I just finished reading a post discussing a new sit-com pilot on FOX with the working title HR. I’ll link to that article a little bit later, but for now let’s consider what this new show might mean to the world of Human Resources. I certainly support the idea of a new comedy based around the Human Resources profession–no loss for material there.

Looking Forward: A New Approach to Performance Management. Over time, businesses have found that rating people on a strict rubric is a faulty approach to performance management. It feels cookie-cutter to employees, and it doesn’t inspire them to take positive steps for their future. Instead, we need to start thinking about a new system that is practical, positive, and more human.

I enjoyed this recent article from NZ recruiter Karl Harenburg reminding us of the importance of picking up the phone. It sounds so obvious yet we appear to have reached an era of such information overload that I think it really is the only way to cut through all the noise nowadays. We had a team gathering yesterday with our Business Managers from Christchurch and Wellington joining us in Auckland and part of the meeting centered around what we found to be the most effective sales tools.

If you have been working in the recruitment industry for some time or have just started out, chances are you have heard the term Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) and how it can potentially benefit your recruitment strategy.

I recently read a blog from Greg Savage, Is Agency recruitment going to be Uber-ised? The answer here. Greg’s premise is that there are a ton of new start-ups in the recruitment space offering the latest and greatest idea to revolutionize recruitment with technology. Many, if not most, of these start-ups are offering new tools that seek to streamline or improve the “matching” part of the process.

HR Compliance is like a giant game of whack-a-mole. Once you think your company is compliant with all policies and procedures documented and in place, there’s a new or amended law, regulation, or final rule that pops up landing you back at ‘start.’ There are shifts, interpretations, and balancing acts to understanding compliance changes. Keeping up is not easy and it’s very time consuming.

It’s time to face facts: the hiring process needs some tweaking. A 2015 Leadership IQ survey found that only 19 percent of new hires achieve great success in their first 18 months, while 46 percent utterly fail. Instead of screening out bad hires, the hiring process is letting them right on through. Then whether it’s a month or a year later, you have to repost the job description, and you’re right where you started.

Take a look at any job board and you’ll see a slew of profiles and listings with the title “Senior Developer” in them. But what exactly makes this employee Senior? Usually, someone with this word in their job title has been in their field for a certain amount of time or has a specific amount of work experience. So we were a little shocked when 30% of developers we surveyed that identified as a “Senior Developer” were in their 20s.

One thing I’ve learned (the hard way) from founding a rapidly growing company is without ownership and accountability you literally cannot grow your business. In fact, without employee ownership and accountability, your business is dying. Ownership offers the freedom for employees to deliver results. It’s about them taking initiative and responsibility for their work.

I read with interest Glassdoor.com’s listing of the Best Jobs in America. Sometimes I think there is a direct relationship between the best jobs and the most highly recruited candidates. According to Glassdoor, what makes a job the best job is the combination of compensation, demand for the skill, and advancement opportunities. Those in recruiting and HR know that hot job categories and in demand skills are multipliers when it comes to compensation.
