50+ Ideas for Cultivating Diversity and Inclusion in the Workplace Today
I hate listicles apart from when they are really good. This one from LinkedIn definitely is one - practical, do-it-today ideas on cultivating a culture of diversity. If you care about D&I, you’re going to find an idea here that you’re going to end up implementing. PS: we talked about Culture Fit (being Bullsh1t) in last Friday’s Brainfood Live - check out replay here. D&I

Economic Impact of Returning to the Office
Have you noticed the general messaging from government, corporate HQ’s, newspapers et al, encouraging not only the return to work but the return to work in the office? Lot of vested interests trying to ensure it happens, as this outstanding report from PwC on UK data reveals. Big implications for those who have to make the decision - essential reading, here

The 3 Most Common Mistakes Inexperienced Interviewers Make
Very interesting piece of research from brainfooder Siadhal Magos, whose product Metaview is a kind of ‘interview analyser’. The top 3 mistakes are: 1) failure to set expectations, 2) failure to get concrete answers and 3) too many closed questions. Take a look at the post here, and let me know what you think ASSESSMENT

Hiring Your First Head of Marketing
This is a great anti-recruiting post, which I am kind of disappointed didn’t turn out to be a disguised job ad for a Head of Marketing in the end. Imagine if someone did that? Very nice storytelling though CONTENT MARKETING

The Power of Automation In Sourcing And Recruitment
What tools can you use to automate parts of your work as a sourcer or recruiter in order to to massively improve your efficiency? Asks brainfooder Adriaan Kolff. It’s a rhetorical question as he proceeds to outline how to do it. Excellent, in-depth, high value post. H/T to brainfooder Michiel Wiersema for the share. SOURCING

Zalando Tech Radar
If you spend a lot of money on tools, then it might be useful to build a tool to help you sort out which ones you really need. Check out the Tech Radar from Zalando - useful as it is for tech recruiters, but I wonder whether the framework & implementation could be adapted for the recruiting tech market. Do you reckon Zalando might do it, if I ask nicely? COOL TOOL

Talent & the Real Estate Company of the Future
This post is about real estate but it’s also about UX - specifically the UX that property companies need to provide to now reluctant office workers who might be doubting the value of an office. It’s wonderfully well written, with deep insight on the central point that Covid-19 forces product businesses to become service businesses. Have a read.H/T brainfooder Alex Brock for the share SOCIETY

Diversity-Related Training: What Is It Good For?
What is the efficacy of D&I training programmes? Not much at all according to this post, which is essentially a collection of peer reviewed research on the ineffectiveness - and even counter productiveness - of D&I training. D&I

‘Viking’ Was A Job Description
Imagine if your occupation had such a cultural impact that it actually became (mis)understood as an ethnicity? Black haired Viking raiders came from all over Northern Europe, often times peoples who adopted the pillaging way after encounters with earlier raiders. Not really recruiting, I must say (or maybe it is?) OBSCURA

I’m still in London (of course), and bracing for the end of summer, the next inevitable Covid lockdown, accelerating crisis of BoJo’s Brexit, whilst pretty much aghast at the emotional rollercoaster that comes with being a friend of the United States (stay strong friends). A bit of zen might help, so this video of a battle rapper making calm philosophical observations whilst driving around North London is pretty much what we need right now… DM me on twitter or Instagram…if you have any more cool and weird internet for me to check out. Have a great week everybody. Hung
