When Additional Education is Worth the Effort

Many individuals who are seeking employment or who are already in the workforce may often wonder if obtaining additional education could enhance their career options. Furthering one’s education necessitates an enormous amount of time, energy and money. For these reasons, many people may view additional schooling as a daunting or worthless expenditure.

Recruiting From Law Schools In A Down Economy

While employment figures have visibly ticked upwards in recent months, there’s no question that the economy is still stagnant and that the job market continues to be tough.

The Future of Staffing and Recruiting -- Profit Niches

What kind of profit niches should you serve tomorrow?

That we are nowhere near a recovery from the recession that supposedly ended in 2009 is readily apparent. In fact, according to a massive, in-depth analysis and report from the McKinsey Global Institute, they believe that it will be about 2015 before employment reaches its pre-recession level. Even more sobering is their analysis that only under the most optimistic of conditions will the U.S. economy return to full…

What Have You Learned Lately?

This past spring I traveled to Colorado for my very first ski vacation. My ostensible goal was to have fun, learn a little about a new sport and return intact, with no external fixation devices on any part of my body.

As with any new endeavor with a relatively higher than average risk/return ratio, it seemed like a good idea to spend the time, effort and expense of getting some one-on-one ski instruction, which paid off well in terms of my getting a better understanding of the rules,…

Is a Talent Pipeline Important for Successful Hiring?

The talent pipeline, an overused phrase developed by larger professional staffing firms that produces the idea that you need a strong set of professional people waiting at a moment's notice for the new position, the right job, the next career step.  It has become so engrained in our minds that this "best practice" is a must have.  But does it really work?  Think about it, are the best people simply waiting for the next role or the next step up the ladder.  I challenge you to re-think your…

Government Worker Benefits vs. Private Worker Benefits

  It’s not expected that benefits should be equal with every opportunity or position out there but is it possible that the benefits offered for government positions are better than private positions.  It depends on what benefits and opportunities you’re looking for, what appeals to you.  I will say this; can you ever reach a government employee after 5pm even 4pm if you’re calling on a Friday?  For most of us working tirelessly, to make enough money for the government just to have a bit left…

Discover hidden jobs with this app

Hidden jobs are everywhere. You just have to know where to look. I believe todays job seekers need to "company hunt" not job hunt. They need to look for companies that are growing/expanding. And these companies aren't necessarily on the job boards. I've recently created a new app to help you find these jobs.

 

Its called the ‘hidden jobs app’ and it tracks hidden job announcements across the U.S. in a simple interface that accesses a proprietary…
