Advanced Resource Managers’ Post

Are you looking at all of these "Hire a Veteran Day" posts and getting FOMO? 😱 Brooksource can help with that! In the mean time, if you are looking for a quick fix as a Recruiter or Hiring Manager, you can actually start today by asking different questions in your applications and interviews. ➡️If you get a veteran applicant and don't understand why they are transitioning from military HR to civilian IT, ask them "Were you selected for your military role or did you choose it?" Not everyone has a choice over which military job they get. ➡️If you don't see the correlation between 2629 - Signals Intelligence / Electromagnetic Warfare Technician on their resume and what you need for your Network Technician role, ask them "What transferrable skills did you gain in the military for this role?" ➡️If you think it's weird that they have led hundreds of employees and been responsible for millions of dollars in equipment but are learning how to code and applying for an associate level role, ask them "What are you looking for in your next career?" You don't have to know every job, every skillset, every acronym to be an ally or advocate. Being open to asking better questions may be enough for you to not have FOMO for next years National Hire A Veteran Day 😉 #HireAVeteranDay #NationalHireAVeteranDay #Interview #Military #Veteran #Brooksource #ProjectPatriot #Recruiter

Speaking at the Labour Party Conference yesterday, Defence Secretary John Healey announced a new recruitment drive aimed at attracting tech-savvy Britons, particularly gamers, to join the military. With a shortage of drone pilots and the increasing importance of tech expertise in modern warfare, this initiative highlights the changing nature of defence and security. Healey revealed that the UK has faced over 90,000 attempted cyber-attacks on its defence systems in the last two years, further underscoring the need for cutting-edge talent. By scrapping outdated policies that previously prevented people from signing up – including restrictions around hayfever and eczema – the military is widening the pool of potential recruits. Those with skills honed in the gaming world could now be pivotal in roles such as drone operation, where console-like precision is invaluable. At Morson, we see this as part of a broader shift across the sectors we work in, including aerospace, engineering, and defence. As the demand for tech skills continues to grow, particularly in areas like cybersecurity and drone piloting, we are committed to connecting individuals with the opportunities that make the most of their unique abilities. We’re proud to be at the forefront of these changes, helping industries adapt to the evolving landscape of modern technology and defence.

You've hired the wrong one...! We've all done it, got recruitment wrong and made a bad hire - bad for the company and bad for the candidate... So where does it go wrong...? Imagine, someone wants to join the Parachute Regiment, the Royal Marines or SAS... Do they send in a CV, do a ZOOM interview with Kevin in HR, and get asked about moving Mt Fuji, or what their No 1 weakness is...? Of course not... To join the elite forces you don't have to know how to shoot, march, fight, drive a tank or jump out of a plane... They will teach these skills to candidates with the right attitude, grit, fitness and determination... In business the opposite is too often true... People get hired because they have qualifications, experience or certification... They wear the same suit as everyone else, have executive hair and weak handshakes... And if they have pink hair, piercings or tattoos, they don't get past first cut... No one worries about attitude, personality, work ethic or fitness to carry out the role... I built a recruitment business in the UK, and making sure people had the best attitude and fit for the role was key to our success, and theirs... How did we do this...? 1. Build in a couple of Brown M&M clauses... 2. Check response times and timekeeping... 3. Courtesy to receptionist and taxi driver... 4. Check pressure responses... 5. Add a couple of hurdles and see if they jump or go round... Better for the candidate, the client and our success rates... Ask me how for more details... Of course, it depends on the role and yes if it's a driving job they'll need a licence...😀 Everyone says hire on attitude, but in reality they hire on a dodgy CV and Kevins' instinct instead...😀 PS - sorry to any Kevins' in HR... #Recruitment #kevin

RECRUITER A person whose job is to enlist or enroll people as employees, in the armed forces, or as members of an organization. But let’s be real—being a recruiter goes way beyond that dry dictionary definition. It’s not just about signing people up or filling roles. It’s about making real connections and guiding folks toward careers that truly resonate with them. I’ve been doing this long enough to know that it’s not about my commission check; it’s about understanding people’s dreams, their worries, and helping them find a path that matters. Because when it comes down to it, we're in the people business, and that’s something I take seriously. What’s the most rewarding part of being a recruiter for you? Let’s hear it! #Recruiting #PeopleBusiness #CareerGuidance #FulfillingCareers #MadeInAmerica

One of the hardest things to do in life is figure out what you want to be when you grow up, no matter what time in your life. The first part is figuring out what you want to do, and to Michael Quinn's point, the second part is figuring out what job fits with what you want to do. Its easy to speak in job titles or generalities, but harder to pin down what you really want or what the job really is.
