The Best Business Development Practices for Recruiters

With the great fluctuations in the job market we saw in 2020 and 2021 came a high demand for talent and thus for recruiters. In 2022, as Jack Kelly writes for Forbes, businesses were struggling to find enough workers to meet the new demands at their companies, and as such, are constantly looking for solutions. Now, however, the need for recruiters seems to have dropped back down, demonstrating both the great waves this industry sees and the need for business development practices that you can carry out beyond temporary booms.

4 Tricks for Writing a Perfect Cover Letter for Any Job

These days, applying for many jobs is as easy as clicking two buttons (thank you, Easy Apply on LinkedIn!). But what about the cases where Easy Apply is not an option?

Many, in these cases especially, feel the need to skip the cover letter, since it's arguably the most time-consuming—having to personalize and…

What It Takes to Succeed in Sales: Tips from Stu Schlackman

It's no surprise that many who succeed in sales are competitive by nature—they want to win, and as such, they act quick on their feet to do so. And for many decades, salespeople have been perceived—and even depicted in literature and media—as being pushy, charismatic, and working well under high-pressure. But what many forget or fail to recognize is that not all customers respond to the same kind of sales techniques. In fact, some of the best salespeople in the world base their sales approach on each individual customer. And countless who have been in the industry for long enough…

Job Market Trends So Far in 2023

For many months following the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, economists and business experts alike made projections about what the future held for the economy and the job market. And many, for good reason, anticipated a massive recession in 2022 to 2023. But, of course, only time would tell what the actual repercussions of the onset of the pandemic would have years later. Having just passed the mid-year mark in 2023, now's a better time than ever to consider these results—now that the numbers are in.
