Have you ever advertised a vacant position and heard…nothing? It can happen. The recruitment market is highly competitive right now, especially for highly skilled talent, and sometimes it's hard to get to attract quality applications.

As a recruiter, I like to think my role is the key to making great hires. But the truth is that recruiting is a team sport, and the best results require the support of a great hiring manager.

Ever since the pandemic, employees have been demanding more Paid Time Off (PTO) and other forms of leave. And that's understandable--most of us realized during the crisis that we all need to spend more time with our families and enjoy life outside of work.

Talent acquisition is a crucial function of any company that works on government contracts. Your ability to fulfill the contract depends on having the right people with the right skills (and, in some cases, the right security clearance.)

Employee turnover is a natural part of any business. Contracts come to an end, employees move on, and you hire new people to replace them.

Right now, there’s a lot of media buzz about the so-called Great Resignation. It’s true that more employees than ever are considering jumping ship in the wake of the pandemic, and quit rates are higher than ever.
