Local Recruitment For Local People

I've blogged a few times before about the deterioration of the traditional recruitment models and the need for today's recruiters to evolve and develop their offerings to meet the changing demands of clients in the future. So it was with great interest I read about Auckland recruitment firm Razzbri launching…

All That Glitters Isn’t Recruitment Gold

Recruiters must evolve. That's the mantra getting chanted with ever increasing volume around the blogs, speaking circuits and self serving espousals of supposed thought leaders of our industry. It's also a mantra I have subscribed to, and championed myself, for a number of years now. But has it got us…

What 2015 Has in Store for New Zealand Recruitment*

Today is the first day of 2015 that I've managed to bring myself to wear shoes. It's not that I've decided to kick 2015 off by plunging into previously uncharted depths of unprofessionalism (we have Sean Walters for that), more that now I'm entering my tenth year living in New…

Don’t Talk To Me About Recruitment Algorithms

The word "algorithm" still makes me shudder, even 25 years on from when I reached my limit in the mathematics field. I've always found basic maths pretty easy and managed to complete GCSE Maths (UK version of NCEA level 1...I think...) in a year rather than the usual two, getting…

LinkedIn Almost Got Smart

We've heard plenty of commentary recently about how LinkedIn are revolutionising the way companies recruit and their recent conference fueled those flames of perceived disruptive innovation even more. No doubt the Australasian Talent Conference currently happening in Sydney will pour more kerosene on those flames (probably along with declarations that…

NZ Budget 2014: Three Key Areas for Recruiters to Consider

It's almost two years to the day that I blogged about the surging Australian economy, their painfully tight labour market, booming agency recruitment desks and snake-charmer enticement of kiwi recruiters to cross the ditch to enjoy recruitment in the promised land. How the tables have turned. Following the Aussie's release…

No Room for Recruitment in Workforce Planning

I've been to quite a few recruitment and sourcing related conferences over recent years but this week saw something a bit more progressive, more technical perhaps, hit our shores. Trevor Vas and his merry band of talent futurists and thought leaders, better known in our industry for the annual Australasian…

New Zealand’s Digital Recruitment Revolution Kicks Off

I've often bemoaned the short-sighted behaviour of old school recruiters in stubbornly flogging away at print media, misinformed cold calls and command-and-control KPI management. But this week it's time to take a look at those recruiters out there who are pushing the boundaries, dragging recruitment into the digital future and…

Breakfast at Bernie’s Points to Recruitment Surge Ahead

It's been a fairly eventful week for stories related to recruitment. What with Indian restaurants brazenly flouting employment discrimination laws by stipulating that only females may apply for jobs there, followed by an obvious publicity stunt from a trendy Ponsonby bar looking to do the same. We've had a CEO…

Just One Recruitment Prediction for 2014

So here we are then. The final Whiteboard post of 2013. In the past I've joined in the seasonal bandwagon of crystal ball gazing to predict recruitment trends but this year I'm not sure I can really be bothered. I hope you don't mind. It's partly because I'm heading over…
