About
In 2009 CEO and founder Kim Seeling Smith started Ignite Global after deciding that instead of being paid to put bums in seats (working as a recruiter for the 15 years prior to that) she wanted to help More

I loved this article about the things companies get wrong when writing job descriptions. I only disagree with their first point. A long job description/job ad isnโt necessarily a bad thing. Iโve helped clients write very lengthy but VERY compelling job descriptions that vividly describes the company culture and values, outlines what the prospective candidate can achieve in the role and what they need to bring to the table (innate abilities and strengths) to be successful.

If you think #thegreatresignation is related to Covid or the current skills shortage, think again. This graph from the Bureau of Labor Statistics clearly shows that, with the exception of 2020, people have been changing jobs in increasing numbers since 2009. While this is a US stat, I believe the trend is definitely global.
Iโve often said that Covid accelerated other workforce trends that had been building for years. I think what we see with this graph is the result of...
Iโm curious, what has your experience been with implicit bias training?
Having spent 15 years working as a professional recruiter and 11 years teaching hiring managers how to hire more effectively and efficiently Iโve always felt that implicit bias training was a waste of time.
There is more and more research now backing up my gut feel. Here are two articles that unpack this pretty nicely.
Even worse, there is consistent evidence that bias training done the โwrong wayโ (think lukewarm diversity training) can actually have the opposite impact, inducing anger and frustration among white employees. What this all means is that, despite the widespread calls for implicit bias training, it will likely be ineffective at best; at worst, itโs a poor use of limited resources that could cause more damage and exacerbate the very issues it is trying to solve.

My Facebook memories told me that 1 year ago today was my first appearance on Nineโs Today Show. Georgie and I had a spirited discussion about the older workforce. I was optimistic back then. I was FINALLY seeing some cracks in our decades old discrimination against older workers.
Not so much anymore. Iโve read recent stories that Ageism is still alive and well and increasing in our new COVID environment.
Iโd love your thoughts. What do you see?
If youโre over 50, what do you find? What are your plans for the future? Remain in full time work, do contract work, side hustle? Start your own business?
