The Uncertain Future for Recruitment Agencies

I've had a number of reasons to ponder the future of recruitment this week, particularly on the agency side, and it's been a week of incredible conflicts. This time of year is always a time for introspection, as things wind down a bit towards Christmas, and the general sense I…

#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…

Sir Graham Henry Embraces Recruitment

Those of you browsing these pages this week for updates, commentary and salacious gossip around the awarding of the All-of-Government recruitment contract will be sorely disappointed. Surely you are all aware that the MBIE "would just like to remind you of the continued requirement as to confidentiality and commercial sensitivity…

Olympics Security Shambles Reveals the Fallacy of “Talent Pooling”

As Sir Alex Ferguson might say, it's "sqweaky bum time" in the New Zealand recruitment agency world as firms of all shapes and sizes await the MED Procurement team's decision of who to award panel places on the all of Government recruitment contract. Meanwhile, on the other side of the…

I was going to write a post this week that followed up on last week's runaway train blog on the All of Government e-tender. An obvious topic to cover would have been to put to the floor the vigorous debate that has sprung up around price versus quality in recruitment…

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…

Recruitment Ad Chasing 101

This week is blog post number 101 on The Whiteboard and funnily enough I bring to you some recruitment 101 advice about ad chasing. Over six months ago I wrote a piece on new ways for agency recruiters to p*ss off internal recruiters when we came across something even worse…

Can We Bring Recruiters Hub to New Zealand?

Here I am again just 7 months after the last time. Sydney Koru Club lounge, bashing out a hastily compiled Whiteboard post, following another brilliantly-executed conference by Philip Tusing from Destination Talent. Recruiter's Hub 2012 opened with a flourish with the quick-talking Californian tones of HR Marketing oligarch Kevin Grossman. …

Recruiters, Get Your Heads Out Of The Sand And Embrace The Future

The squeeze is on. Recruitment agencies are doing it tough right now. The entire recruitment landscape post-recession has changed and for many it is a weird moonscape causing a great deal of displacement and discomfort. January was a particularly sluggish month for recruitment with many key client decision-makers taking virtually the whole (rain-soaked)…

What Internal Recruiters Really Want From Agencies

Nice to see so many of you at the SEEK bash at Auckland Art Gallery last night. An interesting venue that certainly went a long way to refining the more debauched hedonism of the SEEK Annual Recruitment Awards at the tail end of 2011 (sadly). And who says we recruiters are…
