Valerie Nielsen liked thisShipped!!!Valerie Nielsen liked thisThere's a moment at the top of a waterslide— up next, butt in the water— when the teenager in charge blows their whistle and you...hesitate. It's not that you don't want to take the ride: you just climbed 10,000 hot metal steps barefoot to get here. You’ve watched person after person push themselves off, scream at the top of their lungs, and crash safely into the pool below with a whoop, with a laugh, with “let’s do it again” on the tips of their tongues. But no matter how much sunburn you endured to get here— no matter how badly you want your turn to launch— there’s always that beat of hesitation. The animal part of your brain going “hey, just checking: you know this is dangerous, right?” Today, when we set Yolk’s website to public, I hesitated. A moment for my lizard brain to remind me that launching a software company is, perhaps, not the safest choice we could be making. That not everyone lands in that pool with a smile on their face. That swallowing waterpark “water” (heavy on the quotation marks) is all but guaranteed. That our chances of landing painfully badly are, if we’re being honest, pretty darn high. But Hugo Pretorius and I didn’t burn the soles of our feet just to pass on our chance to push. So push we did: Yolk Active is officially in public beta. The final countdown before a June 1 full launch, now visible to the world. Open to anyone. Ready to start taking the bumps and twists in stride. The scariest little skeleton landing page I’ve ever published; the most intimidating button I’ve ever pushed. Of course, if we have a shot at sticking the landing, it’s because of the massive, incredible platform Hugo’s built. From my vantage point at the top of the waterslide; there’s no one better to be pushing off with. So if you know of a boutique fitness studio that’s just taking off, or ready to make a change in how they manage operations: shoot them our link. We’re moving at 100ft/second, and we’d love to have them on board for the ride. P.S: Too much feet?

Valerie Nielsen liked thisValerie Nielsen liked thisLast Friday marked a significant milestone as I celebrated my 26th work anniversary alongside Emily Corken who celebrated her 11th anniversary. Together, we have had the privilege of helping to place 29,000 candidates in a variety of short and long-term positions. That's not a typo. 29K. What we do isn't easy. Placements go wrong, offers aren't accepted, clients don't call back—the list goes on. However, when we reflect on the fact that 29,000 candidates received a paycheck, secured a full-time offer, or achieved a promotion, it makes it all worthwhile. Numbers like this are only possible with a fantastic team and an incredible organization. People often ask me why I've stayed in this role for so long, and my answer is always the same: it's the people. The colleagues we work with, the candidates we place and the clients we support. Thank you all for making this one incredible journey. I'm grateful! Love what you to, who you do it for, and who you do it with!

📉 Labor Market Update – May 2025 JOLTS Report The latest data shows a labor market caught in a holding pattern: 🔹 Hires held steady at 5.5 million (3.4% rate) – flat from April 🔹 Quits edged up to 3.3 million (2.1%), still below pre-COVID norms 🔹 Hiring increased in accommodation & food services and finance 🔹 Hiring declined in healthcare and professional/business services 🔹 Manufacturing hiring fell to 333,000 – the lowest since August 2016, with a hires rate of just 2.2%. ⚠️This is a labor market marked by caution. While openings remain elevated, companies are taking longer to fill roles, scrutinizing each hire more closely, and hesitating in the face of economic uncertainty. 🫰Tariffs have already caused many manufacturers to slow hiring, and we’ve yet to see the full impact. As the inventory of pre-tariff materials runs out, many will face even tougher decisions. 🔍 The path forward is clear: organizations need talent strategies that give them flexibility, control costs, and help them stay ready for growth when the time is right. 💡Whether it's contract staffing, project-based support, or direct hire pipelines, aligning with the right talent partner now can position your team for what's next. 📖 https://lnkd.in/gpBtxpUB #180Engineering #BLS #LaborMarket #HiringTrends #Manufacturing #JOLTS #EngineeringStaffing #TalentStrategy #WorkforcePlanning #ContractStaffing

Why "Recruiter Experience" (RX) matters as much as candidate experience, and it's time we start paying attention to the often-overlooked heroes of our industry. As recruiters, we're often so focused on delivering exceptional candidate experiences that we forget the importance of our own experience in the process. According to a report by Glassdoor, 76% of recruiters believe that a positive recruiter experience is crucial for a company's reputation (Source: Glassdoor). Here are a few reasons why RX matters: * Boosts productivity and efficiency * Enhances job satisfaction and engagement * Improves quality of hire * Increases retention rates * Supports business growth and scalability With the Indian recruitment market expected to grow to $46.5 billion by 2025 (Source: ResearchAndMarkets), it's essential we prioritize RX to stay competitive. So, what are you doing to prioritize the experience of your recruiters? #RecruitmentIndia #MumbaiJobs #HRMatters #BangaloreRecruiters #IndianRecruitmentMarket #TalentAcquisition #RecruiterExperience #RXmatters Connect with me or comment below if you have any questions or want to discuss further!

I attended a Staffing Industry Analysts webinar last week. The Webinar covered trends in various Staffing markets, most notably Technology. Some of the key takeaways are below. The recovery is real. 🟡 Tech Staffing was -10% in 2023. -6% in 2024. Forecast to return to growth in 2026. ⚫ 40% of Tech firms reported revenue growth in December. In April, that number was flat. 🟡 New orders are following the same direction. Not all of Tech is recovering equally. The roles and disciplines seeing the strongest demand: 🟡 Cyber — ransomware/phishing incidents are accelerating client spend here. ⚫ Cloud — clients are building the infrastructure AI actually needs. 🟡 Data — the foundation that underpins everything AI related. ⚫ Product — strong bill rate and volume growth. There was a consensus that software developers and web developers were under the most pressure. AI is compressing demand at the commoditized end of that market. The smarter firms are moving into Solutions. 🟡 Margin in pure staffing is tight. ⚫ IT consulting and solutions businesses are running significantly higher gross margins. 🟡 Clients want partners, not just suppliers. ⚫ IT Solutions now accounts for 27% of combined IT revenue — up from 24% just a year ago. Finally, the impact of AI is less dramatic than the headlines suggest. Three public company CEOs said broadly the same thing last week. 💬 Client infrastructure isn't ready. 💬 Spend is actually going up in cloud, security and modernization. 💬 The disruption is real but narrow. The compression is happening at the commoditized end. The specialist, senior end of the market remains intact. Clarity R2R | Staffing Industry Analysts | James Ward | Marcus Davies

Tech hiring is cooling, but demand for critical skills remains strong. As Computerworld reports, November saw continued declines across parts of the tech sector, signaling a more selective, skills-focused market. As Kye Mitchell, President of Experis US, puts it, “For professionals, it’s clear: upskill in AI, data engineering, and security to stay ahead.” This is exactly what we focus on at Experis. Helping clients and tech talent stay competitive by connecting in-demand skills to measurable business outcomes. 👉 Read more: https://bit.ly/3N5oc5a #TechTalent #FutureOfWork #AI #Upskilling #Experis

Attention #jobseekers who are #opentowork, been #laidoff, part of a #layoff or #reductioninworkforce OR career professionals looking to be proactive with finding a #newjob? The #jobmarket is very competitive. #jobseekers must have a #jobsearchstrategy. You CANNOT just send out 100s of resumes to 100s of job postings and hope someone calls you. Do you have a strong and #professionalresume? If you are unsure of your resume format, content, or quality…. Please take advantage of my FREE RESUME REVIEW https://lnkd.in/g-4bcFV Check out these #recruiter #talentacquisition #hotjobs, #jobopportunities with Eric Allison **I help active job seekers and proactive career professionals navigate their job search. **I prepare professional, ATS friendly resumes/LinkedIn profiles with a HUMAN APPROACH **I have a verified LinkedIn profile, and I am a U.S.-based, 1-person company *52 clients accepted job offers in 2026, 145+ in 2025** **Proven track record of getting clients more responses/interviews and turning around stalled searches to land new jobs** **133 LinkedIn Recommendations/Success Stories** **14K+ LinkedIn Network/Recruiter/Hiring Manager Contacts** I am passionate about helping professionals achieve their career goals by providing personalized 1:1 services specifically tailored to your needs. Let’s set up a call to “meet”, so I can understand your needs/situation and discuss how I can help you! Recent client success story: “Working with Nicki was the turning point in my job search. After 14 years with one company, I suddenly found myself navigating a market flooded with layoffs and a lot of competition. I had worked with three other firms before finding her. The difference was immediate. Her suggestions were built around me specifically, not pulled from a template. The moment I applied her suggested edits to my own LinkedIn profile and saw how differently my experience read, I knew she actually understood my background and what I brought to any organization. Her premier package covered everything: a full resume redraft, specific language and positioning changes she guided me to make directly to my own LinkedIn profile, role targeting strategy, interview prep, and introductions to her recruiter network. She also pushed back hard on my over-reliance on AI in the search process. She was right and adjusting that approach made a real difference. Within days of implementing her suggestions, I was hearing from recruiters regularly. Six weeks later, I accepted a role at a Fortune 500 company, exactly what I had been looking for. Nicki is the right person. I would work with her again without hesitation.” #careercoach #resumewriter #resumewriting #jobseeker
