    互联网如何改变人力资源交流沟通 How the internet has changed HR communications 作者:Kathryn Moody@KatMMoody如今,人力资源职能已脱离其行政孤岛,看起来更像是战略业务合作伙伴而非职能支持系统。 但人力资源部门特别注重一个部门:市场营销。 从在激烈的劳动力市场招聘候选人到教育员工的福利,人力资源经理倾向于将精心设计的员工体验营销与日益复杂化 - 以至于品牌甚至可以被视为内部和外部的人力资源职能。 “在过去十年左右的时间里,人力资源的大部分工作已经发展得像营销一样,”Aon战略咨询沟通团队的高级合伙人Jim Hoff告诉HR Dive。“雇主看待这就像试图建立就业经验,而不仅仅是让人们进出。” 但是改变了什么?为什么现在发生这种情况?至少有一项关键的技术创新可能是罪魁祸首:互联网。 “有一个总体概念,因为互联网,人们负责媒体,”IdeaMACHINE Studio的创始人兼创意总监Steve Day告诉HR Dive。随着媒体变得更加人性化,公司也不得不改变自己的调整,以更好地适应新常态。 品牌的力量(有限) Hoff表示,人才越来越多地被那些拥有“极好的企业品牌”的组织所吸引 -品牌能够提供强大的客户体验,或者在更广泛的文化意识中享有盛誉。但是,现在的人力资源和过去的人力资源部门之间的巨大差异在于,员工更加敏锐地意识到他们作为客户的经历何时与他们作为员工的经历不符,他补充道。 “很难掩盖公司内部发生的事情,”Kununu首席营销官Dan Sirk告诉HR Dive。“真正有趣的是......现实是内部和外部的反射对齐最终符合双方的最佳利益。” 如果申请人的出售符合他们的文化期望 -无论是通过强大的客户体验还是坚实的面试 -但是当他们加入时经历相反的情况,那个人很可能会很快离开。Sirk说,一家致力于揭示公司真实工作经验的公司最终将拥有一支更好,更快乐的员工队伍。 Hoff说,千禧一代和年轻员工特别注意外部品牌和内部体验之间的差异,并且“明确表达了对体验的要求”。其中一部分与年轻工人如何“成长”经历有关 -以及如何通过数码镜头告诉全世界某些事情。 科技(和互联网)一直在改变游戏 古老的格言是,就技术而言,人力资源在客户参与方面落后了10年,但这种差距正在迅速缩小。 霍夫说:“我现在已经看了二十年了,人力资源和福利在采用技术或新技术方面相当落后,而且我看到在过去几年中收缩率相当显着。” 人力资源甚至可以找到曾经明确用于营销领域的工具,例如可以随时随地访问的在线视频(并且与以往的80年代培训视频完全不同)。 “营销团队有电视广播,”戴说。“现在HR拥有相同的电视广播,因为它是互联网。” 例如,移动设备可访问的视频可以让人力资源经理访问公司电视上播放的老式视频无法提供的参与数据和分析,例如观看时间指标。而且它们也更容易分享。 “员工成为这个品牌大使要容易得多,”霍夫说。Day说,员工有多种渠道可以通过移动电话获取信息和共享信息 -而且这只是“移动geddon”的开始。领先一步,鼓励员工参与,而不是等待潜在的灾难,这是关键。 人力资源和市场营销作为部门合力 由于这种轻松,人力资源和市场营销越来越多地被迫联合起来,或者通过借用彼此的策略,或者在某些情况下,将两者结合在一起。 例如,候选人池是直接来自营销101的概念,Sirk说。让人们对公司感兴趣然后交付给感兴趣的个人数据库是一个简单的概念,但这对于人力资源的成功至关重要,特别是随着招聘技术的全面提升。 但是这些努力已经抵消了一个有点困难的事实:许多人力资源从业者根本没有接受过营销教育或者需要什么 -而营销部门也有自己的关注点。Sirk说,他们真的没有时间关心人力资源方面。 “所以公司必须开发出一种能够专注于它的功能,”他说,“无论是在市场营销方面还是在人力资源方面都要实现这一目标。” 专门针对社交媒体,审查网站管理等的“招聘营销”部门可以将人力资源经理和营销人员的力量结合起来,以利用两者的专业知识。 霍夫说:“两个部门都逐渐意识到他们在业务增长方面具有战略地位。” 警告:内部和外部品牌不能总是匹配 Sirk说,虽然许多公司将从内部和外部品牌的统一中受益,但有时公司需要传达两者之间的关键差异。 例如,一家有意识地将自己定位为可靠的“大型机械”公司的公司可能无法使用这种确切的形象来获得该公司即将开展的项目所需的技术人员。在这种情况下,可能需要员工和客户之间的信息差异。 “他们需要做的是建立用户群的认知,但在雇主方面说'我们是一家年复一年取得重大突破并改善数百万人生活的科技公司',”Sirk说。 而这个图像差距的问题甚至没有涉及招聘中的其他活动部分,如场所或竞争状态。招聘热衷于在这方面变得更加复杂。 一个更人性化的商业世界 在后#MeToo世界中,雇主甚至看到以更加面向公众的方式处理敏感但重要的人力资源问题的价值。 去年12月,Facebook公开分享了自己的骚扰政策,以提高科技行业的透明度-这个行业特别受到周围几个月性骚扰指控的影响。霍夫推测,我们可以看到更多的公司采取这样的行动,特别是当品牌资产与公司在公共领域的行为方式紧密相关时。 “现在这些东西交织在一起......拥有强有力的政策并强制执行它是您与客户和员工信任的一部分,”他说。“人们想要去负责任的雇主。” 至于在更广泛的范围内看起来如何,到目前为止,在这个问题上还没有“完全证实的剧本”,霍夫补充道。但是,建立稳固的品牌资产和信任的组织可能会看到客户和员工的成功,因此在面临危机时更具弹性。   以上AI翻译,仅供参考,英文原文可以访问: https://www.hrdive.com/news/how-the-internet-has-changed-hr-communications/530307/

    联合利华如何开发新的EVP和雇主品牌 以下由AI翻译,仅为传递信息。文后附录英文版本,供参考。不喜勿入。 联合利华是一家销售快速消费品的全球性公司,其目的是使可持续生活变得平凡。您将认可Ax / Lynx,Ben&Jerry's,Dermalogica,Dollar Shave Club,Dove,Hellmann's,Knorr,Lipton和Magnum等消费品牌。但雇主品牌呢? Anuradha Razdan是联合利华的人力资源,家庭护理副总裁兼全球人才吸引和雇主品牌负责人。 在这次采访中,她向我们介绍了公司的文化和目的,以及他们最近如何开发和推出新的雇主价值主张(EVP)。 请听下面的剧集,继续阅读摘要并确保订阅  雇主品牌播客。   收听  Apple Podcast,  Stitcher Radio,  Google Play  或  SoundCloud。 您如何描述联合利华的文化? 当我加入联合利华时,令人惊讶的是,我对公司了解不多。只是它是我们校园里最有抱负的雇主。每个人都希望成为公司的一部分,当然我知道一些消费者品牌,但不了解业务的复杂性。任何通过联合利华面试程序完成任务的人都会被选中,面试过程本身就是成功的。 为什么我留下来是另一回事。首先,这是一个关心有所作为的企业。当然,我们希望创造成果和利润,但我们也想创造一个更美好的世界,我们希望我们的员工和利益相关者参与这一旅程。源于联合利华所拥有的遗产的价值观和职业道德,这使我们有了更大的目标,它会破坏你。这是一种文化,让你想进来,每天都发挥最大的作用。20年后,我经历了如此多的经历和角色,但却没有疲倦和无聊的感觉,这让我一直在努力。 可持续发展如何成为业务战略的一部分? 联合利华的独特之处在于,商业战略的核心是可持续性。我们建立品牌的方式以及我们在整个业务中制定流程的方式都是可持续的设计。我们在未来四五年内制定了明确的路线图和目标。这是我们所做的一切的核心,每一个加入联合利华的人都参与其中,感觉被这种感觉所吸引,并为此感到自豪。 您面临哪些人才挑战? 今天,我们作为雇主的吸引力处于历史最高水平,因为我们通过校园调查,全世界的大学评分来衡量它。我们是我们雇用的40多个市场中的首选雇主。 但即使我们提高了吸引力的标准,我们的人才环境也会受到干扰,就像我们的客户和渠道被打乱一样。人才画布不再是同质的,我们业务的不同部分的人才需求是不同的,因此没有一个适合所有人。因此,我们需要能够塑造并提供一个在看似悖论的世界中取得成功的人才战略。一方面,随着技术寻求取代人,你就拥有了多余的人才。同样,在你想要提高技能的领域,无论是数字营销还是精准营销,你都有人才短缺 - 这些都是我们为未来培养技能所需要的,但却存在差距。在同一时间存在着太少而不够的二分法。 告诉我们您的雇主品牌战略? 雇主品牌战略来自我们的人才挑战; 在一个日益中断的世界中需要具有吸引力。没有一个雇主品牌活动或消息。当然,除此之外还有核心执行副总裁; 你不可能拥有一个全球雇主品牌,而是依靠它。每一次雇主品牌之争,每一次人才挑战都会在市场上赢得,而这正是真实时刻所在。这是我们雇主品牌战略的核心。 同样地,它正在逐渐远离你想要赢得所有胜利的地方,以赢得重要的地方。从一致的方法到差异化的方法,取决于您想要雇用的特定微细分市场。 它不再是关于公司传达的自上而下的活动和吸引力。这不再是事实的唯一来源。人才无处不在,你周围有关于你无法控制的谈话。因此,雇主品牌战略必须与真实的员工体验非常一致。因此,它不是一个从外到内的,而是一个由内而外的雇主品牌战略。 你是如何开发新的EVP的? 联合利华是一家打造优秀品牌的公司; 我们的雇主品牌必须反映这一点。就像我们制作任何产品品牌一样,我们接触了这个雇主品牌的发展。我们完成了一项详尽的研究,涵盖了300个内部和外部的声音,我们对竞争对手和我们认为有抱负的其他雇主品牌进行了基准测试。我们通过内部,外部,营销领导者,我们不同的目标受众对人才进行了广泛的测试和验证,并且在此过程中,我们了解到,对于雇主品牌产生影响,它必须是可信的,相关的,差异化的和有抱负的。 什么是新的EVP? 联合利华是一家真正关心有所作为的企业,这是我们雇主品牌和执行副总裁的核心。当你加入联合利华时,它不仅仅是一份工作; 你正在加入一个运动,以创造一个更好的企业,一个更美好的世界,一个更好的你。你不仅仅是你的职位,因为你通过自己的工作在世界上创造了更大的影响力。 我们价值主张的核心是我们建立领导者......我们为联合利华培养领导者,联合利华领导人继续成为世界其他地方的领导者。 什么支柱支撑着EVP? 目的力量 - 可持续发展是我们所做一切的核心。目标的力量是我们员工经验的核心,我们通过将您的目标付诸行动,您可以说您有权对世界和我们的业务产生积极影响。这不仅仅是一份工作; 这是一个通过做一些你热爱的事情来改变自己的机会。 成为催化剂 - 你可以成为世界变革的催化剂,你可以释放你的好奇心,你可以扰乱过程,你可以用你的开拓精神来实现目标。 卓越的不同 - 就像我们的产品品牌都不同,但他们在一个联合利华的保护伞下聚集在一起。作为个体,我们都是不同的; 我们可以把真正的自我带到工作中。在联合利华,我们可以结合差异来实现更大的目标。 超越 - 这不仅仅是一个公司,这是一个你可以超越的地方,体验的质量,互动的质量,当你提供更多,你得到更多。 这四大支柱使EVP成为独一无二的联合利华,特别是目的动力。 你如何沟通和激活这个? 我们很容易想出一个声明,一些我们都很兴奋的话。但最终,它必须被翻译,并且必须帮助我们赢得在我们赢得雇主品牌战斗的各个市场中的最佳人才。接下来发生的事情是我们将部署一些全球和本地渠道; 数字化,面对面,以更广泛地覆盖我们的员工价值主张。 我们还创建了一个旨在提升品牌知名度的英雄活动,它被称为“你不仅仅是你的职位”,而且它带出了目标力量这一整体概念,这对我们来说是一个品牌。我们相信这会产生大量的对话,并成为员工倡导的工具。 最后,我们不是建立雇主品牌的人。这是我们的员工,它是我们在50多个市场的雇主品牌经理,他们将与我们一起制定策略和本地激活想法,以实现这一目标。 你能与我们分享哪些艰苦的教训? 人们可以将公司的吸引力,雇主品牌视为理所当然,直到它消失为止。我是一个企业的一部分,总是享有非常有吸引力的地位,并获得最优秀的人才。我们听到了业务中的对话,“这种努力真的值得,我们为什么要把这么多的预算和资源投入雇主品牌?”。 而这就是你真正处于悬崖边缘的地方,这是一个真正值得关注的地方。在那个时候的那个行业中,我们踩下脚踏板,在最初几年没有发生任何事情,因为很明显,雇主品牌的力量不会在一两年内消失。但是慢慢地,我们开始看到人才质量的影响,这些影响会导致面试,接受其他报价的人数以及将其他竞争对手列为梦想雇主的人数。我们看到排名开始下降,比任何排名更重要的是你雇用的人才质量。 这不是立刻出现的东西,但幸运的是,对我们来说,其中一些指标给了我们一个真正的震撼,我们重置并回来了一声巨响。那是一个真正的谦卑时刻,这是一个我不会忘记的真正教训。 您如何衡量雇主品牌的投资回报率? 雇主品牌的投资回报大于通过指标和衡量工具看到的投资回报。这是最大的无形影响。 我怎么知道这个?如果您想衡量一项计划的影响,您必须考虑以下三点: 走廊里的谈话是什么? 什么是外部媒体说这个?  指标有哪些?  我们会考虑一些指标,例如申请人数量和接受报价的数量等。一个非常有趣的衡量标准是雇主品牌指数,它倾听社交媒体和在线发生的对话,从而对雇主的成功有一个综合的看法。品牌是,这是我们可以追踪的东西。 您对雇主品牌经理的三大建议是什么? 如果你感受到真正的激情,并且如果你感觉到它在你的骨头里,那么只能扮演这个角色。因为雇主品牌是一件你不能再做的事情,所以你不仅要感受到真正的热情。有一个明确的理由,说明为什么雇主品牌对您的业务有意义,并坚持这一点,无论内部的挑战或问题是什么。 向您所在行业的营销人员学习。使用相同的技术并围绕雇主品牌建立科学,这不仅仅是蓬松和创造性的东西。 您为员工和业务负责人注册的权利越多,您的工作就越容易,因为您创建的级联影响远大于您必须投入的努力。 查看联合利华职业网站。   以下为英文内容 : https://linkhumans.com/unilever/ Unilever is a global company selling fast-moving consumer goods, whose purpose it is to make sustainable living commonplace. You will recognize consumer brands such as Axe/Lynx, Ben & Jerry’s, Dermalogica, Dollar Shave Club, Dove, Hellmann’s, Knorr, Lipton, and Magnum. But what about the employer brand? Anuradha Razdan is Vice President HR, Home Care and Head of Global Talent Attraction and Employer Brand at Unilever. In this interview, she talks us through the culture and purpose of the company, and about how they recently developed and launched a new employer value proposition (EVP). Have a listen to the episode below, keep reading for a summary and be sure to subscribe to the Employer Branding Podcast. Listen on Apple Podcasts, Stitcher Radio, Google Play or SoundCloud. How would you describe the culture at Unilever? When I joined Unilever, surprisingly, I didn’t know much about the company. Only that it was the most aspirational employer that came to hire at our campus. It was the company that everyone wanted to be a part of, sure I knew some of the consumer brands but not the intricacies of the business. Anyone who made it through the Unilever interview process felt so thoroughly selected, the interview process was a success in itself. Why I’ve stayed on is another matter. First and foremost, this is a business that cares about making a difference. Of course, we want to create results and profits, but we also want to create a better world, and we want our employees and stakeholders to be part of this journey. The values and professional ethics that stem from the legacy that Unilever has, and that has kept us with the larger purpose, it spoils you. It’s a culture that makes you want to come in and give your best every day. 20 years down the line, I’ve been through so many experiences and roles, and yet there has been no sense of fatigue & boredom, and that has kept me going. How is sustainability part of the business strategy? What is unique with Unilever is that the business strategy has sustainability at its heart. The way we build our brands and the way we craft processes across the business are all sustainable by design. We have a clear roadmap and goals that we have set across the next four or five years. It’s at the heart of everything we do, and everyone who is a part of Unilever is enrolled in this, feels bought into this and feels proud of this. What talent challenges are you faced with? Today our attractiveness as an employer is at an all-time high, as we measure it through campus surveys, university scores across the world. We’re the #1 employer of choice in more than 40 markets where we hire. But even as we raise the bar on our attractiveness, our talent context is being disrupted, just like our customers and channels are being disrupted. The talent canvas is no longer homogenous, and the talent needs in different parts of our business are different, and therefore there is no one-size-fits-all. Hence, there is a need for us to be able to shape and deliver a talent strategy that can be successful in a world of seeming paradoxes. On the one hand, you have surplus talent as technology seeks to replace people. Equally, you have talent shortages in areas where you want to ramp up skills, whether it’s digital or precision marketing – these are where we need to build skills for the future, but yet there are gaps. There is a dichotomy of too little and not enough at the same time. Tell us about your employer brand strategy? The employer brand strategy draws from our talent challenges; the need to be attractive in a world that is increasingly disrupted. There is no one employer brand campaign or message. Of course, there is a core EVP but other than that; you can’t have one global employer brand and rest on that. Every employer brand battle, every talent challenge is won in the market, that’s where the moment of truth is. That’s at the heart of our employer brand strategy. Equally, it’s moving away from a view where you want to win everywhere to winning where it matters. From a consistent approach to a differentiated approach depending on what the specific micro-segments you want to hire are. It’s no longer about one top-down campaign and attractiveness that is communicated by the company. That is no longer the single source of truth. Talent is everywhere, and there are conversations about you, around you that you don’t control. Therefore the employer brand strategy has to be something which is very consistent with the real employee experience. And thus it’s not an outside-in, but an inside-out employer brand strategy. How did you develop the new EVP? Unilever is a company that builds excellent brands; our employer brand has to be a reflection of this. We approached this employer brand development just like we craft any of our product brands. We completed an exhaustive piece of research, covering 300 internal and external voices, we benchmarked our competitors, and other employer brands we think are aspirational. And we extensively tested and validated this with talent internally, externally, marketing leaders, our different target audiences, and in that process, we learned that for an employer brand to make an impact, it has to be credible, relevant, differentiating and aspirational. What is the new EVP? Unilever is a business that genuinely cares about making a difference, and this is at the core of our employer brand and EVP. When you join Unilever, it is not just a job; you are joining a movement to create a better business, a better world, and a better you. You are more than your job title because you create a much bigger impact in the world through the work that you do. At the heart of our value proposition is that we build leaders… we develop leaders for Unilever, and Unilever leaders go on to be leaders elsewhere in the world. What pillars underpin the EVP? Purpose Power – sustainability is at the core of everything we do. The power of purpose is at the heart of our employee experience, where we say that you are empowered to make a positive impact on the world and our business, by bringing your purpose into action. This is more than a job; this is an opportunity to make a difference by doing something you’re passionate about. Be the Catalyst – you can be a catalyst for change in the world, you can unleash your curiosity, you can disrupt processes, you can use your pioneering spirit to make things happen. Brilliantly Different Together – like our product brands are all different, and yet they come together under one Unilever umbrella. As individuals, we are all different and yet; we can bring our real selves to work. In Unilever, we can combine our differences to achieve greater things. Go Beyond – this is not just a company, this a place where you can go beyond, with the quality of experiences, the quality of interactions and when you give more, and you get more. These four pillars make the EVP uniquely Unilever, especially Purpose Power. How do you communicate and activate this? It’s very easy to come up with a statement, a few words which we all get excited about. But at the end of the day, it has to be translated and has to help us win the best talent in the various markets where we win the employer brand battles. What’s happening next is that we will deploy a number of global and local channels; digital, face-to-face to give a wider reach to our employee value proposition. We also created a hero campaign which is designed to boost brand awareness, it’s called “You’re more than your job title,” and it brings out this whole notion of purpose power which is so core to us as a brand. And we believe this will generate a lot of conversations and serve as a vehicle for employee advocacy. Finally, we’re not the people who build the employer brand. It’s our employees, it’s our employer brand managers in over 50 markets, and they will work with us to tailor strategies and local activation ideas to bring this to life. What hard lessons can you share with us? One can take attractiveness of a company, of an employer brand for granted until it goes away. I was part of a business which always enjoyed the position of being very attractive and getting the best of the best talent. We heard conversations in the business along the lines of “is this effort really worth it, why should we put so much budget and resource into employer brand?”. And that is the point where you’re really at the edge of the cliff, and that’s a real watch out. In that business at that point in time, we took our foot off the pedal, and nothing happened in the first few years because obviously, the power of an employer brand is not something that fades in a year or two. But slowly and slowly we started seeing the impact in the quality of talent that would turn up for interviews, in the number of people who would accept other offers and who would list other competitors as dream employers. We saw rankings beginning to dip, and more important than any ranking is the quality of talent that you hire. This is not something that shows up immediately, but luckily for us, some of these indicators gave us a real jolt, and we reset and came back with a bang. That was a real moment of humility, and it’s a real lesson I will not forget. How do you measure ROI on employer brand? The return on investment of an employer brand is bigger than what one might see through metrics and measurement tools. It’s the intangible impact which is the biggest. How would I know this? If you want to measure the impact of an initiative you have to look at three things: What are the conversations in the hallways? What is the external press saying about this?  What are the metrics saying?  We look at metrics such as the volume of applicants and how many accept offers etc. One very interesting measurement is the Employer Brand Index which listens to social media and conversations taking place online, to come to a compositive view of what the success of the employer brand is, and this is something we can track over time. What are your top 3 tips to employer brand managers? Only take this role on if you feel real passion and if you feel it in your bones. Because employer brand is a thing you cannot do as one more thing, it’s not just a job you have to feel true passion for this. Have a clear rationale as to why employer brand makes sense to your business and stick to that no matter what the challenges or questions might be internally. Learn from the marketers in your business. Use the same techniques and build a science around employer brand, it’s not just a thing that’s fluffy and creative. The more you enroll employees and business leaders to take ownership of this, the easier your work becomes because then you create a cascading impact which is far greater than the effort you have to put in.

    LinkedIn为招聘人员提供语音留言系统 领英(LinkedIn)宣布,将在其产品中添加语音信息,以增加用户进行对话的方式。对于招聘人员来说,这代表了一种吸引潜在求职者的新方式。 语音信息正在LinkedIn的iOS和Android应用程序中推广,你可以在手机和网络上接收语音信息。 这是它的工作原理; 点击手机短信键盘上的麦克风图标,然后点击并握住圆圈内的麦克风,录制语音信息,松开手指发送。 如果你想在发送之前取消,将你的手指从麦克风图标滑动,同时按住它。   纳什维尔IQTalent Partners的高级合伙人兼联合创始人克里斯•默多克(Chris Murdock)对我说,“这是一个很酷的想法”,但他也希望有视频。“我们倾向于在Hangouts、Zoom、Teams和Slack上看到大多数客户。当被问及他是否会鼓励他的招聘人员和客户使用这些功能时,他说,“我们可以做任何事情来让自己与众不同,并与顶尖人才接触。” 史蒂夫·利维(Steve Levy)是一位来自纽约的经验丰富的人力资源和招聘人员,他对此有不同的看法。他说,他对用它来代替文字持怀疑态度,因为他担心人们只会像语音邮件或电话营销人员那样使用它。 作为一名前招聘人员,我对这个想法表示赞赏。这有助于区分你的工作范围。但招聘人员要明智地使用它。我的建议是要让人难忘,用它来让自己从竞争中脱颖而出。 听一听它将如何被使用以及用户将如何反应,肯定会很有趣。 LinkedIn announced they are increasing the ways users can have conversations by adding Voice Messaging to its offering. For recruiters this represents a new way to engage potential candidates. Voice messaging is rolling out now in the LinkedIn app on iOS and Android, and you can receive voice messages on mobile and on web. Here’s how it will work; Simply tap the microphone icon in the mobile messaging keyboard, then tap and hold on the microphone in the circle to record your voice message and release your finger to send. If you want to cancel before sending, slide your finger away from the microphone icon while holding it down. Chris Murdock, Senior Partner and co-founder of IQTalent Partners in Nashville told me “it’s a cool idea” but he would love to also have video. “We tend to see most of our client on Hangouts, Zoom, Teams, Slack.” When asked if he will encourage his recruiters and sourcers to use the features he said yes, “anything we can do to differentiate ourselves and engage with top talent.” Steve Levy, veteran sourcer/recruiter from New York had a different take, saying he is dubious about using it in place of text, over worries that people will just use it like voicemail or telemarketers. As a former recruiter myself I applaud the idea. It can help differentiate your outreach. But it will be up to recruiters to use it wisely. My advice is be memorable and use it to set yourself apart from the competition. It will certainly be interesting to hear how it will be used and how users will respond. LinkedIn introduces voice messaging system for recruiters LinkedIn has recently announced that they will expand user capabilities for communication through the addition of Voice Messaging - and for recruiters, this means a whole new avenue to getting in touch with potential hires. Voice messaging is rolling out now in the LinkedIn app on iOS and Android, and you can receive voice messages on mobile and on web. Here’s how it will work: Simply tap the microphone icon in the mobile messaging keyboard, then tap and hold on the microphone in the circle to record your voice message and release your finger to send. If you want to cancel before sending, slide your finger away from the microphone icon while holding it down.

Many tools seem shiny and oh-so-promising: you’ve done your research, worked hard to get budget and internal buy-in, rallied the team around the product, but then…sometimes it fizzles and buyer’s remorse sets in. So, what can you do proactively in anticipation of these challenges? Ask for customer references. Most teams hit the key research questions when looking for new HR tech (price, features, integrations, time to implement, etc), but the most helpful research often includes customer references. Talking to other customers is especially helpful during the decision-making process, plus can be helpful to provide insights into planning for implementation. Testimonials will provide a preview of highs and lows of implementation and help you suss out if the sales process was too good to be true or pretty spot on. Investing a couple hours to get the real scoop could save many more hours in the long run. Plus, it’s always great to connect with other awesome HR teams! Try before you buy. De-risk a huge rollout when possible. Many HR tools allow for a trial period, which allows for the intricacies of integrations or ensuring historical data to be sorted out / spotted first. Running a pilot (say for 6–12 weeks) provides enough time to gather data on how engaging the product is as well as how much of the sales pitch was reality versus on the product roadmap. Usually in the first few weeks, engagement metrics spike as folks are eager to try out something new. For a tool that the entire company uses, like the HRIS or performance management system, you can first provide access to your HR department to make sure that everything looks right, and then release to the “friendliest” departments or folks who will provide helpful feedback. By positioning this as a trial period, it can allow for the tool to get up and running sooner without as big of backlash, plus more importantly, identify any major snafoos before an all encompassing rollout. Oftentimes, you can find a department or subset of employees who can try out the tool and provide feedback. This will also kickstart two key areas of momentum 1) Training of users, and 2) Identifying change agents who can help with evangelism and adoption. Naomi Davidson, founder of team effectiveness software trybe.ai, encourages customers to “learn about the long term relationship you’ll have with a vendor during the pilot. Good vendors care about supporting a successful roll out. Great vendors are long-term partners, helping to anticipate hiccups and measure success of the tool for your business.” Secure it. HR tech expert Annie Wickman, who has implemented her fair share of systems at Humu, Gusto, Etsy, and Google reminds us: Triple-check the security. Many of these systems involve transferring a lot of private data, so pull in a security expert from your team to verify everything is secure. Nothing stands in the way of a smooth transition quite like a data breach. Communicate, communicate, oh and then, communicate. Bring your leadership team and your employees along the journey. Being clear about what you’re trying to solve for (why is this tool needed), what’s different now that this new tool exists, the anticipated timeline, and what is Plan B if things go awry, will help get them comfortable. Then share any definitions for success (adoption rates, ROI, efficiencies like reduced questions to HR, etc) and track them in the coming months to show how effectively the rollout is going. Implementing a new tool takes time, which means the HR team may need more time to answer questions as you set up the resources for FAQs or get familiar with edge cases, so to the extent possible, your team should prepare both formal and informal communications. Ease the transition further and increase adoption by explaining and documenting the most common ways the tools is supposed to be used and including examples of any best practices. As with any tool, it is only as useful as the user who wields it. The more complex the tool, the more important it is that end users understand the purpose and function. Back it up. For critical systems like your HRIS, run the prior method alongside the new system for a short time (depending on the amount of data this could be a couple weeks or a couple months). While it’ll feel like double the work, the ROI is worth it as it will allow you to easily audit if the new system is doing what it needs to do. Figuring out a couple easy-to-track metrics (e.g., number of entries) will be a good sanity check and might save you a lot of work down the road if you can avoid major glitches. As you monitor these metrics, you can also get a sense for if you need to switch tactics. For example, if you see adoption decreasing for a performance development tool, perhaps you can try a team by team competition on completion of goals in the system. Or leverage role modeling of good behavior by highlighting it in the company newsletter. At the end of the day, these tips will help make the implementation faster, the organizational rollout smoother, and hopefully help users well, actually use the tools successfully.

    机器可能会带来新工作 - 他们也可以帮助我们培训新工作 这是一个有趣的观点,简单了解下,以下是AI翻译完成,仅为快速传递资讯和观点。不喜勿入。 ———————————————— 今天存在的近一半的工作岗位可能在未来几年内实现自动化。 即使是机器人无法掌握的角色的工作人员也可能会看到他们的工作随着智能技术牢固地融入工作场所而改变。 没有人能够准确预测智能机器将如何改变人类的工作世界 - 或者人们的工作将如何随着自动化同行的引入而发展。 许多问题仍然存在,但有一点是明确的:工作的未来将是不同的 - 工作人员需要学习不同的技能,以拥抱与技术共享的未来。 与此同时,世界各地的组织迫切需要设计重新培训工人的系统,并使他们与新的职业相匹配。 挑战是一个艰难而紧迫的挑战,它涉及解析大量数据并整合一组复杂的变量。 实际上,这正是AI为解决而构建的人类问题。 [来源图片:roberuto / iStock] 部署AI来解决自动化产生的问题似乎违反直觉。 但我们面临的挑战规模要求采用非常规方法。还没有人知道自动化带来的生产力增益是否能创造出比破坏更多的就业机会 - 这在以前的技术转变中已经发生过。但随着时间的推移,随需应变的技能将发生变化。 最重要的是,Pew Research最近发现,72%的美国人担心机器在工作场所接管人工任务。就业市场数据提供商Burning Glass已经发现,需要数字技能和行业专业知识的“混合”工作(如营销分析师)的帖子数量有所增加。 分析指出,很少有大学课程将这两种技能集合作为一揽子计划,这使得许多年轻人无法理解这些角色。 他们的研究结果还表明,只有少数行业认证课程真正改善了就业前景。 即将到来的自动化浪潮通常被描绘成一场零和游戏。随着机器人的崛起,人类工人被挤出去了。但现实更加微妙。 [来源图片:roberuto / iStock] 首先,技术采用与人类工作之间的反向关系不如许多人想象的那么强大。自动柜员机是银行员工推出时的特定工作杀手。然而,波士顿大学经济学家詹姆斯·贝森的研究发现,自动柜员机进入主流后,银行出纳员的数量实际上有所增加。原因是:它降低了经营分支机构的成本,因此银行开设了更多,并雇佣了更多的员工。 退一步,将机器人和人工智能系统部署到工作场所会改变就业市场所需的技能。 自动化很少能完全消除职业。通常它会占用工作的常规部分,让人们花更多的时间在创意或以关系为中心的元素上。例如,银行出纳员现在处理更少的现金提取或存款,而是需要软技能来建立客户忠诚度并帮助他们满足更广泛的财务需求。 自动化有许多积极的影响。如今,由AI驱动的自动化平台可以通过检测医学图像上的微小癌症迹象来挽救生命。在未来,它们可以帮助我们更好地了解气候变化或防范网络犯罪。人工智能和机器人也可以承担许多重复性任务,可能使工作成为人类更有益的经历。但是,除非找到有效的方法来减轻其破坏性影响并教育人们了解其变革价值,否则这些解决方案将失去公众支持。 自动化对工作的影响因行业而异,可能也会因公司而异。这就是为什么在自动化面前对职业转型的统一回应可能会变得很短。我相信最好的结果将来自为每个人进行再培训提供个性化策略,以帮助人类未来的职业生涯。 实际上,世界各地的大量工人都需要接受再培训。为自动化未来做好准备的努力将超越行业和地区,不​​仅要应对自动化,还要应对全球经济的数字化。通过帮助工作人员逐案过渡,提供自动化解决方案和混合平台的公司可以发挥主导作用,帮助人们保持对未来工作场所的相关性和关键性。 Joe Greenwood是位于多伦多的创新中心MaRS Discovery District的数据主管。

    未来10种改变游戏规则的现代招聘技巧--你不可不知道 作者:Alastair Brown是 BrightHR的首席技术官  数字革命改变了招聘。在过去十年的时间里,人们已经从传统的工作网站转向创新的新的令人兴奋的招聘工具和技术。(2018中国招聘科技论坛可见一斑) 但是,改变游戏规则的招聘技术将会影响您未来的招聘策略? 为方便你快速了解。我们简单介绍下,整体可以看我们AI翻译带来的内容。如果你不喜欢AI翻译的内容,可以访问 HRTechchina.com 阅读英文原文。   1、人工智能 在招聘技术方面,人工智能已经在企业寻找新人才的方式中发挥着重要作用。 它的崛起如此迅速,它在世界领先的媒体出版物中被报道。例如,福布斯在1月份发表了一篇题为人工智能如何改变招募游戏的文章。在这篇文章中,它承认招聘是现代企业最艰难的工作之一。人工智能可以减轻大部分的努力工作。   简化流程至关重要。这是AI特别擅长的一件事。但是什么类型的工具将引领它?以下是一些最强大的选项: 聊天机器人:快速访问候选人,确保合适的候选人,并指导他们找到合适的角色。他们是处理大量优秀人才的被动方式 - 已经很强大,他们有可能为招聘人员节省大量时间。 情感 分析:可用于在偏见或偏见语言的情况下调整工作规范。 人才 重新发现:通过ATS(申请人跟踪系统),AI可以扫描您的数据记录并找到符合该法案的先前候选人。 未来的招聘技术将越来越多地使用AI。   2.虚拟现实 VR是一个令人兴奋的前景。一些行业的VR头戴式耳机旨在比以往更大程度地与候选人接触。 利用VR显示您的业务是技术前沿的创新者。它发出了积极的信息,即使它与你的招聘策略相结合是及时和昂贵的。 来自LinkedIn的这篇文章强调了它的创新性和永远改变招聘的潜力。 许多品牌正在尝试独特的体验来改变其招聘流程 - 例如,在线商店Jet提供其商业文化的VR演示。如果他们选择在那里工作,考生可以从世界上任何地方远程访问这些,以查看他们的存储内容。 未来十年还会有更多这样的事情 - 您的企业如何将其整合到您的招聘策略中?VR的魅力在于它可以为您恰好所处的行业提供独特的解释。 3.被动候选人的崛起 已经发现了未开发的潜在候选人资源!角色中有才华的工作者并没有考虑职业变化。 以诱人的新可能性为目标 - 例如更高的工资和更多的责任 - 可能足以获得他们的兴趣。近年来,确保“被动”候选人的受欢迎程度已经大大增加,因为它可以帮助针对那些没有从一个角色跳到另一个角色的工人。 或者你可以直接找到一个受到你所提供的东西诱惑的顶级天才,或者至少让你在未来几年内放心。   4.视频面试 无论候选人居住在200英里以外还是完全在另一个国家,拖延候选人参加面试的非常古老的做法即将结束。 当我们都可以访问Skype,FaceTime,Google Hangouts以及各种其他形式的即时通信时,浪费时间和金钱。 对于所有相关人员来说,这是一个节省时间的方法 - 您可以在简短的筛选电话后删除不太合适的候选人,然后在您有一两个真正开启之后引入您的最佳选择。 如果你有潜在的海外候选人,他们可能不太热衷于参加第一阶段的面试,这一点尤其有用。   5.社交媒体 这不是最具启发性的观点,但是,是的,社交媒体可以成为招募新人的好地方。 无论是Facebook,Twitter,Instagram,Tumblr,还是LinkedIn等专业网络,您都可以找到各种易于联系的专业人士。 在招聘技术方面,这一项对于针对千禧一代和Z世代特别有效,他们倾向于使用社交媒体而不是X世代及以上。   6.申请人跟踪系统 随着大型和小型企业的兴起,ATS迅速成为招聘软件的领导者。对企业有什么好处?好吧,总结一下: 效率:在一个系统中记录所有招聘活动和候选人信息。 候选人 数据:随着人才将他们的详细信息添加到您的系统中,您可以在将来随时访问任何类似角色的工作人员库。 候选人 经验:对候选人来说更容易,因为您可以满足新的招聘期望,例如基于移动的应用程序环境。 管理员 减少:再次,取消文件柜并通过一个招聘中心简化一切 - 在办公室里不再存在多余的文件! 7 - 开放式职位 您的标准职位描述也在发生变化。一些招聘人员正在尝试新的策略,例如放弃职位。其他人甚至没有特定的规格。 其背后的想法是鼓励所有相关人员雇用高于技能的人。在最近的过去,选择具有最多经验的候选人是很常见的,因为他们必须确保这是最好的选择。 然而,经验并不能解释自然的热情,也不能说明个人是否会自然地融入您的商业文化或现有团队。如果他们非常适合您的办公室,那么培训这样的个人超过六个月或更长时间可以获得长期的回报。   8 - 新的面试技巧 新的招聘技巧带来了新的面试技巧。LinkedIn在其2018年全球招聘趋势报告中指出,旧的面试问题需要进行审核。没有更多“你在五年内看到自己在哪里?”以及更多挑战候选人思考方式的技巧。 FTSE 100人才总监Simon Armstrong在2018年5月透露,他要求候选人在采访中唱歌。如果他们不这样做,那就是面试概述。 虽然极端的例子很多工人,特别是更多内省的工人,都不会有吸引力,但还有其他的策略可供选择。让面试非正式,例如,在咖啡馆 - 喝咖啡,正确地了解你的候选人。 如果你更喜欢西蒙·阿姆斯特朗的方法,你可以随时要求他们进行霹雳舞以完成面试。   9 - 工作面试 如果您渴望测试一些重要角色的顶级候选人,那么工作试镜将为您提供一些额外的见解。 这并不理想,因为你的候选人可能会紧张或不开心你不相信他们的简历中所表现出的专业精神,但它可以提供他们如何开展工作的基本见解。 为了吸引候选人参加试镜,您可以支付他们工作的一天,为他们提供免费午餐,并确保他们在您的工作场所经验丰富的一天为他们提供指导。   10 - Glassdoor 在招聘领域出现的是这项工作搜索,并且至关重要的是公司审查平台。是的,现在是前任或现在,工作人员可以自然地审查业务,这可能导致一些心怀不满的工人离开你时,你的业务私人运作可能不会过于自豪。 该网站越来越受欢迎。它可能成为许多年轻工人的首选来源,他们正在寻找有关为您的企业工作的深刻细节。他们是否因加班而获得报酬?工作/个人生活平衡是什么样的?如果犯了错误,首席执行官是否喜欢向员工扔东西?所有这一切现在都可以揭晓,所以现在是解决企业日常工作中任何挥之不去的缺陷的好时机。   作者:Alastair Brown是 BrightHR的首席技术官 The company is a leading HR and employment law specialist, with offices in Manchester city center. He’s responsible for leading innovate HR projects that help clients to streamline their day-to-day activities. The digital revolution has transformed recruitment. In the space of a decade, there’s been a move away from traditional job websites to an innovative world of new and exciting recruitment tools and techniques. But what are the game-changing recruiting techniques that’ll shape your hiring strategy in the future? Here’s an expert insight.   1. AI When it comes to recruiting techniques, Artificial intelligence is already playing a huge role in the way businesses find new talent.   Its rise has been so meteoric it’s being reported in the world’s leading media publications. Forbes, for instance, ran an article in January titled How AI is Changing The Game For Recruiting. In this piece, it acknowledges recruitment is one of the toughest jobs modern businesses have. AI could alleviate a large proportion of the hard work.   Streamlining the process is essential. That’s one thing AI is exceptionally good at. But what type of tools are going to lead its charge? Here are few of the most powerful options: Chatbots: Quickly access candidates, secure suitable candidates, and can direct them to the right role. They’re a reactive way of dealing with the mass of excellent talent—already powerful, they have the potential to save recruiters a lot of time. Sentiment analysis: Can be used to adjust job specs in the event of biased or off-putting language. Talent rediscovery: With an ATS (Applicant Tracking System), AI can scan your data records and find previous candidates who fit the bill.   Future recruiting techniques will increasingly use AI.   2. Virtual reality VR is an exciting prospect. Some industries have VR headsets designed to engage with candidates to a greater extent than ever before.   Utilising VR shows your business is an innovator at the cutting edge of technology. It sends out positive messages, even if it’s timely and expensive to integrate into your recruitment strategy.   This post from LinkedIn highlights its innovative nature and potential to change recruitment forever.   Many brands are trying out distinctive experiences to shake up their hiring process—online store Jet, for instance, offers a VR demonstration of its business culture. Candidates can access this remotely from anywhere in the world to see what’s in store for them, should they choose to work there.   Expect a lot more of this in the decade to come—how could your business integrate it into your hiring strategy? The beauty of VR is it allows for unique interpretations for whichever industry you happen to be in.   VR is one of the recruiting techniques that could change recruitment forever.   3. The rise of passive candidates An untapped source of potential candidates has been discovered! It’s the talented workers in roles who aren’t considering a career change.   Targeting them with tempting new possibilities—such as a higher wage and more responsibility—may be enough to gain their interest. The popularity of securing “passive” candidates has shot up in recent years, as it can help to target workers who aren’t jumping from role to role.   Or you could just outright snag a top talent tempted by what you have to offer, or at least place you on their radar for the years to come.   4. Video interviews Whether a candidate lives 200 miles away or in another country entirely, the terribly archaic practice of dragging candidates in for interviews is coming to an end.   It’s a waste of time and money when we all have access to Skype, FaceTime, Google Hangouts, and various other forms of instantaneous communication.   It’s a time saver for all concerned—you can remove the less suitable candidates after a brief screening call and then bring in your top selection once you have one or two you’re really set on.   This is particularly useful if you have potential candidates abroad, who might not be too keen on getting a flight in for a first stage interview.   Video interviews can significantly increase your candidate pool.   5. Social media This isn’t the most revelatory point to make but, yes, social media can be a great place to head to recruit.   Whether it’s Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Tumblr, or professional networks such as LinkedIn, you can find all manner of professionals who are easy to get in touch with.   In terms of recruiting techniques, this one’s particularly effective for targeting millennials and generation Z, who tend to use social media more than generation X and above.   Social media can be a great source to find candidates.   6. Applicant Tracking Systems On the rise with large and small businesses, the ATS has rapidly emerged as the leader in recruitment software. What are the benefits for businesses? Well, in summary: Efficiency: Log all your hiring campaigns and candidate information all in one system. Candidate data: With talent adding their details to your system, you have ready access to a pool of workers for any similar roles in the future. Candidate experience: It’s easier on candidates as you can cater to new hiring expectations, such as mobile-based application environments. Admin reduction: Again, do away with filing cabinets and streamline everything through one recruitment hub—no more excess of files lying about in your office!   An ATS can be very useful when it comes to talent acquisition.   7 – Open-ended job posts Your standard job descriptions are also changing. Some recruiters are trying out new tactics, such as leaving off job titles. Others have even left off specific specifications.   The idea behind it is to encourage all concerned to hire people above skills. In the recent past, it’s been common to choose the candidate with the most experience, under the belief this must, surely, be the best option.   Yet experience doesn’t account for natural enthusiasm, nor whether an individual will naturally fit into your business culture or your existing team. If they’re a great fit for your office, training such an individual up over six months or longer can reap dividends in the long-term.   8 – New interview techniques With new recruiting techniques come new interview techniques. LinkedIn has noted in its 2018 Global Recruiting Trends report that old interview questions need reviewing. No more “Where do you see yourself in five years?” and plenty more techniques to challenge the way candidates think.   FTSE 100 Talent Director Simon Armstrong revealed in May 2018 he asks candidates to sing during interviews. If they don’t, it’s interview overview.   While an extreme example a lot of workers, particularly more introspective ones, wouldn’t find appealing, there are other tactics available. Make the interview informal, for instance, at a café—over a coffee, get to know your candidate properly.   If you prefer Simon Armstrong’s approach, you could always ask them to perform a breakdance to conclude the interview.   9 – Job auditions If you’re eager to test out a few of your top candidates for an important role, then a job audition will provide you with some extra insights.   It’s not ideal, given your candidate might be nervous or unhappy you don’t trust the professionalism indicated on their CV, but it can provide essential insights into how they go about their job.   To tempt candidates into taking the audition, you could pay them for their day at work, provide them with a free lunch, and ensure they’re mentored through the day by an experienced hand at your workplace.   10 – Glassdoor Emerging on the recruitment scene is this job searching and, crucially, company reviewing platform. Yes, now former, or current, staff can review a business—naturally, this can lead to some disgruntled workers leaving you with a scathing 1/5 with private workings of your business you might not be overly proud of.   The site is becoming increasingly popular. It could become the go-to source for many younger workers looking for insightful details about what it’s like working for your business. Do they get paid for overtime? What’s the work/personal life balance like? Does the CEO like to throw things at staff if they make a mistake? All can now be revealed, so it’s a good time to iron out any lingering foibles in your businesses’ daily workings.
