When hiring IT candidates in 2024, think of it as fishing in a pond, not a sea. 🎣 Casting lines in the same pond at the same time leads to crossed lines, wasted time, and no successful catches. 🐟 Let's keep it simple: fewer fishermen get the job done effectively, and too many fishermen are just going to cross lines. dan@acuityconsultants.jobs Acuity Consultants #Recruitment #HiringStrategies

Our June Employee spotlight is Yohennes Gehbreaman! With 8 years at PECI, Yohennes has grown from Maintenance Foreman to General Underground Foreman. He's an incredible mentor in our underground division and a true team player who's always ready to help. His commitment to his crews, whom he considers family, is unmatched. We interviewed Yohennes with a lightning round of ten questions about his time with Professional Excavators: - How long have you worked at PE? I have worked at PE for 8 years. - How long have you worked in the industry? 16 years - How did you begin your career in construction? I started as a Laborer working with an underground crew, and worked my way up the ladder. - What accomplishment are you most proud of? I left my home country of Eritrea in 2000 for the dream of a better opportunity and life. It was a hard and long travel to get here and I would say that it was probably one of the proudest accomplishments of my life. Being able to make it all the way to Canada, meet my amazing wife and starting our wonderful family. - What's one thing you wish people knew about your job? I don't think people really know how critical my job can be, if our crew was to hit a feeder main. It could literally flood a neighborhood or downtown Calgary in a matter of minutes. - What do you find most enjoyable about working at PE? The people that I work with have become part of my family. It makes it enjoyable to come to work everyday and be with good people. - What's the most intriguing project you've worked on while working for PE? Just recently I was able to work on the new Calgary Event Center and the City of Calgary inspector had said that in the 30 years he had been doing this line of work, he had not seen an install with that degree of difficulty. The crew worked very hard and was able to pull it off incident free and on time. - What career goal are you currently working on? My goal is to keep the team safe and promote a healthy work environment that my crew enjoy coming to work each day. - If you could trade jobs with anyone in the company for a day, who would it be and why? I would like to be Candace for a day so I could play with all of the company's money!! Haha Just joking, I enjoy what I do and I prefer the position I hold with the company. - Share something unexpected about yourself that your coworkers may not know? I am happily married to my wife Miriam for 14 years and we have 3 children: Kayden 11 years old, Eliora 10 years old, Benaiah 4 years and currently working on the 4th. #ProfessionalExcavatorsandConstruction #Safety #EmployeeSpotlight #Underground #Earthworks #GeneralContracting #Concrete #SiteServices #Asphaltpaving #Environmental #AlbertaConstruction #CalgaryConstruction #Construction

Goldfish: Not Just a 5-Second Memory 🐟 There's a popular myth that goldfish have a memory span of just 5 seconds, once part of a comedy sketch by Jasper Carrott "oh look, there's a castle", showing my age 😂. This couldn't be further from the truth. As someone who's always fascinated by how we perceive and understand the world, I find it intriguing to debunk such misconceptions. Goldfish can actually remember things for up to several months! 🧠 Studies have shown that these aquatic creatures can be trained to perform tricks, remember feeding times, and even recognise their owners. This myth is a great reminder of how we often underestimate the abilities of living creatures. It's similar to how some people perceive recruitment - thinking it's just about matching CV's to job descriptions. But just like goldfish, it's so much more complex and nuanced. At White Space, we dive deep into understanding both our candidates and clients. We listen, connect, and challenge to ensure the best fit. If you want to know more about how we work, feel free to visit our website or give us a call. I'm keen to hear your thoughts on what other myths you've come across in your field.

It's National Handshake Day! I greet every applicant who walks in my door with smile and a handshake. At times, it seems confusing to the other person and I wonder if handshakes are not something that happens in business anymore or if it's just my location. 🤔 Anyway, I think a good handshake helps to assess a person's confidence. I've read: The "Dead Fish": A limp handshake conveys lack of interest. The "Bone Crusher": Nobody enjoys a painful handshake. The "Pump": Avoid repeatedly pumping the other person's hand. In a job hunt, a confident handshake, along with your skills and experience, can help you land the job! 😀 Which handshake do you hate the most? Before a couple of weeks ago, I'd have said the Dead Fish but I got a total Bone Crusher not that long ago and my hand still hurts from it! 😗
