#HappyHolidays #LinkedInCommunity 🎉 Let's dive into a real talk about #jobhunting —sometimes, it feels like an uphill battle, especially when: 1. You're a perfect match for the role. 2. Your schedule aligns with the global nature of work. 3. You're no stranger to collaborating across different geographies. 4. Remote work is second nature to you. BUT: 1. The right roles demand a specific location for legal reasons, even if it's a remote position. 2. Your extensive experience doesn't always trump the need for someone physically in a certain place. 3. Inclusion promises clash with automated disqualifications based on race or location quirks. Let's break the cycle! Others have thrived when given a chance, proving the 24-hour global economy is real. Let's ensure our hiring practices reflect that. 🌐 Remote Hiring Realities we need to consider: 1. Embrace autonomy across borders. 2. Expand time zone ranges for a fairer hiring process. 3. Be both the cook and the oven—let your organization be a testing ground for passionate individuals as opposed to letting others risk it and then offering the poach after they did the dirty work for you. 4. Prioritize skill and value over location biases for a more inclusive workplace. 5. Shift the focus from cost to the real impact of skills in the hiring equation. As you unwrap your gifts, physical or otherwise, remember there's still much to unpack, unlearn, and rework in shaping the future of work. Cheers to a more inclusive and forward-thinking workforce! 🌟 #FutureOfWork #InclusiveHiring #GlobalEconomy #remote #remotework
