Contingent workforce leader & connector of people by day. Hockey obsessed, overly opinionated father and husband the rest of the time.

@Scobleizer @STWxAi It’s usually significantly more than $10K per hire. Depending on the firm and search criteria it is 15-25% of first year’s annual salary. Sometimes, more or less but that range is typical.

Love Will Smith but Chernyshov a perfect pairing for the Celebrini line. Big, fast, good hands, nose the the net. #sjshaks

Guessing this is from the #corralfire. Given how far away we are, this thing must be growing with the winds picking up. Hope everyone is safe.

Hiring Managers aren't just looking for the best candidates for their openings.

They're looking for the best candidates with the least amount of risk.

They sound the same, but many times can be two completely separate different things.

@nugsnet the site is a mess. Keep the stream going on YouTube for free. #DeadandCompany

Hey @united I’m flying YYC to SFO this afternoon and had a stressful situation arise with my travel docs for the flight. The desk agent lead was nothing short of outstanding in her service and support. I didn’t catch her name but she deserves recognition and a bonus!

Surprise! Research uncovers the damaging results of "return to office" mandates.

Nearly half of companies that mandated office returns witnessed a higher level of employee attrition than they had anticipated.

Almost a third (29%) of companies enforcing office returns are struggling with recruitment.

A staggering 76% of employees are prepared to leave if their companies decide to pull the plug on flexible work schedules.

42% of candidates would outright reject roles that lack flexibility.

So, what's luring employees away?
Increased compensation (48%)
Greater job security (34%)
Career advancement opportunities (32%)
Better flexible work policies (28%)
A more positive company culture (27%)

@StacyZapar If you’re invested in the graduate because of the relationship at least $100. If more casual, $50 would be appropriate from my view. Alternatively, I like to give something useful if the person is going away to school like a basic toolbox or basic cutlery/knives.

[The Random Recruiter @randomrecruiter]

Are you wondering if you have a strong network? Ask yourself this:

"If I got laid off today, are there at least 3-5 people I can call within the next week who can help refer me into a job application?"

If not, it's time to get to work building it out.

[The Random Recruiter @randomrecruiter]

There seems to be a common theme with layoffs:

- Big Tech
- Some start ups
- Private tech companies

But I can tell you the "boring" industries are still hiring:
- Banking
- Pharma
- Telecom
- Etc

You can still be a SWE working in non-tech industries making solid $

@reedo284 Stemmy weed and dubiously acquired hand tools out of the back of a Dodge Charger that you’re a month and a half behind in payments.

@Humanheadhunter The feeling that one is a part of the journey not merely a passenger. Make every step human, transparent, and about the relationship regardless of outcome.

[John Poore @staffinggeek]

I see a new phrase has been coined on LinkedIn: rage applying. I’ll sit back, grab some popcorn, and wait for @Humanheadhunter to skewer this latest nonsense.

[John Poore @staffinggeek]

@LinusEkenstam Yep, Zapier. I have an auto responder built into my LinkedIn.

[John Poore @staffinggeek]

There must be a group of people who sit around and make up nonsense business terms in an attempt to tastemake employer relationship definitions. The word they were looking for here was apathy, I believe. https://t.co/kXfP49f5yh
