What’s an applicant flow log? Many of our clients are required to comply with Affirmative Action and OFCCP (Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs) regulations. While these regulations are wide-ranging and very comprehensive, they typically apply to organizations that have government contracts (or sometimes subcontracts). At their core, these programs help to ensure that organizations don’t discriminate in their hiring processes.

'A few weeks ago I wrote an article about the minority of staffing firms that engage in illegal and unethical behavior, giving the industry as a whole a bad reputation. This week I’m going to offer some thoughts to counter the negative view. Staffing Talk reposted my piece and one of the comments got me thinking.

'[This post came to me from Matt Feller, Account Executive for Tempworks]. You know that warm fuzzy feeling you get when you help someone get something they really want? In the business world, those moments can be few and far between. Getting a client exactly what they want, exactly how they want it can be an exercise in patience and can sometimes take hours of discussion and revision, then more discussion.

'While Employer of Record (EOR) payrolling seems to be a commonplace practice by a majority of our clients, I’m often surprised to find that many people in our industry are still unsure as to what it is exactly. I’m even more surprised to find that when I speak with a company about their need for EOR payrolling services I’m told that they don’t use contractors, or don’t need to payroll contractors, only to find out that they indeed are already using such a service!

'Corresation offers one reason for LinkedIn’s popularity – relief of guilt from firing someone: LinkedIn has become effectively useless as an actual talent/hiring tool, at least in my area, though it remains a pretty decent contacts tool. The recommendation system is just as fictitious as the endorsements: it has been my experience that many recommendations are quid pro quo and have no legitimacy.

This has led to a lot of speculation about Barra, his effectiveness as a manager and the Android division as a whole.

The promise of AI for today’s organizations is real, yet in a frenzied state of experimentation, many stumble to get to a full-scale enterprise. As companies race to discover what generative AI can do, HR must lead conversations about how to balance cutting-edge innovations with integrity, trust, and diversity. Globally, organizations are at a critical intersection of Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and AI acceleration.

Consider this though. New customers are the most expensive ones you will ever have in terms of time, energy and bandwidth.
