I can relate, can you?

I am always in the market for people looking to hire and job seekers looking for a fulfilling next step in their careers. Often, I hear job seekers say that they want a job that they will "love" and I picture the word "love" as in partner, parents, or child kind of love and it all sounds so far out of reach. The search or hunt for the job that we "love" seems so impossible...or does it? #loveyourjob #lovemywork #lovewhatyoudo

All that work to find the best person to join your company and on their first day you can either forget them or embrace them (within social distancing rules anyhow). Put a dynamic, fluid, plan in place to make their first day confirm they made the right decision to join you! Inclusive= happy #3minuteread #inclusion #onboardingsuccess

You've got this! Tools to build your power Give it away. Share it with people, because the people who can use it the most... are the ones with no resources and no technology and no status and no power. Significantly change the outcomes of their life.

What is the best piece of advice you have ever received? Share with others what has helped you so much :)

Love this statement from, Tami Bonnell: If we want people to follow us, we must continue to grow as human beings. If we really want to attract more success and better experiences, then we must be someone who attracts the right people into our lives. That wont happen unless were constantly growing as individuals. #ownyourpersonalpower #attractmoresuccess

How are you coping with self-isolation? Over the past week. as our world shifted beneath our feet, those of us who naturally take control in life were (and still are ) rocked to the core. What to do, how do we help, how can we get around this and bigger yet, how do we get through this with everyone and everything intact? It is exhausting to do nothing. Since Sunday, I have chosen to control what I can by starting with the small things, a sense of accomplishment on a teenie t...iny scale and mainly taking action to support other small businesses in small but meaningful ways. My advice for today, start with the small things and collectively, we can support each other in a big way! #isolation #stayhealthy #communicate See more

We talk a lot about strengths here at KMG. First, its important that you understand exactly what strength is: its not something that youre good at, just like a weakness isnt something that youre bad at. A strength is an activity that strengthens you. That you look forward to doing. Its an activity that leaves you feeling energized, rather than depleted. We all have things that were good at, but that we hate doing, right? Those are called weaknesses. Thanks Marcus!

KMG stands up and supports the women in our global circle! #eachforequal #fempreneur #believeandachieve

At KMG we love the search for skills and strengths. We understand that you may be looking to hire someone amazing or looking for a new workplace adventure, either way we would love to speak with you!

KMG believes skills and strengths ( soft skills) hiring are where it's at in 2020. Margaret Heffernan shares her thoughts... Preparedness, coalition-building, imagination, experiments, bravery -- in an unpredictable age, these are tremendous sources of resilience and strength. They aren't efficient, but they give us a limitless capacity for adaptation, variation, and invention. And the less we know about the future, the more we're going to need these tremendous sources of human, messy, unpredictable skills. Enjoy this video, we sure did! # #proudtobearecruiter #jobsmatchmaker #skillsandstrengthshiring

We often find that this is a request from more and more job seekers when they are looking for their next role. Done with long commute times? Want your commute to be less stressful? Hello Employers, here is something to think about... As the popularity of remote working continues to spread, workers today can collaborate across cities, countries and even multiple time zones. How does this change office dynamics? And how can we make sure that all employees, both at headquarters and at home, feel connected? Matt Mullenweg, the co-founder of Wordpress and CEO of Automattic (which has a 100 percent distributed workforce), shares his secrets. #proudtobearecruiter #directhire
