Why You Should Rehire a Former Employee News

Why You Should Rehire a Former Employee

This week, a surprising headline took LinkedIn News by storm: "Why returning hires are coming back." We find this surprising because, as the author of the news article Riva Gold notes, for many, there is a taboo associated with an employee returning to a previous place of work—for employees and employers alike. It seems like a messy practice to take up, no? So, why should you rehire a former employee? We've got some pretty compelling arguments as well as ways to not sever ties when an employee approaches you with a letter of resignation below! Why Employees Are Returning to…

The Value of a Process and 3 Steps for Sales Training

Recently, we at Workwolf have noticed a huge uptick in the demand for sales professionals. In fact, just this week, a LinkedIn News article by Greg Lewis revealed that the sales industry was one of the most recurrent industries among the top ten most in-demand positions on LinkedIn. And as Steve Trang, a sales trainer extraordinaire, as well as real estate "disruptor" and podcast host, notes, sales can be a very profitable career path if one has the talent and work ethic to make it a long-term career.  But, as Trang recognizes, not everyone will thrive in such a career.…

Create a Recruitment Roadmap with These 5 Simple Steps

Earlier last month, in a recent article for CNBC, Research Director at Indeed's Hiring Lab Nick Bunker noted that this year's labour market is "getting closer to a marathon pace" in relation to last year's "sprinting" pace. And, crucially, this slowdown is "welcome," Bunker notes; "it’s the only way to go the distance.” Still, employers and job seekers alike need to proceed with care when looking to secure worthy candidates and job positions respectively. Employers in particular must remain agile and competitive to ensure they continue to attract the best candidates. The best way to do so, it seems, is…

Take Your Sales Career beyond Just Selling

With sales as competitive and a company's success as critical as ever before, we at Workwolf have been diving into ways you can improve your sales tactics. And one of the most common themes that comes up time and again is the need for going beyond just selling in the sales industry. Keith Snowden, for one, has been working in the med-tech industry for over 20 years and recognizes "This is not selling widgets" when it comes to live-saving technology. "What you're dealing with," he says, "is a very customer-concentric and patient-concentric business, which requires a high degree of technology…

4 of the Best Ways to Personalize Your Hiring Process

In September alone, 64,000 new positions—as Jessy Bains reports for LinkedIn News—were added to the Canadian job market. And while this is three times more than the expected 20,000 economists anticipated, it is still below pre-pandemic job rates. And it is crucial to note that these jobs were added predominantly within transportation, warehouse, and education industries. Meanwhile, numbers of positions in real estate, finance and insurance, construction, information, and recreation continue to fall. So, especially if you're looking to hire in the latter industries, how can you increase the likelihood of catching the eyes of top talent? We recommend personalizing…

Does Your EVP Support Your Business Long-Term?

It's been said time and again that the pandemic has taught many employees the importance of being adaptable and agile in the workforce in order to anticipate changes as abrupt and sudden as the ones we all faced in 2020. But what many overlook or forget from this lesson is that employers themselves too must remain agile in anticipation of rapid and drastic change. After all, the job market is changing drastically regularly, and with demands for in-office work on the rise once more, it is sure to fluctuate even more this quarter. So, how do you remain agile as…

Why the Best Candidates Are Ignored (And How to Fix It)

According to a report by Jobscan, 75% of resumes are never seen by a human because keyword-based ATS systems filter them out before reaching hiring managers. Many businesses rely on Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) to streamline their hiring process.

While ATS platforms were designed to make recruitment more efficient, they frequently end up eliminating qualified candidates who don’t fit rigid keyword criteria.
