The Robot-Proof Recruiter 📙

When Art Zeile, CEO of DHI Group, Inc. decided to distribute to Dice and ClearanceJobs people 2 of my favorite books on #talentacquisition written by 2 of my favorite buddies, Katrina Collier and Carmen Hudson, CSM – so they can better understand the leading principles in Talent Acquisition. 📖More book recommendations to come!

Katrina Collier chats live with me to talk writing for business and her recently completed memoir, "The Damage of Words: a Memoir of Healing Self-Hate and Gaining Self-Mastery" - there's a great deal to talk about! -- Live-streamed to FB, LinkedIn, and YouTube and then, available on-demand whevever you listen to your favorite podcast.-- Professionally, Katrina Collier is on a mission to end the collaboration issues between recruiters and hiring managers, creating clunky recruitment processes and a poor candidate experience. She delivers design-thinking workshops to managers or talent acquisition to swiftly uncover and solve the real issues preventing successful hiring. She is also a global keynote speaker, and author of The Robot-Proof Recruiter: A Survival Guide for Recruiting and Sourcing Professionals and the upcoming book Reboot Hiring: The Key To Managers and Leaders Saving Time, Money and Hassle When Recruiting, Personally, Katrina has recently written The Damage of Words: A Memoir of Healing Self-Hate and Gaining Self-Mastery. She hopes that by openly sharing how she overcame narcissistic child abuse and healed Complex-PTSD, and her experiences healing this life, past lives, DNA and generational trauma, people will feel inclined to seek help and will take a step towards a happier future.

It's Valentine's Day and today, I'd like to declare my love of books! 📚 (sorry Danielle Wood you're great too) As someone who didn't take the typical education route and never made it to Uni (I decided to go into sales halfway through college) books have been such an incredible source of knowledge and development for me, helping me become who I am both personally and professionally! ⭐ One thing I've struggled to find are reputable titles focused on TA and recruitment, other than The Robot-Proof Recruiter (Book) which was AWESOME - kudos Katrina Collier! I'd love to hear recommendations from my network - please share below 🧠 Some honorable mentions below (outside of TA/rec) that I'd 100% personally recommend for life and business. - Your Next Five Moves (Master The Art Of Business Strategy) 💼  - Atomic Habits 🔥 - The Chimp Paradox 🐒 - Meditations (Marcus Aurelius) 🙏🏼 - Mastery 🏆

Most exciting package alert! THIS arrived today ❤️ Katrina Collier I can’t wait to start reading 🥰

It is sad when people give The Robot-Proof Recruiter (Book) 2 stars because Amazon damaged it in transit! This only impacts the author. 😢 My new publisher explained that Amazon receives 50% of what you pay for each book from a traditional publisher. And the Author (usually) receives 10% of the other 50% that the publisher receives - something called net receipts. So for a £20 book: Amazon gets £10, the publisher £9 and the Author just £1. Something to ponder before giving any book a 💩 rating because the retailer damaged it - especially when it is easy to request a replacement! #recruitment #talentacquisition #recruiters

What's in my recruitment #Zeitgeist? (definition below) We don't know what's REAL anymore! Thoughts offered for Day 4 of #MeetYourRecruiter week from Recruiting Gym - home of recruitment training So AI is the big talk in the recruitment industry and may define the era as we adapt to this digital revolution. So we are all formulating our AI strategy: Will we decide whether to reject AI in favour of a bespoke craftsman-type approach? OR go all in with AI for maximum efficiency? OR take a hybrid approach using AI to automate some processes while maintaining a personal touch??? However, put in a backdrop of fake news, and a lack of trust in politics and business, a wider issue is that we don't know what's real anymore. So my thought is that people are craving humanity and authenticity in their relationships. Also, that people are choosing their products, services and partnerships on a values-driven basis and with social and environmental factors in mind. So with this in mind I'm going to filter my plans through the lense of my personal values of courage, creativity and compassion and the Macstaff company values of Expertise, Integrity and Commitment. Where AI is compatible with this it will be used as a tool where it doesn't it won't! Thinking this through motivated me to pull out a great personal development book from my shelf. If you want to future-proof yourself as a Recruiter, read The Robot Proof Recruiter by Katrina Collier who walks the talk values wise and is donating her share of royalties to Hope for Justice and Slave-Free Alliance to change lives of the most vulnerable street children! PEACE, Ant Zeitgeist definition: "The defining spirit or mood of an era"
