Good morning Recruiters of New Zealand. A quick and early one from me today as I’m off to Nelson with Sean for my 40th for some reflective beach walks and perhaps a little bit of sampling of the local refreshments. It’s a welcome break. My head’s slightly frazzled from putting together a long-list for a senior role in Auckland that I’m working on at the moment.

Do not be discouraged – it is possible to sell these “old-school” clients on newer recruiting technology!

It doesn’t matter how often or how loudly people like me rant about the currently talent-favoring employment arena. It doesn’t matter how much I say “You can just as easily drive people away with bad recruiting practices, as pull them in!”. It seems that there is something in the human psyche that impels us to act like idiots when we interview job-seekers.

You hired William, a change agent to shake things up at your company, someone who can “speak truth to power.” In interviews, he talked up building consensus and creating change without overstepping his bounds or badmouthing past employers and their challenges.

Millennials have different values and mindsets than the generations that preceded them, causing employers to actively alter how they plan to retain their staff. Companies now recognize that a job and a salary can no longer ensure workplace loyalty, so they are beginning to implement programs that cater to Generation Y’s needs. While this is a strong start, 57 percent of Millennials feel as if their employer is not striving to build programs that better meet the needs of their generation.
