The day and meeting: May 30th All TA Team Meeting on a zoom call. I was reporting on our teams success sharing that after a year of building out the first COE where recruiters and sources were working as a team - communicating and partnering like Sourcers and Recruiters should be. I felt a huge sense of pride and then...waterworks. while on camera letting every recruiter, my boss, and my peer that I was extremely proud of our teams. I got myself together and started talking again until I couldn't...b/c the tears came back. No one said anything except my peer who knew what I wanted to say and continued for me. For me that is when I knew, the team understood. I have never in my many years as an employee cry in front of others. It was a first. There were so many emotions going through my head. But, I knew it was OK as I was comfortable doing what I did. I was like a proud parent and I couldn't help it. Did I mention how proud I am of my team? #recruiting #meetings #talentacquisition #hr

For all of my recruiting friends out there, I have set up a FB community just for recruiters that is going to be focused on setting a higher standard for our industry by focusing on an elite recruiter mindset and peak performance. It's going to be a bit different because we are going to require our members to come to the table with solutions to everyday recruiting problems and educate/help new recruiters learn how to serve their clients and candidates a consultant level NOT just be a resume slinger. Too many of the current groups are focused on the next shiny object, and people whining about how bad things are because they were never taught the right way to recruit. And quite frankly, they are looking for the EASY button. This is my way of giving back to the recruiting community in hopes of elevating the recruiting industry's persona. Because let's face it, most people think we are no better than used car salesmen. It's time to set a higher standard and elevate our game so we can serve people at a much higher level and start being considered consultants, NOT resume slingers. If you want to join us, the link to the group is in the comments....Who's ready to set a higher standard?

"Staffing agencies are bloodsucking." I always get these messages when I'm doing something very not predatory, like sending pictures of the stained glass I made to candidates. BUT, not all agencies are created the same, and if that is someone's experience, that is completely fair. It's a fun challenge when we get that feedback because we tend to be the agency that restores faith in our clients that there ARE great staffing partners out there that don't just have their own bottom line in mind. With your previous partnerships - What happened? Where did it go wrong? What could a new agency offer that would make you trust the process and that the resource is worth your while? (Besides, to peel back the curtain a bit, our structure is such that we AREN'T motivated to send you anyone but those that truly fit what you need.) If you have negative experience with previous agencies, let's talk. We can rebuild that trust and clean up the mess.

Recruiting agencies have a bad reputation… And the way most recruiters work does nothing to make it better. Submitting candidates for a Salesforce developer role who are barely qualified to be an Admin… Ignoring (or not bothering to find out) the nuances of the role. Not communicating. Taking forever to find candidates… and then the candidates they find aren’t the right ones. And the IT department doesn’t know it’s an external firm that’s making these mistakes. As with so many other situations… HR gets the blame. That’s where we come in. Filling those Salesforce positions quickly, with the right person… The first time. And 85% of our candidates stay 3+ years. So that “open Salesforce role” headache doesn’t come back any time soon.
