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…

Robert Half’s Utopian Recruitment Bubble

A couple of weeks ago a video from Customise Consulting caused a bit of a stir on this blog with its amusingly provocative jabs towards the traditional, corporate, recruitment agency model. This week I came across another video about being a recruitment consultant, but this one is actually from one…

Speedy Recruiting and Casual Hook-Ups: A Valentine’s Day Blog

Welcome to another Friday and another Whiteboard blog post. But this isn't any old Friday, oh no. This particular Friday happens to also be Valentine's Day. Many an illicit office kiss will be stolen under some recruitment mistletoe at Friday night drinks later, I'm sure. Also taking advantage of the…

What Has Become of us Recruitment Agencies?

What has become of us recruitment agencies? I'm sure that, once upon a time, the concept of recruitment as a professional service was lauded.

It’s Not the Size of the Billings That Counts…

Mark Twain once said "It's not the size of the dog in the fight, it's the size of the fight in the dog". This is a well-worn mantra that is well worth recruitment leaders bearing in mind as they look to grow their consulting teams in 2014. But not in…

The Economy Gets Fixed (Term)

this week's whiteboard is brought to you from the indignantly furrowed brow of Sean Walters while your regular blogger battles pesky leeches on the Central Coast bush walks of NSW... The word round the camp fire is that 2014 has started with the recruiting gusto that every January has promised,…

Are you Ready for Recruitment in 2014?

Hi all and welcome back to a shiny new year of recruiting japes and general shenanigans. Happy New Year etc. Nice break? Good. Now let's get on with things. I usually kick the new year off with a Whiteboard post suggesting some "dusting off" and "gearing up" and "easing back…

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…

The Increasing Desperation of Struggling Recruiters

I received a phone call this week from a regular Whiteboard reader in a rather grumpy mood. He wondered if a recent spat he had been engaged in could be aired here on the blog to garner some opinion and hopefully generate some useful debate. I thought it was a…

What One Million kiwis on LinkedIn means for Recruitment

Two press releases this week seem to suggest that we in New Zealand have hit some kind of purple patch in the social networking and social recruiting stakes. In the well-versed role of plucky underdog we so enjoy playing, it's like all our noise and bluster in this area has…
