When hiring, it’s easy to focus solely on what you need right now. But here’s the truth: after one year, your new hire will grow, evolve, and bring new skills to the table. ?? That’s why the real question is: ?? What do I need this person to accomplish in their first year? This mindset shifts your hiring approach from just filling a role to solving a problem and driving value toward key KPIs. It’s not just about the candidate’s resume—it’s about their ability to contribute to your team’s mission and grow with your business. When you’re pitching a role to candidates, think beyond the job description: ? What will their first year look like? ? How will their work impact the business? ? What opportunities will they have to develop and make a difference? Hiring is about potential and purpose. By painting a clear picture of their first year, you’re not just filling a seat—you’re building a future. ?? #HiringForGrowth #TalentAcquisition #RecruitmentTips #CareerDevelopment #TeamBuilding #EmployeeSuccess #KPIFocused #FutureOfWork

Ever thought about making a career move that wasn't just about the money? Sometimes, the factors that truly matter go far beyond the paycheck. ????We're currently recruiting a candidate in Albuquerque, New Mexico, who is making a bold decision. He’s leaving a job that pays $210,000 a year with a 2-hour commute for a new role just 15 minutes from home. The catch? He's taking a $75,000 pay cut. Why? Because he wants to be there for his 6-year-old who's just starting sports and activities. He's missed the first five years, and now, time with family is priceless. ????? In the end, it’s not always about the dollar signs. Flexibility, work-life balance, and spending time with loved ones can be worth more than any salary increase. What’s a non-monetary reason that pushed you to change jobs? Share your story below – we’d love to hear the choices that mattered to you! ?? Thank you Robert Hartline and Eric Jackson for bringing me on to The Decision podcast by EO Nashville! #CareerChange #WorkLifeBalance #PrioritiesMatter #BeyondThePaycheck #FamilyFirst

One of the biggest reasons employees leave is because of their relationship with their direct manager. For a recruiting team, going beyond just technical skills and diving into the culture is invaluable. How are managers connecting with their team in ways that make employees feel truly valued and supported? It’s about understanding the “why” behind departures and seeing how meaningful leadership and genuine connections can shape an employee's experience. Building that sense of rapport and belonging is what keeps a team engaged, fulfilled, and inspired to stay.
