Hangovers and jet-lag be damned! The show must go on. That's why the boys connected after the conference in Ostend this week to chat a little Euro news and breakdown the week in Belgium. Adecco was in the news for bringing on a new CEO. Losing 50 percent of its stock value probably wasn't a good thing for the guy he's replacing. Jobandtalent has embraced acquisitions as a way to spend its hundreds of millions in investment. This time, a Norwegian staffing firm is on the menu. And yes, as promised, the boys wrap-up the conference with takeaways, teaching and teases for next year. Enjoy, and pass the Alka-Seltzer while you're at it.

In this week's HR tech roundup: Qualtrics launches Employee Experience ID, Employers prioritize DEI hiring, and more.

We talk about the movement of analytics into HR, the notion of providing access to end users, and some recent moves the company’s made,

Recording live from Ostend, Belgium, ahead of the House of HR conference, the boys are in the kind of zone only a pint of Chimay can inspire. LinkedIn loses again and Comparably says it’s probably time to stop thinking Glassdoor is vulnerable (and chalk up another acquisition where terms aren’t disclosed). The boys then play a little buy-or-sell with BarRaiser, Valence and Pando “Don’t Call Us Logical.” Nike vs. Airbnb wraps up the show making us question which WFH policy will rule the future (hint: it rhymes with “hairbnb”). Oh yeah, and you gotta about the boys wild Amsterdam adventure with sponsor Textkernel. Cheers!

As Kim Wilkinson decompresses from her 15 minutes of fame, that was, over 6,000 people from around the world signed up to hear her talk about building a personal brand; she is gearing up for the next best thing - The Canadian Recruiter Networking Group on May 26! Other than being the lowest of low, can a company rescind their offer of employment with no reason given? And yeah, you quit already quit your job? Let’s unpack this with a bold and underline disclaimer. We are not employment lawyers Recruitment Insights Ground rules for Agency Recruiters, the service you provide to candidates is the key to success. Establishing a mutually beneficial relationship is the foundation of building your brand as a recruiter. Try and follow this rant, as Serge does his level best to parallel dating life to why so many people who changed jobs earlier this year are suffering the guilt of leaving a good thing when they had it. A moral debate or reality check, having university degree does not equal success on the job, on this we all agree. The latest survey of HR professionals who see experience as a greater asset than having a university degree; following….. You cant fix old school thinking, bad culture and competitive job market with a new recruitment process. The difficult conversations we have every day in recruitment.

We discuss the challenges of incorporating data into hiring , how that impacts recruiters and what’s doing with Talview’s roadmap.

Employment branding is hotter than ever. Thanks Great Resignation! However, as our special guest James Ellis, host of The Talent Cast podcast and senior manager at Recursion says, "We're all just figuring it out as we go along." That's why we brought him on this episode of the Cult Brand series with RecruitMarketing.com's Julie Calli. We dig into the state of the profession, how Covid changed everything and what role technology plays in building a strong employment brand.

This week: Workday aims to help with ESG, while Salesforce and Slack launch a joint toolkit. And more.

After over two years of unprecedented disruption, it has become evident that things have changed forever. However, many employers are still attempting to stick with the talent acquisition and employee experience strategies they had before the pandemic. So what are the dangers of behaving as if nothing has changed, and how should companies now set their strategies for the long term? My guest this week is Amanda Black, Director of Inclusive Search at Good Works Consulting. Amanda has wide-ranging experience in talent acquisition and DE&I and has some expert insights to share on the long term impact of The Great Resignation. In the interview, we discuss: A disrupted talent market Shifts in the employer/employee model Revealing inequalities in the system Permanently changed expectations Long term solutions and The Great Opportunity How successful employers are shifting their employee experience Modelling and demonstrating values Are companies taking DE&I seriously?

We talk with Shay David about the labor market, automation and the changes in store for business,

Beamery me up, Scotty, and get that Delorean to 88 MPH! This show is heavy, and not because there's something wrong with the earth's gravitational pull in the future. No, it's because we have an acquisition of some company called Flux and an update on the HiQ / LinkedIn legal drama. Plus, Predictive Hire is changing its name and the boys play a little Buy-or-Sell with Crafty, Beatrust, and Vivian (sounds like a party we attended back in '94). Anyway, it's another can't-miss weekly episode of HR's most dangerous podcast. You're welcome.

What is the limit in asking for favours? Clients who always want something for free or friends who need help moving - again. Money seems to draw the line in both, perhaps we are just too Canadian and cant say no. White Hot brand A&F takes the walk of shame having the most sickening hiring practices. Worse yet is the fact they documented everything. Nothing like leaving a trail of evidence. They’d never survive in the age of social media. .Freshii locations in Toronto outsource their cashiers to a call centre in Nicaragua. Nothing to see here, this too will flop under the microscope of social media. $3.75 USD an hour just isn't a good look for any corporation according to Shelley but Serge sets her straight by doing some research and realizing that's double the average wage in Nicaragua. There’s an app for that. Don't waste your time creating 50 personalized in-mails that only 5 people may respond to. Over 50 and choosing not to work. With better health than previous generations, 50 is the new 40? Face facts, if the labour shortage is real, it seems ridiculous to overlook older workers. Who’s with me?

The challenges of 2022 are causing many organisations to think very differently about talent. The employers who are getting it right are looking holistically at talent acquisition, development, retention and attrition to create the opportunity to build a talent dense organisation. So what does this look like in practice, and how can your company get there? My guest this week is Taylor Roa, Director of Talent at Wistia. Wistia is a growing technology company with an incredible culture and a big focus on talent density. They also use video as their superpower to showcase their unique employer brand. In the interview, we discuss: Recruiting challenges at Wistia Meaningful work and culture versus cash and compromise Using video to represent the company culture authentically. Making a competitive advantage of putting people first Becoming a talent dense organisation Why retention is not about trapping people Being a business that it is good to be from How the pandemic has changed work Advice on getting more from video in employer branding A defining decade in the future of work A full transcript will appear here shortly. Listen to this podcast on Apple.

We talk about the past and future of on-demand, virtual coaching.

In this episode, Jackye and Katee talk about the ongoing violence against Asian Americans & Pacific Islanders. But we want to share resources that will help find a solution, not just talk about it.

With a growing number of use cases, people analytics continues to develop both in sophistication and the amount of value it drives for employers. However, despite the quantum leap in recruiting technology we've seen in the last few years, I still feel that talent acquisition is significantly lagging behind where it should be in terms of data and analytics. My guest this week is Vic Akosile, an HR Strategy Consultant at Humananalytics. Vic is a highly experienced people analytics specialist. He gives us an excellent overview of what is going on in the space and what talent acquisition leaders need to consider if they want to develop their data and analytics capability. In the interview, we discuss: The evolution of People Analytics Cutting edge use cases Increasing digital interactions mean increasing amounts of data.

Skuid CEO Ryan Niemann talks about the impact of low-code development on HR and technology.

Tired of hearing about unicorns in the recruitment space? Doesn't matter, because the parade of glitter-pooping horses continues this week with a double-banger that includes Oyster and Clipboard getting to that billion-dollar valuation. Next, two companies worth well north of a billion, Apple and Starbucks, are in the news, both dealing with unionization efforts from employees. What else? Hirevue passes the buck, California goes after A.I. in recruiting New York State says YES to transparency in monitoring employees. Then a few tequila shots end the show. It's roughly 45 mins. you'll never get back. Sorry, not sorry :)

The world of in-person events is coming alive. We are feeling left out. Who’s in if we bring global TA thought leaders to Canada? Comments welcome. Recruitment Insights of the Week Despite all the hype around TA technology, Bersin Research proves the human part of the process, great Recruiters are the defining factor of finding and keeping great performing employees. Remote jobs are king, for now. The upside, quality of life & the downside, the grass is not always greener. The great resignation is quickly becoming the great regret. Onboarding is not a short term HR thing. Getting it right is the difference between new employees staying or constant churn.

Some of my favourite conversations in the last six months have been around inclusive hiring. Many people are doing brilliant work to support people from marginalised groups into the workforce, and I've learnt a lot from talking to employers like Timpson and organisations like The Bridge of Hope. In this episode, we're going to explore what happens when an employer removes all screening, all background checks and all education and experience requirements from their hiring to be more inclusive. What are the advantages, the challenges, and the results? My guest this week is Nykeba King, Global Head of Inclusion at The Body Shop. A few years ago, The Body Shop created an Open Hiring program to ensure they were being as inclusive as possible. It's a strategy that has produced some amazing results, and it is now giving them a unique competitive advantage in today's challenging talent markets. In the interview, we discuss: Recruiting challenges at The Body Shop What is Open Hiring, and how does it work? No background checks, no screening, no education requirements How Open Hiring is helping The Body Shop in the current talent markets Making recruiting more purposeful with "Targeted Recruitment." Replacing scrutiny with trust Removing barriers and removing bias Implementation challenges The danger of second-guessing someone's ability to do a job Wrap-around support to build an inclusive workplace Time to hire, performance and retention What's next for Open Hiring Listen to this podcast on Apple Podcasts.

The war in Ukraine continues to pull at the fabric of European economies and companies. That's why we invited Neill Dunwoody of Spryt and TechlinkUkraine to join the boys on his take and insight into what the war means for real people trying to escape the horrors of conflict and make a living. Lumped into Ukraine, we talk about how the war could be impacting Europe economies on a macro level, including companies who have to deal with employees in both Russia and Eastern Europe who take opposing sides. It's a messy world, but we're only getting started. Even messier, the episode veers into talking about a company offering "masturbation pods" for employees to relieve some stress. Yup, we went there.

What happens when you get HR's most dangerous podcast together with the industry's most popular TikTok celebrity? Yup, insanity! The boys bring on Leigh Henderson, A.K.A., HR Manifesto, to reveal the secrets of TikTok success for employers.

We'd write more, but you people apparently have no attention span whatsoever ... thanks, TikTok!

Christine is a highly experienced HR leader and has essential advice about building holistic human capital strategies to deal with these incredibly challenging times.

So what effect has the pandemic had on the job board industry, and what is its likely future direction? My guest this week is Steven Rothberg, Founder and Chief Visionary Officer of College Recruiter. Steven has been in the job board industry since it started, and I could think of no better person to give us an update on the current state of the market.

What performance management's changes mean for managers, employees. and performance.

This week in HR technology: High-end recruiters make more money, hireEZ launches two services, and more in our roundup.

Diversity, equity and inclusion are still on the tip of many employers' tongues. However, things like a global pandemic and a world on the edge of World War III have stolen a lot of the spotlight in recent years. So, do employers still care as much as they did just two years ago? It's something to consider, and that's why Chad & Cheese have brought back Barb Hyman, founder and CEO of Predictive Hire. And that's just one topic. If DEI is important to your organization - and you know it should be - then this is a must-listen.

With Serge missing in action, Shelley and Kim take over the mic. We did our best to hold down the fort but we missed our little French friend! Kim was tapped to host some training by none other than LinkedIn! It's about time they took note of her Influencer style! Up for Discussion in this episode Taking a page out of “The Talent Fix” by Tim Sackett, the DNA of a great recruiter.
