The is a complex beast. The only problem is that most of todays’ agency recruiters are in fact . No disrespect. You just are. Holding on to the past like a security blanket. And that’s a shame because it means you will miss out on the of recruitment that is fast upon us. The is about accessing candidates your competitors, and more importantly, your clients, cannot. And for that to happen you cannot rely on redundant talent acquisition strategies that no longer work. Any recruiter, who for jobs, is destined to fail. So, what to do? Firstly you have to reinvent yourself as a ‘skills hunter’. This is all about being proactive, aggressive and smart about identifying, approaching and seducing candidates. It involves digital sourcing, phone sourcing and active social sourcing, where you use social sites as database of candidates that you target and hunt down. But the modern recruiter..

Winston Churchill described Daylight Savings by saying: “An extra yawn one morning in the springtime, an extra snooze one night in the autumn… We borrow an hour one night in April; we pay it back with golden interest five months later.” Sounds easy enough, right? Apparently it’s not that easy…in fact, according to Dr. Yvonne Harrison in an article in the journal Sleep Medicine Reviews, she concluded that the seemingly small one-hour shift in the sleep cycle can affect our sleep for up to a week. So for those of you feeling tired today like I do, apparently we may not be alone… I think having it get dark outside so early can also contribute to feeling tired. For some reason as soon as it’s dark outside I just want to jump into my bed with a steaming cup of hot cocoa and snuggle in my covers and go to..

On Friday (November 4th), right before the end of the business day, .  Grantland was a site started by sports author Bill Simmons, and it was purchased by ESPN a few years ago and Bill came over to ESPN to continue to run it successfully. Bill Simmons is an exceptional writer, and assembled a great writing team, and Grantland was a blog I read every day. This is from ESPN on the announcement of shutting down Grantland: “Grantland distinguished itself with quality writing, smart ideas, original thinking and fun. We are grateful to those who made it so. Bill Simmons was passionately committed to the site and proved to be an outstanding editor with a real eye for talent. Thanks to all the other writers, editors and staff who worked very hard to create content with an identifiable sensibility and consistent intelligence and quality.” So, what happened? Bill Simmons was..

I have started several recruitment businesses, and I invest in new start-ups right now too. But if I were to rush back into the main game, and start a business tomorrow that I intended to run, there are certain things I would do, and others I would not. I certainly would build a business that was niche, specialised and deep in an area where talent was hard to find. Yes, hard to find. Because clients will only pay us for hard to find skills, so the idea is to become a world champion at finding talent in a niche, and go deep. For sure I would build a strategy that delivered at least 60% of my GP from temp and contract activity. In fact 70% would be better. When my ex-Recruitment Solutions colleagues started people2people, and I invested and helped on their Board, I know I irritated them by insisting..

Today I was at a meeting where I ran into a very dear friend and mentor of mine who is someone I admire and care about very much. A few months ago he had a major heart attack and went through serious heart surgery. It came as a shock to all of us when he had his heart attack because he is one of the most health conscious, athletic people you would ever find. He has been slowly recovering and coming to terms with the fact that his life is going to have to slow down a bit going forward, which for someone as active as he is will be a major challenge. Today was the first day I have seen him since his heart attack and I was so happy to be able to go and give him a hug and see that he is back on his feet..
