Modern Recruitment Processes

I was drawn to this blog due to the title…"Recruitment Efforts Bolstered by Integrating Applicant Tracking Systems”.  I was drawn to it as I have a difficult time finding great talent in the industry, and being a Sales VP, that is one of my top 5 concerns.  Our organization, just like all of the others, must stay on the front line of recruiting to ensure your resources are as effective as possible.  I was intrigued by this article not only because we can be the provider of the software but because the very resources I use to assist in my recruiting efforts could and would benefit from it.  If the recruiters I use are using this software they are sure to get my business because I know they are investing in both their future and my future.

It's Time to Diversify How We Train Our Staff

This article by dvsAnalytics perfectly describes how we feel about training in the workplace. Over recent years, it's as though employee education and training has become more of a standardized "one-size-fits-all" process. The problem with this is that not all employees are the same, or learn the same way for that matter. It's usually more or less due to the fact that managers and supervisors are too busy to attend each and every employee's needs on a one-to-one basis at anytime any day during the workweek. 

What needs to happen in order to fix this issue is perfectly highlighted in the article. We recommend you read more here: http://www.dvsanalytics.com/blog/2015/09/moving-away-from-one-size-fits-all-agent-coaching-and-training/

The Rising Importance of Video Surveillance

It isn’t often I write up about the new camera technology we see every day. I should, as it is a part of our business that fascinates me, but I don’t think it gets enough attention because it seems to be a “been there - done that” type of business. Surveillance technology has been around for a long time, thereby, I think what gets forgotten is the fact that it too changes daily and the stuff we see is amazing.

I read an article written by Jill Delaney from our partner, Exacq Technologies, and on the surface it seems boring, just another dome camera. But what you read when you get into this article along with the video - is insane. So much so that homeowners like myself should start taking this seriously.  Facial recognition in low light / high contrast situations could mean an end to security breaches, theft, curb violence and vandalism and, therefore, provide piece of mind.  Now, of course the Big Brother theory will get tossed around, but there is a happy medium in there somewhere. Especially given the fact the Internet has proven time and time again that Big Brother is already here and in our face, whether we like it or not. 

Every company out there should look into video surveillance, invest in video surveillance, and utilize it more frequently. Click through our website or call us to find out more. Here is the article on the new camera I looked at recently:
