While the employee onboarding process should instill confidence in new hires, it goes beyond warm fuzzies. You and your team are preparing the new employee for the reality of the job. Give them the wrong idea about your company or their position, and you will see a quickly exiting or disengaged hire. Aside from the critical steps of the employee onboarding process , your team should be using your company culture and values to inspire a unique experience.

I remember moving to Australia back in 2005, looking forward to starting afresh after five full-on years of London living, to meeting, mixing and mingling in a new culture. Scratching around for a meaningful job I accidentally ended up securing a role in recruitment. I wasn’t entirely sure why Hays seemed so convinced I’d make a good recruiter, but after my first couple of days at work I realised: I was pretty much a blueprint for what used to work for them back then.

When developing your employer brand strategy, you’ll hear many terms thrown around such as social media optimization, content curation, and brand engagement.

To be truly successful, some organizations believe that they must adopt core values that support their mission and vision, shape their culture, and embody their identity. Typically, those values — whether they are to be environmentally friendly, socially responsible, philanthropic, or anything else — will help articulate what the companies are all about, what they do, how they do it, and why.

First impressions are important, and many new hires are using those first few days on a job to decide just how interested they are in remaining employed within the organization. In fact, some employees consider the candidate experience and time between the offer letter and first day as an important indicator to how all of their employment might go. That’s why a quality onboarding program is so pivotal.

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.

I get mixed responses when communicating how these critical discussions can affect an individual’s performance. For those that see them in a positive light, not surprisingly, they had good experiences from their own 1-1’s with their manager.

When an employee leaves a job after just a short period, one of the questions inevitably raised is whether they were a good cultural match for the business. The person in question might have an impressive CV and performed well in the interview – but it could soon become apparent that they do not share the company outlook or perhaps struggle to get along with colleagues.

When you’re applying for a job do your eyes wander from the job description towards the benefits package being offered? I hope that I’m not alone? I am a firm believer that a company which rewards its staff accordingly, is a happier place to work. I’m not saying that every employer can offer a car allowance, store discount or iPad as not every business can afford these luxury benefits for their staff.

Communicating with developer candidates at each stage of the interview process can be tricky. As a recruiter, you walk a fine line between giving candidates what they want and identifying developers that your engineering managers are excited to hire. While you should avoid treading too lightly, you can bring a conversation with a developer to a screeching halt with a few subtle, but irritating words.

In an article I published earlier this year about how job candidates feel about AI apps in the application process , I shared some data we developed that showed job seekers are mostly okay with interacting with robots to help the interview and application process along. But also that there is still a need for some human interaction in the process. That’s largely due to the fact that artificial intelligence is not good with the human quality of empathy.

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.

Talented individuals don’t stay on the market long, so it’s important to be accessible and engaged with the candidates where they spend most time. Social media is a fantastic way to connect with an audience, and that audience is likely full of candidates who would make great employees.
