I’ve known lots of HR folks
during my career: people who have transitioned from one job to other successful
endeavors. I see them at various events and am always amazed and inspired to find
how passionate they remain about doing important work. Last week I was at a talent
acquisition conference: more than most things in this profession, recruiting
has been affected by advances in technology, regulations, and changing
demographics. But what hasn’t changed is
the importance of a candidate’s experience. My buddy Gerry spent the majority
of his career at a big consumer products company and then went on to creating
metrics for an awards program for best practices in recruiting. He’s been a
one-man force for getting the biggest and best companies to understand the
importance of candidate experiences on successful recruiting: it’s a cause
bigger than himself and continues to excite him every day. Find the thing that puts
lots of energy in your career today.
