Remote, hybrid, or on-site? That is the question that all of us can't let go of after the pandemic. And it's obvious why: all models have their advantages, and besides, the preferences of companies and employees often differ. But let's compare whether there is some shift towards one particular model, comparing 2022 and 2023. #rocksgold gathered the data from job postings published on different job boards across the globe. #Tuesday_Insights 

This information is critical for making strategic decision for businesses who aim to optimize their productivity.

Wondering what the 'best jobs' of 2024 are? A new report from Indeed includes a number of reasons for the highest rankings: 10% of listings must include flexibility, in the form of including either hybrid or remote in its descriptions. As well, growth in opportunities (meaning a higher percentage of available positions), and its overall share of total open jobs were also considered.

As we kick into the 2nd work week of 2024 (for most), it’s that time of year when we sit down and start writing our ‘goals’ for the year. One of my professional goals for 2024 is to build stronger relationships with my clients. To do this I often talk to my clients about the idea of exclusivity. This idea is something many companies will shy away from due to fear of ‘missing out on candidates’ if they don’t have multiple agencies sourcing. (the good old spray and pray). This year why not look at partnering with one recruitment agency? The idea that the more agencies a business uses to recruit for a role the more talent they will have to choose from is a redundant concept. Studies have shown that the oversaturation we see for the same job in the market as well as the anonymity in fact puts potential talent off applying. Perhaps look at Partnering exclusively with your preferred agency who can take the time to know and understand your company's needs. Then sit back and reap the benefits of this relationship saving yourself from: -         Time consuming co-ordination -         Inconsistency -         Overlapping candidate submissions -         Difficulty building strong relationships -         Conflicting information -         Tracking your communication I am looking forward to what 2024 is going to bring for my candidates, clients and colleagues.

Sharing with my #BusinessContinuity, #Resiliency, and #CrisisManagement network. The data findings below are quite interesting.... Here are some of my takeaways. Thoughts? The surge in fully remote work between 2022 and 2023 was driven by the significant demand for resiliency professionals, alongside organizations opting to retain remote work as a popular choice to attract new talent. Organizations are now transitioning employees back to the office but are (fortunately) favoring flexibility, with employees expected to be in the office 2-3 days/ week. I'm anticipating that the data point for 100% remote work will continue to decline while the data point for 40-80% in the office will rise. How will this transition affect... * Job seekers: If you're limited to remote work only, you'll need to be particularly innovative in showcasing your marketability and expanding your network. Remote-only positions are highly competitive due to the significantly larger candidate pool compared to on-site/hybrid roles. * Hiring managers: If you're constrained to on-site or hybrid arrangements, you'll also need to employ creativity in your job postings and recruitment strategies, as well as consider candidates who may not meet all of your requirements. Please comment. I'd love to hear everyone's thoughts. Please feel free to reach out to me anytime with questions. As always I'm delighted to assist. 😊

🔍 Refining Hiring Priorities for Q4 As we step into Q4, it's the perfect time for clients to reassess and fine-tune their hiring strategies. 📝 With the ever-shifting job market, identifying key priorities can make a significant difference. 1. **Quality Over Quantity** ✅ Focus on attracting candidates with the right skill sets and cultural fit. This ensures long-term productivity and reduces turnover rates. ✅ Consider using skills assessments and behavioural interviews to gauge a candidate's suitability effectively. 2. **Flexible Working Arrangements** ✅ Hybrid and remote work models are still highly valued.
