In this episode of voices, I speak with Andrea Zavakos, Director of Human Resources Consulting with Brower Insurance. Andy is a highly respected authority in the field of Human Resources, and she has a lot to say about how the field is evolving. Listen along and hear her thoughts on social media, company culture, job hunting, HR best practices, and more. My thanks to Andrea for the interview.
Andy gave same great insight on how HR is evolving and the trends that we are currently seeing in the workforce. Thanks!
Andy, as usual, keeps it real. She gave some great HR tips and information regarding the ever-evolving trends of HR.
I completely agree with the comment David made about closure. I send a brief letter to all applicants for closure purposes. I don’t want to leave anyone hanging, and I agree that this is a good marketing tool for the company. It really is all about promoting yourself in the right way and promoting your corporate culture. You want to attract the right applicants from the start. If you attract and hire the right applicants there is less chance for turnover which is a very costly scenario for employers.
Andy, thanks for reminding me to market to my own employees. I also appreciate your insights regarding the soft skills that can sometimes be forgotten.
Fascinating conversation about an interesting side of business that it seems to me that many organizations think too little about.
Andrea, great interview you gave late March, which says so much about your passion and understanding of leading edge trends in human resources management.Thanks
