John Sumser posted this today to his blog:  Recently, I had the opportunity to interview the founders of The Candidate Experience Awards, and learned how this is transforming into a movement to which businesses large, and small are not paying attention.  Check out my podcast ‘Compassionate HR,’ with Gerry Crispin, Elaine Orler, and Ed Newman at http://blogtalkradio.com/comphr   What Sumser describes below is extremely important.  The candidate experience requirements are often ignored by companies, and recruiters who post their job.  Some companies think that people magically appear, as if opening a box of Lucky Charms, with the expectation that the perfect candidate is going to jump out of the box into their laps.   This isn’t how it happens, arguably as the recession subsides, and candidates are less desperate for work, they will be more discerning where they apply, and why.  Furthermore, they will remember how they were treated when they applied in the past.   In summary, check out The HRExaminer’s post today.  Comment, and let me know what you think!   I quote:   “Candidate Experience Requirements: The basic idea is that any person who visits an employment wbsite should be treated with respect, as a minimum, and delighted, as an objective.  The basic steps in the process are are delineated eloquently in today’s article.  I’d invite you to listen to my podcast with Gerry, Elaine, and Ed, as they are the founders of this movement, and this movement has teeth, and traction.  Now, take a moment to read John Sumser’s article, and leave me a comment.  I’d love your opinion.

Every now and then you have the privilege of meeting a kindred spirit in your industry.  Truly, that is what Cyndy is to me.  She’s my colleague, my confidant, and my friend.  Cyndy and I met on Twitter (where I’ve met most of my dearest colleagues).  Last week, she interviewed me for her industry website, NasRecruitment.  It was an honor, and a pleasure to be interviewed by Cyndy.  In this post, we discussed the importance of social media, and why Corporate America must embrace it.  I now give you, Cyndy. I’d appreciate it if you’d leave a comment for Cyndy.  It will make her day!

It’s time to let go.  Let new.  Let the past stay in the past.  Move on, move through, and the only way out is through…so, in the words of my new favorite band SafetySuit: Let Go

Transition means saying good bye, saying hello, shaking hands, making decisions, and reaching out for new connections, contacts, engagement, and validation…it’s about engagement, goals, decision making, and even packing, and moving…it all requires one important thing and that’s the ability to let go.

Letting go of an old job, a relationship, or even a city where you used to live requires an innate ability to release the past, both good memories and bad. William Bridges, author of ‘You & Company,’ says every new beginning begins with a good ending. Sometimes we can’t change the way things ‘end,’ but we can reframe it in our minds so we can learn the necessary insights so that we actually can start anew.

It’s a new year. I didn’t write a ‘predictions’ or ‘best of’ posts. Instead, I want to focus on the most important thing, more important than resolutions, and it’s simply this: LET GO, so you can move forward. All those new year’s resolutions won’t amount to a hill of beans until you can effectively let go of the behavior that keeps you bound to the behavior you resolve to change.

It isn’t magic, it is hard, it requires support, inspiration, care, and even friendship at times…the bottom line is this…if you want to change, be sure you are ready to act on the changes you want to make. I say, it begins with letting go.

Are you ready?
