Coming in at #14 on the 2024 Cigar Coop Cigar of the Year Countdown is the Trinidad Espiritu Series No 3 Toro by Altadis U.S.A.. Back in 2019, the Trinidad brand celebrated its 50th anniversary. Trinidad is a brand that traces its roots back to Cuba, but Altadis U.S.A. has owned the Trinidad brand in the U.S. for quite some time. For a while, the brand was almost dormant in the Altadis portfolio. That changed in 2019 when, coinciding with Trinidad's 50th anniversary, Altadis U.S.A. launched the Trinidad Espiritu Series. This would take a whole new spin on the Trinidad brand and essentially bring the brand back to life in the Altadis portfolio. Currently, there are three Trinidad Espiritu releases, with the Espiritu No. 3 being the latest in the series. Each installment pays homage to a different Latin American region—that also happens to be a cigar-producing region. Full Details: https://wp.me/p6h1n1-uwC

What are the biggest trends that affect the future of agency recruitment? Are you positioned for success in the rapidly evolving world of work? With advances in Open AI and the growing popularity of remote work and the gig economy, the recruitment industry is set for a major transformation in the next 5-10 years. This shift might cause fear and uncertainty among recruiters, however if you're aware of the trends, remain agile and are willing to adapt, you can capitalize on the tremendous new opportunities that will be created. Join us in this episode with special guest, Rob Green, as we explore the future of agency recruitment amidst the rapidly changing technological landscape. Rob reveals his insights based on extensive research and shares the specific steps his company is taking to stay relevant. Rob Green is the CEO and Founder of The GRM Group, a holding company that combines leading recruitment, research, recruitment tech, and management consulting brands, all servicing the global legal industry. With 20 years of experience in the recruitment industry and having placed lawyers in 40 countries, Rob brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to the discussion. Episode Outline and Highlights [03:05] Why and how Rob's business model has evolved since we last spoke. [08:00] How skill matching platforms will change the recruitment industry. [14:57] Why Rob created a research company, GRM Intelligence. [26:45] The future of the recruitment industry. [29:40] Core trends that are changing the way that we work. [40:30] How should you adapt your recruitment business to stay relevant? [47:33] Preparing for the future; why Rob is investing in Umbiie. The Three Meta Trends That Are Changing the Recruitment Industry Recruiters and recruitment business owners are always interested to know how technology such as Opan AI will affect the industry. You'll enjoy hearing Rob's fascinating insights about the future of work, based on the research report that he commissioned. His research team identified three trends that will transform the way people work and how companies recruit: The Sharing Economy / Gig Economy Global Talent Pools / Distributed Teams The Skillset Revolution Rob urged the listeners to zoom out from the world of recruitment for a minute and realize how the world is changing based on the above three meta trends. We also discussed the growing “gig economy,” and how talents prefer to work from anywhere in the world and would prefer project-based instead of full-time. If you fear that AI will take a majority of jobs in the future, that is not the crazy part. Rob cited a report by Dell Technologies which it states that “80% of all the jobs in the next decade that we'll all be working in haven't even been invented yet.” What does it mean for you as a recruiter or a recruitment business owner? As Rob very well puts it, “There's going to be a whole new way of recruiting, a whole new skill set of recruiting. And we can prepare for this.” Leveraging Skill-Matching Platforms for Recruitment Rob dived into how they are adapting to the trends of the shared economy and shared data by means of technology. They are using the platform StiiNT.iT (Stint It) - to simplify their process and maximize potential. The platform is a private-labelled recruitment technology where “Professionals across the world are vetted and skills verified creating anonymous profiles. These profiles will be searchable and accessible, whether it sits on someone else's platform or your own – building a collaborative talent pool, ensuring 100% matches, and removing unconscious biases.” Rob's team has white-labeled the Stint It platform to create Umbiie (umbiie.com), a global skills-matching platform for legal professionals. It's not a perfect comparison, but this is the equivalent of Bumble for recruiting - the idea is that candidates choose which employers can unlock their profile. Rob shared how they deal with data privacy and how the platform can be monetized. As he stated, “This is really not a pitch because I don't get anything out of this. This is just, do you wanna prepare for the future? Do you believe that there's going to be pressure on contingency recruitment? If you do, there is a solution out there.” Our Sponsors This podcast is proudly sponsored by i-intro and Recruitment Entrepreneur. i-intro® is an end-to-end retained recruitment platform.
