR Business Partner” At the time much of the summary resonated with me… while other components of it remained abstract. Ergo, I resolved to revisit the document at another time once I had more experience in my role. …This morning I gave the piece another read (check it out here ), and the following section jumped out: …So a good Gene

It's hard to believe it's the end of summer. :-( We may not be ready to let go of picnics (and double scoops of ice cream), but we are looking forward to the fall. That's because for most businesses, the last four months of the calendar year are typically the busiest. This doesn't just pertain to retail and seasonal shopping. Rather, the pace of business picks up across the board with the prevalence of conferences, continuing education opportunities, and end-of-year budget usage.

Your job as a hiring professional isn’t just to find the best fit for your company and the job at hand. After all, who’s to say the job candidate you want also wants you? Chances are, your first-choice candidate isn’t just interviewing with your company, but with a handful of others — which is why it’s equally important to sell your company and the position to candidates.

I’m traveling this week and am sharing one of my most popular posts from 2013. Might be worth a re-visit! Skills shortages in 2020 will rise to an entirely new level. And I’m not talking about STEM skills, although they’re critical. Or the ability to speak multiple languages, which needs to be more common in the U.S. Or even the readiness of college graduates to take a place in the economy, which a majority of employers report is lacking.

Companies need diversity. It helps them think with a wider breadth of perspectives, makes them look better to the public eye, and gives them access to the potential revenue gains from employing people who can contribute different things to the companies they work for. Still, many hiring managers and people in charge don’t see hiring diversity as an issue.

A question from a savvy reader related to formal and informal mandates that minority candidates be interviewed for any under-utilized area or position: So, Kris, how does Facebook (or any company with similar goals related to interviewing minorities) determine that a candidate is a minority before the interview? If the candidate comes from outside the company, it is likely that the manager has not seen him/her before, unless they did some research on LinkedIn.

Video interviewing has become a powerful tool for staffing firms, as it saves these companies both time and resources, while allowing them to serve their clients more effectively.

One of the words I’m trying to banish from my vocabulary is “easy.” Easy means something different to everyone. What’s easy to you could be difficult to me and vice versa. Easy implies “no-brainer” and that’s not always the case. Especially when it comes to describing technology. That’s why – when it comes to technology – I like to think of things as being intuitive (versus easy).
