Candidates! The end of year is not the easiest to identify that awesome job but, those who are hiring are very serious. You’ll see a ton of advice about navigating the market. A ton of it is bs from those who think they control the situation so two things I think you can do to take control: 1. Always - ALWAYS - ask if there is an internal candidate and if so, what would an external candidate bring that the internal candidate won’t based on the needs of the position. If you get a bs answer, withdraw. 2. Contact someone who recently left the organization and department and ask why they left. They’ll likely be very honest. Don’t be made to feel like it’s some privilege to talk to a company. You’re the rockstar - rock. #opentowork #takecontrol #cutthroughthebs

🌟 Embrace Opportunity: Rethinking 'Open to Work' 🌟 Let's shift the narrative around 'Open to Work' on LinkedIn! It's not about desperation or being out of demand—it's a bold declaration of readiness for the next big thing in our careers. Rather than judging, let's celebrate this openness to new opportunities and support each other's journey. Together, let's redefine what it means to be 'Open to Work' and embrace the endless possibilities it brings! 💼✨ #OpenToWork #CareerJourney #EmbraceOpportunity What's your Thought?? 🤔💭

5️⃣ Five years ago, I said yes to turning around a troubled program. 💪 Our team accomplished A TON over those years: ‣ Increased program services by 400%. ‣ *Safely* thrived during the global pandemic. ‣ Hired ONLY representative and qualified staff. ‣ Met and surpassed nationally recognized metrics. ‣ Acquired and maintained state regulatory compliance. 🛫 Now, I'm ready for what’s next. ‣ Who do you know? ‣ Where do you see me? ‣ What leads do you have? #opentowork #workwell

Always darkly amusing when a publicly-traded tech company’s mass layoffs are rewarded with an upswing in its stock price. What massive layoffs at a very large tech company tell me as an investor is, “Be skeptical when we tell you we’re growing, because we are probably overestimating that projection the same way we overestimated our workforce needs.” As for smaller tech companies, it’s more a sign that they’ve decided to clean the floor after seeing what *didn’t* stick to the wall after some desperate managerial flinging— i.e., it was harder to expand our midmarket/MSP footprint than senior management said it would be, or that “strategic alliance with <insert big tech OEM>” was way more interesting to us than to them.

Friendly reminder that the #opentowork badge means exactly that. Nothing more. Nothing less. In 2024, let's make it a goal to have more compassion for the human experience, and judge less the conditions of why a candidate is communicating their search for employment publicly on the internet. At the end of the day, 250,000 people have been out of work this year alone through layoffs. Candidate enablement is the future of hiring. And that starts with empathy. #futureofwork #jobsearchtips #resumetips _____________________________ 👋 Hi, I'm Brando, startup recruiter. 🌎 My mission is to empower the candidate<>employer relationship in the future of work. ➡️ If you're a founder, I know your next 3x engineer.

"The best candidates don't take 3+ months to land a new role" - this was a post I read on here over the weekend. Here's a reminder of how crazy the last 4 years have been: ✅ We had the Covid-19 pandemic. ✅ There were near-WW III events. ✅ Over 500,000 people have been laid off in the tech space since 2022. On the other side of things, maybe you: 1️⃣ Are a new/single parent, and needed some time with your kid(s). 2️⃣ Got sick/needed to care for someone who is/was sick. 3️⃣ Wanted to travel. 4️⃣ Wanted a break after what has been a hectic 4-5 year period. Taking time off between roles does not affect your capacity to do your job. #hiring #jobsearching #opentowork
