When you are transitioning from the military, it is important to come up with a plan for your finances. When you’re financially ready to transition, you’ll have more freedom to explore different employment choices and won’t feel pressured to take the first job that you are offered.

Last week, we reviewed several new challenges COVID has presented to the recruiting world. But, in talking with our customers, there is one overwhelming item that has not changed - the need for good talent!

On the blog last week we discussed Zoom fatigue - but is there such a thing as job search fatigue? Turns out there is - many people are experiencing this phenomenon right now, especially since there is an increased number of those unemployed for longer periods due to the ongoing pandemic.

Your employer branding ties your company together. It is a marketing strategy that represents your culture and tells potential candidates what it is like working at your company. The way in which your employees engage each other and candidates is the essence of your employment brand.

Over the next two weeks, we’ll explore the different ways COVID is impacting companies' abilities to staff to appropriate levels and discuss why an outsourced recruiting solution is a great option in our current climate.

The pandemic has arguably changed the landscape of the hiring process, most notably in the interview stage. Videoconferencing has evolved from a “nice to have” tool to now being the only means of communication between job seekers and employers.

There’s no denying that 2020 has been a rough year. But, many HR and talent acquisition leaders have risen to meet challenges forced upon them in resilient and creative ways. They’ve re-imagined their work to contribute to today and prepare for tomorrow.

Transitioning from the military can be overwhelming, daunting, and hard to know where to start. Add to that the current global health crisis, and it is especially difficult to navigate a military to civilian transition.

Outsourced recruiting, known as Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO), is an overall business strategy in which sourcing, recruiting, and hiring (in whole or part) is outsourced to an expert to positively productivity and profitability.

So you decided to end your career in the military and begin your new journey transitioning all the skills you learned and using them in the civilian world. You may be asking yourself what to do next and where to start now that you are leaving the military. What do you want to do? What industry do you want to work for? These are some of the right questions to ask yourself while seeking help to figure out which industry is best for you. The data center industry has been seeing a staffing shortage and needs the help of veterans and service members like you to help close it.
