#RHUBNZ – A Glimpse at Recruitment’s Future

Over the past two days the Recruiter's Hub roadshow rolled into Auckland and I must say I have been blown away by the whole event. Having attended these in Australia I was keen to see if we could put on a similar kind of show in New Zealand. By the end of the…

Moving On…and Ten Tips to Develop a Winning Recruitment Culture

So the All-of-Government panel for recruitment services was officially announced this week. Well done to the 44 firms who made the panel and my apologies to Mana Recruitment and Careering Options who were missed off the leaked document from a couple of weeks ago.

Job Search Scam Further Damages Recruitment’s Reputation

For an industry often compared unfavourably with those selling used cars and snake oil the recruitment industry has been keeping its nose pretty clean in New Zealand in recent months. That was until tonight when I saw the 6 o'clock News report that revealed a job search scam seemingly set…

SEEK eats LinkedIn for Breakfast

Quick one this week. As you read this I should be well on my way to the mountain to show my kids snow for the first time. Hopefully there's a spare carrot somewhere in Ohakune for the snowman's nose. It was good to see a number of you at the LinkedIn…

Christchurch Recruitment’s Bright Future

I've just returned to Auckland after spending a couple of days mooching around the Christchurch recruitment industry and it's hard to know quite how to start this blog post. What an amazing city. Brought to its knees by the devastating earthquake back in February 2011, this place still has a…

All-of-Government Recruitment a Bitter Pill to Swallow

There will be some sore heads in Wellington this morning. Some perhaps from the collective palm-meets-forehead moments when recruitment managers and sales managers saw how low the bidding was going for the privilege of recruiting for All-of-Government.

The coffee-drinking David vs. the cold-calling Goliath

Having to follow on from Sean Walters’ epic blog offering featured last Friday on the Whiteboard, I must admit to approaching this entry with a degree of trepidation. It’s not that I think I’m less entertaining or insightful than Sean, it’s just these characteristics are best displayed in a face…

The Internal Recruitment Pie: Do you really want a slice?

Those who follow our usual Blogger Jon Rice on Twitter will know that he has taken a well-earned holiday. Being the dynamic yet empowering leader that he is, and nothing to do with the fact that he’ll be drinking cocktails on a Samoan beach right about now, he’s handed the…
