Stop messing with an employees mental health

Prioritize Employee Mental Health

The recent layoffs have been sudden and unexpected, leaving many employees feeling disoriented and anxious about our future.

This situation goes beyond just financial concerns; it profoundly affects our mental well-being. The constant fear of job loss is draining and, frankly, unjust.

It’s time for companies to acknowledge the significant impact these layoffs have on their workforce. Let’s foster a healthier work environment for everyone.

Failed job interview

Job Interview Setback
I had an interview yesterday with a well-known education recruitment agency. Today, I received the news that I won’t be moving forward with my application after a lengthy week-long interview process. The feedback I received was that I didn’t “sell myself enough,” which caught me off guard since I felt I was presenting myself well. Do you have any tips on how to better showcase my strengths in future interviews?

Member of staff moonlighting

Staff Member’s Side Business

I manage a small recruitment firm and recently found out that one of my employees has been independently billing clients and using a personal email to communicate and handle candidates. I’m unsure how much he has earned on the side while working full-time with us.

Candidate selection based on current employees! HELP!!!

Seeking Advice on Candidate Selection Based on Existing Employees

Hello, recruiters! Have you ever considered selecting candidates who have previously worked alongside current employees in your organization? Let me illustrate this with an example:

Imagine you’re at Tech Company A, and you’re looking to fill positions for Team B, which consists of employees b1, b2, and b3. Ideally, you’d like to find candidates who have previously collaborated with b1, b2, and b3.

1. Am I the only one intrigued by this approach?
2. Is there a tool available that can streamline this process and identify potential candidates without needing to direct b1, b2, and b3 to reach out to their former colleagues?

I appreciate any insights you can share!

Inquiring about recruitment platforms

Subject: Questions About Recruitment Platforms

Hi everyone,

I recently received an invitation from a recruitment platform called “insightjobsgulf.com.” They have requested a fee to initiate the interview process.

Is it common for recruitment agencies or platforms to ask for payment, and is it safe to proceed with this? If anyone has experience with them, I would greatly appreciate your feedback.

Thanks!

What’s everyone’s ultimate goal?
I’m considering making a change soon and could really use some inspiration for what to pursue after recruitment.

After spending 7 years in the field, with both ups and downs (I’m currently in a sales-driven role at an agency), I’m feeling a bit stagnant.
