If you interview someone for a job and think "they're good but they'd upset the status quo" then should hire them. Hiring "culture fit" will eventually lead to a team full of clones who think and act the same, and when a problem they can't solve comes up all of their ideas will be the same #hiring

Today I woke up with blocked sinuses and a thumping headache. Back in the day it would've meant a phone call to the boss and a day off, but a side effect of #WFH is that my threshold for being "off sick" is higher.
It's a benefit to employers: WFH makes employees more likely to keep working when ill

It is largely true that promoting is cheaper than recruiting. A big part of why is the promoted salary is lower than an external hire's.
But, if you promote every time without external salary benchmarking, you're running a big risk of having an underpaid workforce at risk of being poached #business

My wife was changing our 2-year-old and she had fluff on her foot:
Wife: "What's on your foot?"
Daughter: "My toes"
Me: *Pisses myself laughing*
I'm sure I'm supposed to turn this into some philosophical post but, tbh, I just thought it was funny af and wanted to share it #shitkidssay

Your CV is a sales tool for you, don't waste time and space. I received a CV of which the 1st page was dominated by logos of their certifications at the top, then their personality traits represented by more images, then a series of cogs showing how their knowledge/experience fit.

I decided to play around with generative AI to create something *creative*
The 2 haiku's are akin to what I'd have written for GCSE English and been proud of, the short horror story is pretty close to factual

I saw someone complaining about salespeople wanting an increased base salary as being a red flag.
Ignoring that it isn't (you don't know their financial commitments), I realised that not all the "red flags" people talk about are actually red flags. This goes for both sides in recruitment

"Take the blue pill, the story ends. You continue believing your application was rejected by AI or the recruiter. Take the red pill, you stay in Wonderland. And I tell you that you were rejected by the hiring manager who works in the same field as you and thought your profile was weak." #recruitment

If your reason for leaving your job is money, then take the counteroffer. People will say "but they only appreciated you when you said you were gone" but joining a new company brings uncertainty, your employer has decided replacing you will be difficult and worth paying to avoid.

Hospitals are noisy places with busy clinicians becoming desensitized to alarms. Constant beeping, alarms, ventilators hissing.
Imagine working in that. Tracking meds, checking tests, patient alarms. Ascom is trying to help by designing technology with smart alarms. We're #hiring

WFH debate continues to rumble on, on both sides of the Atlantic, it is important to remember that business owners have ALWAYS resisted labour-sided changes and reforms.
The Factory Act 1833 banned kids under 9 from working and factory owners at the time complained about the economic impact #WFH

Thursday I've a meeting with 6 colleagues based in 4 countries and 3 different timezones due to start over an hour before I start work and after 1 of us finishes. Because the company has a hybrid-first model we will all WFH and adjust our hours. I wouldn't be attending if I were office-based #WFH

A thought arose: is the current trend of AI limited to be online?
The techbros appear to be training their AI models using online content/data and synthetic datasets. However, online behaviours/interactions rarely mimic real-life ones. How does/can AI make the jump to real-world applications? #AI

Social Media has served to highlight how poor media and political literacy is. In the past we only realised how easily swayed and manipulated people were when they were interviewed or elected a numpty. Now we get daily updates from around the world.

If you interviewed for a job last year and got beyond 1st int but missed out, and still want to work for them, now is a good time to ping the recruiter/manager. New budgets/headcount etc being discussed so it's worthwhile being on their radar.

Uncomfortable truth about WFH/Office: if you expect junior/graduate/new employees to be the in the office for training etc then you have to place the same expectation on their manager.

Today I saw a post on SM criticising grads for expecting £28K salaries. Minimum wage is £22K, if you want a grad you pay for it!
Economic literacy levels are shockingly low, people really think a few less lattes and takeaways will bridge the systemic gap of salaries vs house prices/inflation #wages
