The phrase, “unlimited PTO,” is probably accompanied by an exciting feeling in your belly and a smile ear-to-ear.

What NOT to Add to Your Resume

2022-08-02T13:32:08-04:00Categories: Behind the Scenes, How To, Resumes & Cover Letters|Tags: , , , , , , , |0 Comments

We have previously discussed what you should be putting on your resume, but we thought it was also important to discuss some things you might be adding that are unnecessary. We understand that in some cases, you feel you need to bulk up your resume, but sometimes simple and sweet is the key. Adding unnecessary information can be mistaken as unprofessional and may deter the employer from considering you for their open position, so you’ll want to be diligent in making sure these things are not on your resume.

Why Are We Ghosting?

2022-08-02T13:42:09-04:00Categories: Acing the Interview, All About Recruiters, Behind the Scenes, General News|Tags: , , , , , , |0 Comments

Serious question, why are we ghosting? This unfortunate habit which surfaced through the abandonment of dating your newest Tinder interest has changed course in the business world and it’s coming in with a bang. People would rather cower to their disagreements than speak the truth and the worst part is that it comes from all directions. I am not just singling out candidates who are ghosting interviews or job offers, I am also shining a light on companies who are ghosting candidates post-interview with no reason as to why they do not want to move forward. The question is why [...]

Remote Work-Life Balance

2022-06-01T16:36:12-04:00Categories: Behind the Scenes, How To|Tags: , , , , , , |0 Comments

With remote work being the new norm we thought it was time to address ways to separate work and home life. You may be adapting to bad habits without realizing it, and though working from home to some is a luxury, you are not exempt from the necessity of a work-life balance. There are two sides to everything in life, and even working remotely comes with its share of negatives. Loneliness and isolation are the largest reported concern amongst remote workers. So, the question is how do you prevent yourself from falling into this feeling, or if you already feel [...]

2022-05-20T10:22:23-04:00Categories: All About Recruiters, Behind the Scenes, Services|Tags: , , , , , , |0 Comments

Your company is certainly not exempt from the aftershock of this pandemic. With the influx of employees resigning from their jobs (4.3 million and rising to be exact) businesses are feeling hurt. We are all frantically looking for our new norm and trying to keep our heads above water. Maybe a part of your new norm should be hiring a recruiter to help satisfy your open roles and take some of the burdens off your plate. It is arguably harder than ever to find qualified, lasting candidates and thankfully we have some tricks up our sleeves to help weed out [...]

5 Signs It May Be Time to Call a Recruiter (Candidate Edition)

2022-05-20T10:25:48-04:00Categories: All About Recruiters, Resources for Job Seekers|Tags: , , , , , |0 Comments

We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again, a job search is not the highlight of anybody’s day. There’s no denying that it’s like adding a full-time job to your already full-time life, and we’ve never heard someone use “easy,” and “job search” in the same sentence. Though the pandemic may seem behind us, the aftershock is still in full effect and some people are still out of a job or have the burning desire for a new one and they’re struggling with where to begin. This is the time when you should definitely be taking advantage of the [...]

Is Team Building a Thing of the Past?

2022-05-20T10:27:31-04:00Categories: Uncategorized|Tags: , , , , , , , |0 Comments

Has team building become a thing of the past? I can vividly recall as little as 10 years ago, in each of the jobs I worked, having a team bonding day. A day where the employees got together outside the office, had some food and talked about anything other than work. One day out of the year to show appreciation for not just the employees, but those who steered the ship as well. Now, you’re lucky if you get a holiday luncheon. Something that we may have all grunted about having to attend is now a thing of the past [...]

How Are You Maintaining Company Culture?

2022-05-20T09:22:42-04:00Categories: Behind the Scenes, How To, How to Survive the '9-5'|Tags: , , , , , , |0 Comments

It’s probably safe to say that if your company is still working fully remote that those occasional threats of going back in the office will likely not come to fruition. I say ‘threats’ because, for some, it may have taken you this long to get into a routine that allowed you to maintain separation between work life and home life and having to uproot that would certainly cause stress. Now add in the fact that, like many other companies, you may have open positions that you are struggling to fill with qualified candidates. The big question here is how are [...]
