It has been a little over a year since I joined Dress for Success organization as a career specialist volunteer. It has been incredibly rewarding to meet and assist such amazing and interesting women with determination and passion. I look forward to continuing my relationship with such a great group of people.
This autumn Expert Recruiters took on the challenge of Mudderella, a 7 mile course up Whistler Blackcomb filled with mud, rain and lots of obstacles. We took on the challenge to “Own Your Strong” the aim of the event is about empowering women to take pride in their strength – inside and out. Lots of women are strong in different ways and this was an event our team decided could build our strength together. The event which partners with the Canadian Breast Cancer foundation is designed by women for women and proves to all that take it on that it is a challenge every day to own your strong.
As long time animal lovers and animal rights believers Expert Recruiters decided to take action and give back to the community by sponsoring the BC SCPA Paws for a Cause Walk in Vancouver. The Expert Recruiters team walked proudly with their blue feather boas around their necks and furry friends in tow in support of the BC SPCA on September 7th 2014 throughout Stanley Park.
Expert Recruiters would like to invite you to our Pink Ribbon Tea Party in aid of the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation. At Expert Recruiters this is a charity close to a number of our hearts and something that we would be honoured to help in the search for cure and support for all those affected by this disease.
Taking on an employee on a temporary basis is a great way to quickly solve a problem or fill a need without long term commitment or repercussions.
Temporary employees help with the ebbs and flows of a fluctuating workload. Whether it is peak season, year-end or a client moved up the deadline on a major project an extra pair of hands for a short period of time could be exactly what you need. Additional staff during peak periods can help with the more basic duties allowing permanent employees to focus on the more important functions, this shows your staff that you value them and will not only increase productivity but will decrease absenteeism and prevent burnout.
It’s that time again, the time where we all get a fresh start and set goals and resolutions for the upcoming year. New Year’s Resolutions have a bad reputation as being silly and often quickly forgotten however; done correctly New Year’s Resolutions can be very advantageous.
Goals boost performance however; you have to believe in what you’re doing – goals work best and are more often attained when your values align with the outcome of the goal.
