In this week's episode, Dan and I talk about how to actually understand  job descriptions as you do your job search.  There are job descriptions that are really good at describing what the job is going to entail, the team you will work with and the company's expectations, however, since there are no real guidelines on how to write them, or they have been recycled over the years and never updated, they can be lacking key information.  But that's no reason to discount the role or company!  Dan and I have written many job descriptions in our years of HR and recruiting, some good, some bad, and we share with you how to decipher the what the hiring manager is looking for, key elements in the description, what questions to ask, as well as, some helpful actionable tips and tricks to help you in your search!In this episode, you will specifically learn how to…How to find key elements in the “about the company” description How to look for key elements about the role How not to over analyze job descriptions How to find your “green and red flags” How to understand the titles/levels More about Karen and Dan…I'm Karen Weeks, the CEO & Chief Shine Officer (aka transformation coach) at KDW Coaching, the host of the Shine at Work podcast, award winning culture leader (currently leading the People team at Ordergroove), a speaker and published author.

How to Hire in the Nordics?   Brainfood Live is back on tour! This time we are virtually visiting our friends in the North and to try and better understand how the universal challenges of recruiting are solved by local recruiters in Norway, Sweden, Denmark and Finland. I actually couldn't find any Icelandic or Faroese recruiters so if you are there, make sure you pipe up during the livestream!   You will learn:   - What are the unifying characteristics of hiring in the Nordics? Can we even consider it a category? - How would you describe the culture in Nordic society - what do outsiders most often get wrong? - Working with hiring managers - what do recruiters have to know? - Working with candidates - what do recruiters have know? - How do we handle the English vs Native language divide? - What differences are there between the countries in the Nordics? - Is there a city vs rural divide? - Most important things to get right in TA?   All this and more with our Nordic heroes Per Tjenberg, Founder (TBA), Danny Crook, Talent Acquisition Manager (Kognity),  Niklas Lerner, Founder (Krut), & Kati Kitti, Director of Talent Acquisition (Solita)   Ep170 is sponsored by our buddies Talentiir Talentiir is the Talent Partner for Companies in Scandinavia and enables growth stage scale-ups to hire the best talent in the most efficient way.

Creating blueprints or playbooks for founders is one of VCs' numerous responsibilities regarding talent. Operationalizing assists you learn how to support several companies simultaneously. Therefore, rather than spending five to ten hours with a founder, you spend thirty to sixty minutes with a playbook or blueprint. Finding and hiring the most qualified candidates for a position does not adhere to a "one size fits all" model. Early-stage businesses need VCs that can rapidly examine their existing conditions and key obstacles and then use this knowledge to develop a strategy that matches their specific needs.

How To Hire for a Brand No One Knows   I mean no offence! But lets face it, there are some brands which are too new, too niche or simply too back in the supply chain to be well know to the masses. I suspect hiring for these companies may well be different prospect to hiring for well known B2C players, especially in tech. How do you go about marketing job opportunities for an employer no one knows?   - What the challenges of hiring for a brand that is less well known? - Is it harder than hiring for a well known company? - What strategies work / don't work? - What is the best outreach strategy when name recognition is zero? - How to overcome common objections?   All this and more with Iwan Gulenko, Founder (CoderFit), Alla Pavlova, Recruiter (Riot Games) & Wim Dammans, Recruiter (TenneT) - experienced recruiters who have all worked for employers no one knows.     Ep161 is sponsored by our buddies Talentiir   Talentiir is the Talent Partner for Companies in Scandinavia and enables growth stage scale-ups to hire the best talent in the most efficient way.

Steve Stoll, Fmr. Special Forces Green Beret and Sr. Talent Partner at Twilio, has spent his career connecting with people from all walks of life. Steve shares lessons learned from leading his Special Forces Team through some interesting situations, like being dropped in the middle of Honduras and having to make friends quick. Steve says that it's all about finding one thing to connect on- whether that is music or good whiskey, it just takes one piece of common ground to start a meaningful relationship. After leaving the Service, Steve found that his innate gift to connect with people, allowed him to be effective in business and it was the soft skills that ultimately allowed him to climb the corporate ladder. From Dell to Twilio, Steve has found that clear communication, being open to input and spending the extra time to get to know people, leaves an impression. So much so, that Steve now spends most of his days helping tech executives find the right people. In a world where data and resumes are abundant, Steve says that nothing beats an in person conversation with a potential Teammate. Often it is intuition that helps you make the right call, on a hire. Years of experience making quick decisions on someone's character has led Steve to many hires where senior Leaders were unsure, but ultimately turned out to be beyond successful. It is almost never the lack of technical or hard skills that cause companies to look for new talent, it's because folks didn't play well with others or possess that level of commitment that is hard to teach. It may take time, but Steve believes that folks can work on their soft skills by putting themselves in Team situations that are uncomfortable and require creativity. Steve also shares that his perspective gained, while in the military, allows him to live life with gratitude. Having seen unrest and harsh environments reminds him to live his best life everyday and prioritize the moments in front of him.

Throughout her career of more than a decade, one thing has always remained the same for today's guest: the importance of leading with empathy and humanity. As a young, queer, tattooed woman, Ashlyn stands out in the traditional world of finance, but it was in this world, where someone took a chance on her as a high school dropout, that she rapidly climbed the ranks. In her early twenties, she ran operations for several advisory firms before identifying her true calling: recruiting. Through her work as Senior Talent Partner at Altruist, she's able to help people find their place and activate their talents and passions. Her passion for diversity, equity, and inclusion really shines through in this interview, as does her mission to empower and educate candidates to make the best decisions for themselves and their long term. We touch on the process of poaching, negotiation and salary expectations, and Ashlyn's ‘everybody wins' approach, as well as how Altruist's onboarding and training philosophy provides a safe space for new hires to say “I don't know.”    Key Points From This Episode: An introduction to Ashlyn McIntosh, her career trajectory, and her current role at Altruist The importance of being intentional when hiring and retaining talent. How Ashlyn's role as senior talent partner differs from that of the director of talent. How the rest of the team is structured and how they have grown it through new hires. Why Altruist believes in starting off with their best offer, not forcing candidates to negotiate. Ashlyn explains how forcing negotiation inherently reinforces biased pay inequities. Hear her opinion on salary expectations and listing salary bands in job descriptions. Why she advocates for candidates who undersell themselves; the ‘everybody wins' approach. How smart companies retain talent by paying them what they are worth. The value of breaking the taboo around discussing your salary with your coworkers. The utility of soliciting salary expectations in a world where no one is forced to negotiate. Ashlyn's approach to onboarding, which involves borrowing from previous companies. Find out more about Altruist's skills-based and systems training philosophy.   Tweetables: “We need to be giving the best employee experience possible because all it takes is one bad day and, suddenly, somebody is responding to a recruiter InMail. You have to be careful about the kind of employee experience that you're providing people, or else they do have options.” — Ashlyn McIntosh [0:08:43]   “When it comes down to being competitive, I still always want the candidate to make the right decision for themselves and their long term. I don't get very pushy. I try [to] be a sounding board for my candidates.” — Ashlyn McIntosh [0:14:20]   “Forcing people to negotiate is inherently sexist and racist. There are going to be far less women who are comfortable negotiating. There are far less people of color who are comfortable negotiating.” — Ashlyn McIntosh [0:15:52]   “Letting people know ‘you can do better' is really important. We have had such a mentality within our society because of capitalism that, if one person wins, it means you can't win when, in reality, there's room for all have us to win. Why would I hold somebody back from that?” — Ashlyn McIntosh [0:19:43]   “There are companies that reward their recruiters for costing the company less money. I don't necessarily think those are smart companies. Smart companies hire the ideal talent for whatever their company is for what they're worth.” — Ashlyn McIntosh [0:21:22]   Links Mentioned in Today's Episode: Ashlyn McIntosh on LinkedIn Altruist Talk Talent to Me

Being adaptable and flexible is the cornerstone of human development. Though each of us is born with a certain skill set and associated prospects, the nurture of these skills is a never-ending process, if we want to develop and utilise them in practical settings. In order to be successful, companies need to modernise and adapt, too, as well as seek to create an environment where employees' talents can flourish.

Knee jerk benchmarking in HR systems and decisions has created a race towards the mediocre for most startups. Considering we're supposed to be the innovators there's an awful lot of cheating off of someone else's homework going on and most conclusions reached from a benchmarking exercise fail to remember that the information you're benchmarking against comes from a different set of circumstances, conditions and even just different human beings than the one in front of you. Plus just because it's normal doesn't make it smart or a good idea.  My hope is that HR leaders and company leaders, in general, are able to shift how they look out into the ecosystem from a benchmarking exercise to an inspirational exercise. But if you're going out to the world and asking it do define for you how you should run your own organization you're risking your success. Jonathan Basker has spent his career becoming an expert in how humans operate and cooperate inside of early-stage companies. His early career focused on cultivating talent and culture at companies like Etsy, Barkbox, Handy, InVision and betaworks where he was one of the first people to hold a Talent Partner-type role within the venture and developed the Hacker in Residence program - one of the original models for the VC studio ecosystem. He’s studied humans in myriad cultures; learning lessons along the way which are applicable to startups and individuals alike. These days he splits his time between supporting emerging leaders as an executive coach, supporting companies through organizational change and growth, and running around the hills and streams of the Catskills with a fly rod and a bow and arrow. He’s quite passionate about all 3 pursuits.

Nancy is the CEO and Founder of PathMatch, a platform that matches students to in-demand careers, helps them prepare, and then connects them to top employers.  She’s also a Talent Partner at Hypothesis Ventures, a Venture Capital firm, where she advises high-growth companies on hiring.  Prior to this, she was former CEO of FILD, a recruiting firm that connects top talent to some of the most well-respected companies around the country. After spending two decades helping companies hire, she noticed a huge skills gap emerging.  Students were graduating from college without the requisite skills and experience to land most entry-level jobs companies were looking to fill.  After working with hundreds of students, she realized this was a result of students' lack of knowledge of the modern career paths available today.  She and her team built PathMatch to connect students to compatible career paths and then help them build the relevant skills and experiences they need to land top jobs.

Celia Berk didn’t set out to be a corporate executive. In fact, she moved to New York City thinking “Broadway” more than “Boardroom.” But, she quickly learned that breaking into showbiz was really hard and she actually loved working in an office. Thus began her career as an “accidental HR executive.” Through her early jobs, Celia learned what she liked about work and what she was good at. Upon landing at Reuters in 1987, she climbed the ladder of HR-adjacent roles till she became the SVP of organizational development. Her rise didn’t follow a traditional career ladder but in retrospect, as every step involved HR and talent work. That’s why she pivoted to HR at Burson-Marsteller (BM) and then Young & Rubicam (Y&R). It was at this point that Celia also decided it was time to turn her “singing hobby” into a full-fledged part of her professional life. Although hesitant at first, Celia has learned how to balance these two very different parts of her life/career. Listen in to Your Career, Your Terms®: Pivot Points® as Celia shares how she successfully balanced her dual careers; her best advice from decades of being an HR executive and developer of great talent; and how she got through the tough times.
