Columbus Metropolitan Library’s Post

You may have seen my post asking people to share what generation they are and what their very first job was. It was mostly GenXers who responded with a few Millennials and it was clear that most of us had very hands-on/practical jobs, often requiring customer skills. I would love to hear from GenZers or those of you who work with/parent this generation to see if their typical first jobs differ. From the GenXers and Millennials, we had lots of things like: - Shop worker - Waiting tables - Fish & chip shop - Amusements - Cleaning - Babysitting - Fast food These are all things that still exist so who's doing these jobs in the evenings, weekends, over the holidays etc?? Is it young people still? Also, what other/common casual jobs are your seeing your GenZers doing to support their education, save up for holidays, devices etc etc? #GenZ #multigenerational

HR executives, I feel sorry for you. Here's why. 😟 On Sunday, we officially announced the launch of School of Discomfort. And boy oh boy! We have over 1100 applicants in 2 days (& counting) and are currently monitoring the responses to pick only the cream of the cream to join the community. Only 10% of these applicants will make it into the community. We're already scratching our heads about the monitoring process. But for someone who's hiring, I'm sure you get just as many applications for one or two open roles. How do you even do it? 😯 For those new to School of Discomfort- SoD is an exclusive community designed to help men become better versions of themselves. As the name suggests, we foster growth via discomfort in all vital areas of life - like fitness, spirituality, financial literacy, character, career, social life, and more. 🥋 If you wish to join the community, apply here: https://lnkd.in/ewRM_nAW and send a follow-request to this account on IG - https://lnkd.in/e2Q3rfbV

What do you look for when hiring in Children's residential? 🤔 As a recruiter within the social care sector, I engage with children's residential organisations daily, to discuss what they look for in a candidate. Beyond the essential qualifications and experience, empathy stands as a pivotal attribute. The ability to understand and share the emotions of others can elevate a competent carer to greatness, particularly when working with vulnerable children. 🌟 Individuals who are dependable in managing routine care, behaviour management, and safeguarding, as well as those who can collaborate seamlessly with the entire team are just some of the crucial attributes we look for. 🌍 Social care thrives on collaboration, and adaptability is vital for effectively handling crisis intervention and case management. 🔄 What are your thoughts? What might be a deciding factor when deciding between 2 individuals as good as the other on paper? 👇 #socialcare #hiring #teamwork #empathy #recruitment #childrensservices #vulnerablechildren #careersinhealthcare #jobsearch #communitysupport #socialwork

Is it Age Discrimination? YES! It’s clear that customer service has taken a nosedive with these “NEW” hiring apps! Seriously, what more do I need to do? Should I perform splits or backflips? I can do those by the way. Just don’t ask me to juggle. Sports? Count me in; I’ll tackle anything! I make it a point to learn something new every day of my life. The real issue lies within the systems employers use. Some employers take the easy route, already having a candidate in mind, while I’m over here trying to qualify for the Olympics of job applications! Yes, I'm over 50? And that is an issue why? I’m determined to prove that AGE IS JUST A NUMBER, and I will never retire. It is not in my DNA folks!! Age discrimination? Not on my watch! I refuse to let it dictate my abilities. I don’t mean to be disrespectful, but it’s ridiculous to judge someone based on their age. I’ll soon become your competition, if I have to! I’m up to speed on all the latest technology. Why? Because I’m not lazy and I’m just getting started! #OpenToWork #AgeDiscrimination #Employment #Jobs #Technology #Business #Technology #WorkForce #MultiGenerational

Straight to the point✏ Children's Residential Care Providers! Have you got a team of employees who appear to be disengaged and lacklustre❓ Are you #recruiting the right people❓ Are you asking the right questions at interview❓ Are you always making #hiring decisions based on experience and qualifications❓ What's stopping you from giving people an opportunity to join your team from another sector❓ Have you ever wondered what is contributing to the shortage of experienced and qualified staff❓ I'm talking at support worker level rather than management level I understand that there is guidance that needs to be adhered to. However, the staffing crisis doesn't really need to be as difficult as it is. Think about where you started from. Who gave you, your first opportunity❓ What an amazing place to be in when you can now give other's an opportunity when you spot potential and valuable skills. New recruits should show-up with energy, passion, motivation, a keen appetite to learn and to get stuck in. They should have a natural ability to connect with young people. They should want to get the best outcomes for them. This job role isn't for everyone. it takes special people with special abilities to make a difference and transform lives. Just because a candidate has experience or the qualification doesn't make them automatically right for the role or for the young people who are in your care. If your staff are de-motivated and disengaged HOW is this affecting the young people in your care❓ There is a solution 💡 #recruitng #crisis #childrensresidential #care High5 Recruitment info@high5recruitment.co.uk 📲
