Walters’ Hierarchy of Hiring Managers

What with all this weather and a busy desk, I haven't focused much on politics of late. Even Ardern's resignation and Hipkins' rise to the top has largely passed me by. So much so, that it was my mother-in-law in the UK who told me the news - although this…

Don’t take that tone with me…

Well it's finally happened. After a long yet precarious run, I've finally be shut down by LinkedIn. The reasons for this are long, complicated, and historic. However, to summarise, there seems to be only a certain number of times people can complain about your blog, your profanity, or your burning…

The Secret

I think I've finally cracked it. After a mere 18 years in the recruitment industry, I think I've finally figured out what it takes to create a high-performing agency. Why has it taken me 18 years you may ask? Well, it may have taken me longer than some, but I…

2023 Predictions: A Timeline

Welcome back folks. Or welcome back some folks. Once again, and moronically, I find myself surprised by how few people are back to work already. This is my 12th January in Aotearoa, and yet each year I think it's going to be different. Call me a curmudgeon, but by the…

Christmas just ain’t the same anymore. Thankfully.

7 years ago, I wouldn't be writing this. Although we are religious in pumping a blog out every Friday, and have been for 12 years, should a Friday coincide with the last day of the year, we'd put up some mildly comedic photoshopped image and be done with it. Writing…

Recruitment Consultant Stereotypes: Which are you?

If you've been about Auckland City this week, you may have seen a sweaty 100kg man flying around on a moped. One minute, sweating under the sun like a paedophile in a playground, and the next, as wet as an otter's pocket. That man was me. Having temporarily taken over…

Who’d be a Rec to Rec?

I never wanted to work in Rec to Rec. In fact, of all the desks in recruitment, 12 years ago it would have been bottom of my list. It would have been so far down in fact, that I would have told you that I would have been a real…

I stumbled across something from the desk of a jilted insecure American man this week but, does he have a point? 🤔

All of Government Part 5: Was it all a Dream?

I used to have a recurring nightmare of being chased by battle tanks across the farm my Grandparents lived on. Although the tanks were slow-moving, in this dream, my legs felt like lead weights, making me even slower. As always, I was relieved to wake up just as I was…

Annual Leave, Do We Need It? 🤔

Less people are taking annual leave. But why? And what impact does that have on employees and employers? 🧐
