On Take the Stage, presented by Haley Marketing, we bring you the BEST speakers, coaches, trainers, and strategic partners from across the staffing and recruiting industry every other week. More than your standard interview, each conversation is built off of a specific session or topic these industry thought leaders bring to conferences and audiences around the country. KEY MOMENTS Technology has made recruiters lazy and caused them to rely too heavily on job boards and technology for candidate sourcing. Recruiters need to balance using technology as a tool and maintaining the human element of recruiting. The fundamentals of a great recruiter include building relationships, effective communication, curiosity, and a focus on delivering what candidates and clients want. Recruiters should plan their work and work their plan, setting goals and metrics to track their progress. The hunt and target recruiting are still essential skills for recruiters. Technology can be used to automate administrative tasks and enhance communication, but the human touch is still crucial in engaging with candidates. Recruiters should be authentic and focus on building relationships rather than just making transactions. Planning, time management, and self-discipline are key to success in recruiting. The industry has become too reliant on technology and needs to get back to the art of the hunt.

Shoot us a Text.It's finally Friday as we cover how European plug-in hybrid technology may guide US regulations, BMW is at it again charging monthly for physical hardware, we cover the data breach affecting BILLIONS, and how Gen Z feels more detached than ever.Show Notes with links:European regulations are driving the development of plug-in hybrids with significantly longer electric ranges, offering a glimpse of what might be coming to the U.S.Some European plug-in hybrids now offer electric ranges of up to 84 miles, more than double what's currently available in the U.S.In comparison, U.S. plug-in hybrids like the Toyota Prius Prime max out at 45 miles of electric range, with most models offering between 25-35 miles.California's regulation changes will drive similar advancements in the U.S., requiring plug-in hybrids to achieve a minimum range of 43 miles by 2028 and 70 miles after that.BMW is once again sparking debate with its decision to charge U.S. customers to unlock features that are already physically installed in their vehicles.BMW is requiring payments to activate Adaptive Suspension on vehicles where it wasn't selected at purchase, despite the hardware being pre-installed.Customers can either subscribe monthly or yearly or pay a one-time $500 fee to activate the feature.A shocking data breach has exposed the personal information of billions, with serious implications for those affected.Over 2.9 billion records, including Social Security numbers, were allegedly stolen from National Public Data (NPD), a Florida-based background-check company.The breach is attributed to the USDod group, which claims to have stolen the data and is offering it for sale on the dark web for $3.5 million.While NPD has not officially confirmed the breach, it has acknowledged receiving inquiries and is investigating the claims.Multiple class-action lawsuits have been filed against NPD for failing to protect personal data, and individuals affected are encouraged to seek legal advice.Employee disengagement is on the rise, and experts are warning of a looming "Great Detachment," particularly among Gen Z workers.Gen Z is on track to outnumber boomers in the workforce this year and are expected to make up 27% of it by 2025.The American Staffing Association warns that disengaged employees could cost the global economy over $8 trillions.Since 2020, employees feel less committed to their roles, partly due to their companies' perceived lack of commitment.The CEO of Applied, Khyati Sundaram notes: Gen Z is vocal about work-life balance and transparency, which some older generations mistake for disengagement or laziness. Hosts: Paul J Daly and Kyle MountsierGet the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/ Read our most recent email at: https://www.asotu.com/media/push-back-email

On Take the Stage, presented by Haley Marketing, we bring you the BEST speakers, coaches, trainers, and strategic partners from across the staffing and recruiting industry every other week. More than your standard interview, each conversation is built off of a specific session or topic these industry thought leaders bring to conferences and audiences around the country.   On this episode, Brad Bialy interviews DeLibra Wesley, founder of National Recruiting Consultants and Women of Color in Staffing. They discuss the importance of incorporating DEI principles into the hiring process and how recruiters can effectively address unconscious bias. DeLibra shares practical advice for staffing firms just starting their DEI journey and highlights the role of technology in enhancing or hindering diversity in recruitment. To address unconscious bias in the hiring process, recruiters can be cautious about the language used in job postings, consider removing non-pertinent information from candidate profiles, and create skill sheets that omit names and gender. They also discuss the biggest challenge for DEI in staffing over the next five to ten years.     Key Takeaways: Staffing firms should be committed to implementing DEI practices and making it a part of their long-term goals and strategies.  Job descriptions should be clear, and gender-biased or masculine language should be avoided. Preferred qualifications should be removed from job descriptions to encourage more diverse candidates to apply. Technology can both enhance and hinder diversity in recruitment. While some software can help remove bias from job descriptions, AI can also perpetuate biases if not properly trained. Small staffing firms can start their DEI journey by implementing simple changes such as creating a gender-neutral dress code, building out a parental leave plan, and promoting cultural awareness days. Pay transparency is a crucial aspect of DEI, and organizations should strive to make compensation information visible and equitable.   ABOUT THE SPEAKERS Brad Bialy is the host of Take the Stage and InSights, the staffing industry's leading podcasts with close to 175,000 downloads.

The AI revolution is happening. I don't know how successful it will be, but regardless, people are trying to get AI into everything. That might be good or bad in various situations, but it has people worried about AI. This piece looks at a survey from the American Staffing Association that says 47% of people somewhat or strongly agree that their job is replaceable by automation with an AI. There is more data to dig into, but that's a lot of people who worry about their jobs. Most people do think that tech is generally a good thing. I do find that many of us in tech, and some other industries, are buried in work. There's never a shortage and we could easily work 60, 70, or more hours a week and not complete everything. The flip side of that is a lot of work doesn't necessarily need to be done now and could be delayed, so I think it's hard to decide whether we need more help or more patience. Read the rest of Are You Worried About AI?

Today, we're joined by Bloomberg Reporter Rich Miller. A survey by the American Staffing Association suggests that nearly half of people working the United States are worried that they will be replaced by automation at their workplaces.
