2. How to Get the Budget You Need for Applicant Tracking Software
CEO’s and finance people definitely have their own way of thinking about
technology, but that doesn’t mean you’ll be turned down every time you
ask for upgrades. If you base your arguments on efficiency, talent
attraction, and comparing the costs of an ATS to the time spent by HR
inefficiently and the costs of a bad hire, you’ll likely have the C-suite on
your side.

3. Future Friday: Finding talent via the Internet of Things
A little bit of future. We’re probably not very far from
connecting also our everyday actions to the network, besides
our objects. With this data, also called the quantified self
analyzed, recruiters will be able to see a person’s strengths
and weaknesses, maybe even motivations and expectations.
Sounds scary? Will not be if you realize how much it helps
you find the everbest talent for the job.

4. Every Business Problem Cannot be Solved with Technology
HR Bartender blogger Sharlyn Lauby gives a three-point checklist to
help companies develop strategies using technology. She’s
convinced that it is not the technology that solves a problem, only if
it is used in a special way - to support the strategy behind.

5. Make Interviews Fun, Not Frightening
Video interviewing is getting mainstream but many
times they fail to accomplish their aims, mainly because
of an awkward process. If there’s a brief explanation
of the why’s and how’s, and if it’s done in an easy-going,
fun atmosphere, recruiters can get the
necessary information for their decisions.

6. The Old Ways Of Working Are Not Working
Brand marketing, leveraging every single network
possible to find talent, taking the first steps with big
data and talent analytics, improve candidate experience,
and working on engaging those talented employees who
always have the option to leave your company - these
are some of the ways to compete successfully in
the quest for today’s workforce.
