📣 Calling all Founders and Business Leaders 📣 We totally appreciate that diving into the world of diversity and inclusion can feel a little overwhelming, especially when you're focused on scaling your business. That's why we've made things super simple and have created an easy to use EDI (Equity, Diversity and Inclusion) Scorecard, specifically designed help our Founders and Business leaders diversify your team with confidence. 👏🏻 (See the link the comments) It removes any guesswork, provides clear, actionable insights that'll make things a lot easier and allows you to assess where you are and what areas need improvement. But why does it matter? Because a more diverse team brings: 💡Better team dynamics 💡More creative solutions  💡Greater market reach And of course if you need some help with creating more diverse pools of candidates to consider for the roles that you're hiring for, we're Hera to help! 🚀

The average job tenure in the U.S. is 3.9 years per job in 2024, according to BLS. In 2022, it was 4.1 years per job. In 2020, it was 4.1 years per job. In 2018, it was 4.2 years per job. My best guess is that number will continue to reduce with mass layoffs becoming more and more common. Before you reject someone for being a "job hopper", take a look at the statistics to understand that times are changing. Sure, would be great to see every applicant working at each of their roles for 5+ years with continuous linear growth at each company, but that's not reality anymore. P.S. If you are someone in a role that impacts hiring, and your average job tenure is below the national average, let's not bash someone else for being in the same situation. P.P.S. Shout-out to all of my hiring teams at PDW! We are hiring! 🤘

"they're a job hopper" is probably worst assumption hiring teams can make about a potential candidate. Times are changing. Hiring processes and preconceptions should adapt too.

My daughter (pictured here with some strange old bloke) is a grafter and has been working Saturday jobs since she was 14. Her seasonal Saturday job at Paultons Park ends at Christmas, so she was looking for some part time work until Paultons reopens in the spring. She applied for 18 jobs on Indeed. Can you guess how many companies even sent her an email to acknowledge they had received her application? NOT A SINGLE ONE. That's the sad state of the hiring market at the moment. At just 17 years old, my daughter is already incredibly cynical about applying for advertised jobs. The good news is that, if you're a company that's hiring, you don't have to do very much to stand out against the competition. Just responding to applications puts you ahead of most of your competitors. The hiring market has become incredibly impersonal, so this is an area where small businesses really do have an advantage. Respond to applications quickly. Speak to people early in the process. By just doing these things, you will be way ahead of almost every other company.

UP CLOSE & PERSONAL ~ Here are some fun facts about me! - I don't feel myself if I go a month without traveling. - Please have a seat for this one, I don't like coffee or chocolate. - I come from a large family, 5 brothers and 2 sisters. - Cleaning and organizing help me gather my thoughts. - When I feel my brain melting, I walk and meditate. - I HATE last-minute plans (I'm not coming, sorry not sorry). - Personal development and cooking are my favorite hobbies. - Every morning (unless it rains ~ sugar melts), I walk 2 miles to start my day. - I'm an older sibling (born to be a VA). - My laugh is not only loud but infectious. - I get my best ideas after 10:00 PM I share posts like this because when you hire me, you're hiring ME. Finding the right fit for both you and me is top priority. I've worked with clients where the connection just wasn't there, and it simply doesn't work. I don't want clients who are just looking for any VA; I want clients who are excited to hire Shawntil The VA.
