When you see a candidate include hobbies in a resume, your first thought as a recruiter or hiring manager might be: “That’s cute, but a waste of space.” But don’t jump to conclusions just yet: if a candidate knows how to craft their resume, interests aren’t an afterthought nor should you consider them to be. A candidate’s ability to create a narrative around their interests can boost their candidacy and help you hire a top applicant.

If you can read a resume, you can figure out a candidate’s primary qualifications. Past positions, diplomas and certifications all speak to specific abilities, proficiencies and areas of expertise, which may be relevant to the job at hand. Yet intangibles, by definition, don’t show up in a magna cum laude honor or completed development course.

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.

Building a great company culture is hard — but maintaining that culture over the years, all the while undergoing hypergrowth, is even harder.
