As EVP of Joss Search, New York, I have two core goals:   1. Become the go-to recruiter for business support roles in our sector 2. Ensure Joss Search New York is an incredible place to work   Last week, we threw a birthday bash for our 'fire extinguisher', Katie! She adopted that name as the one who always stays cool under pressure. A great trait for a temp recruiter! 😎 Starting a business in a new market and country is a wild ride. As recruiters, we can only control so much since we're dealing with people, who can be unpredictable! That’s why it's important to celebrate the wins along the way.   I’m a big believer that nailing the small stuff sets us up for the big victories. It's the same with teams – you've got to look out for each other, hold each other to the highest standard, and celebrate individual successes, in order to build a strong sense of care and belonging. I'm so proud that this has earned us an NPS score of 86 - considered world-class! 🏆 Happy and high-performing teams usually go hand in hand, so although you've got to put in the work to be successful, it's equally as important to remember to have fun along the way! Happy birthday, Champ!

It's almost unbelievable that we are into the 8th month of 2024 already. In January, I interviewed our then outgoing CEO, Peter Irish and his successor, Marion Engelke who made some predictions for the the executive job market and offered insights into the future and the past. Did they have a magic ball? Uncover more in "The Year In Review And A Full Look Ahead": https://lnkd.in/dMjp_CK2 #careerchange #thebarrettgroup #executives

Crazy the places Hubble on demand can take you. We were back in London, under the same roof as my previous employer, where I got to catch up with my old teammate Tom Webster! Also got to throw a few darts with Jonny Gabriel, though I don’t think we'll be playing in Ally Palley anytime soon… It's unreal to think about Luke Littler, who defied the odds to win the Premier League Darts despite his age and lack of experience. His victory shows how talent and skill can outshine traditional metrics like experience and degrees. Similar to a skills-based approach to hiring, which focuses on what candidates can do rather than their past roles or education. By valuing skills and potential, we can discover and nurture exceptional talent that might otherwise be overlooked. 'Checkout' the comments to learn more about skills based hiring. #HR #skills
