The best recruiters aren’t necessarily the ones who have the biggest budgets or the largest teams. In an environment of constant change and flux, where talent is a premium differentiator for organizations, it’s the recruiters who have optimized their processes and seek to always improve that stand out above the rest. Recruiting has become a much more strategic and multifaceted role over the years.

Described as “ the most transformative function within an organization ” by the renowned Pat Wadors , leadership is always a top priority in today’s workplace. Strong leaders define vision and culture – they connect every stage of the employee lifecycle, develop talent, and drive results. They are the linchpin of success. However, according to research conducted by Gallup , as many as 50% of employees have left their job to get away from a manager at some point in their careers.

When we think about elevating our approach to inclusive hiring, our minds may drift to improving the language in job descriptions or trying to foster a candidate experience that caters to all. And while these are hugely important elements, there’s something else to consider when it comes to creating a solid foundation – employer branding. In a sea of talent scarcity and skills shortages, it’s never been more important to ensure that your employer brand speaks to the candidates you are trying to

DEI is often touted as a major concern for organizations. And with good reason – society is becoming less and less tolerant of companies who don’t live and breathe these ideals. Talent will actively select equitable workplaces where they can thrive. And customers, too, quickly turn their backs on organizations that aren’t striving for inclusivity.

There was a time when talent acquisition was seen as a purely transactional function. It was a numbers game, all concerned with filling requisitions as quickly as possible. But as the industry developed, so too did recruiting. TA can now be responsible for so much more within this space, from talent information to internal mobility and retention. So, how do we keep this transformation going?

Now, while all that innovation is ultimately great for the industry and will mean that candidates get a better experience dealing with a company, it can be hard to keep up. The game changers seem to be the technology solutions that ease the age old challenges.

“Unprecedented” was selected as a word of the year in 2020. And while its meaning has since been diluted due to sheer frequency of use, the word still rather accurately describes the current state of affairs. The world of work has been irrevocably distorted by the global pandemic; now more than ever, employees are looking to their leaders for guidance and support.

An unprecedented year calls for unprecedented changes – especially in how we work. As the calendar is beginning to tick into its final month, EOY performance reviews are rearing their heads. But how can we accurately assess what employees have “achieved” in such uncertain times? It’s an issue that has clearly been on the mind.

Trying to narrow down candidates for a role can be a difficult task for any recruiter. Using Boolean search writing can help you save time and improve the quality and specificity of candidates from the potential pool. Boolean search is based on the work of prominent British mathematician George Boole. His legacy was Boolean logic, a theory of mathematics in which all variables are either “true” or “false”, or “on” or “off”.

The number of people searching for UK police jobs has fallen by almost a fifth over the last two years, and dipped by 25% since just December. As the new UK government indicates plans to ramp up police recruits across England and Wales, interest in police roles has declined sharply this year, according to new analysis by Indeed. With public plans to employ an extra 20,000 police officers, a lack of willing recruits could cause some serious difficulty.
