The Master Key to Success: The Golden Rule

Nobody in your office, on your sports team, or at your networking cocktail hour shows up to be forgotten. In fact, it’s quite the contrary. Impacting your people in any environment is often achieved by becoming memorable to your audience. How do we influence others so that they not only remember our name, but also the way we made them feel? Well, it’s simply complicated or complicatedly simple.

HR Professionals and External Recruiters Can Work Together Successfully

It is important for recruiters and HR professionals to recognize that their mutual success depends on them working together, not separately, towards a common goal. Both functions working together can be a powerful engine to move an organization towards success.

Are You Really Who You Say You Are?

Well it is 2013 and it has come roaring in like a lion (I know that phrase is saved for spring but with as many job orders as we are getting it makes perfect sense). This is a good position for everyone – more job orders means companies are hiring and job seekers have a greater chance of finding their next career. It may seem simple and self-explanatory – job seekers are looking for jobs and companies are looking for employees. In order to fill these jobs however, we need to find the right fit of candidates for the open jobs. As a recruiter, this process is achieved through a series of questions, evaluations, interviews, and more to determine the top candidates for the positions. As a job seeker the best thing you can do for your career is be up-front and honest with your recruiter – we are here to help you.

Why are IT people leaving?

Today is Election Day and I think one thing we can all agree on, no matter what side of the aisle you’re on, is we will all be happy when it is over. I have never been more bombarded by ads in anytime that I can recall. Get it over with already. There’s so much gloom and doom talk regarding the employment numbers and percentages, however, I can tell you, as an IT recruiter, it’s just not the case in the IT world.

Define Your Wish List Prior to Embarking on a Job Search

“I am underpaid.”

“I can’t stand my boss.”

“I HATE my job.”

These are very powerful statements that I hear on a regular basis from normal people all around the country. These statements come from actuaries, bankers, food production professionals and sales people who are frustrated. Normal, talented, hardworking people are humbled every day by confounding professional situations that affect them both inside and outside the normal work hours – these frustrations permeate their personal lives, affecting spouses, children and others in their wake.

Aureus Group Brings Holiday Cheer to Cooper Village

As part of C&A’s annual holiday volunteer campaign called AurElves, Aureus Group once again decided to sponsor a holiday party and gifts for the young men at Cooper Village. Our group has been fortunate to do this for the past several years. Cooper Village provides a highly structured academic and residential psychiatric treatment for boys aged 12 to 18. The program is designed to “bridge the gap” for those kids who no longer need psychiatric care yet aren’t quite ready to make that transition back into their communities. The goal of the program is to help these youth return to their communities with improved ability to cope and succeed. Ideally, each young man returns home or to an alternate home such as a relative’s home.
