We've been here a while: https://t.co/xv33m8KSwy It's cozy, there's tea, and rainbows, and raised fists... 'nuff said.

We tell people to just 'be themselves' in an interview, but does anyone really show up without their professional mask? Abby discusses how redesigning recruitment has helped remove barriers, form better connections, and hire the 'right kind of folks.' https://t.co/CiwgGMbCRk

"Learning is change." ...and the raw vulnerability of it still takes us by surprise. But there is hope in the shared embodied experience of learning, (even if sometimes the night *is* dark and full of terrors) 😉. https://t.co/Axi13yhpls

When you put decision making into the hands of the community, wonderful things happen! When we started facilitating the Gateshead community bridge builders we had no idea where they would take things - but they have created community magic!

Autonomy sounds great... until you try it. What is it about 'working for ourselves' that feels so terrifying? (Hint: It's, uh, the terror... the terror is terrifying... who knew!) https://t.co/xnv32IwG1W

"We must tend to our elephants (the emotional side of us) rather than pretending that the rider (our rational side) is always in control..." https://t.co/Ak2lM5ES3Z

You never know what a job applicant has going on... https://t.co/CEiIFycUGQ

Trauma is a invisible force that contributes to our social systems getting stuck, in order to create lasting change and dismantle the structures that no longer serve us, we need to begin with the much messier, much more human, "inner work."

A blog post from our 'hiring lara' series dedicated to anyone who has ever started something new & immediately screeched into the 'Crap, I have no idea how to do this' car park. (Where there's never any free spaces, and the charges are astronomical...) https://t.co/al2iZpmHK5

Don't leave your job applicants waiting for news. They'll start making weird faces at their email folders and thinking about obscure theatre... https://t.co/3ckMTFepj4

What a way to distil the idea into the human!!

Reflecting on hiring without a CV or cover letter (comms): It felt important to allow lived experience to compete with the professional, to experiment with deconstructing the systems behind hiring, and allow people to be people - not pieces of paper! https://t.co/w4iJ95wKCo

We can't do this alone. Let's move forward together: https://t.co/lRnTrsnkE1 https://t.co/QSPD56KEYX

Interviewing the company before even applying for the job?! Yes! We gave space for candidates AND interviewers to be 'people first' during our latest experiment in recruiting - and it was one of our favourite parts! Would you try the same? https://t.co/pk7J13bUhx

Imagine being hired without a CV or a cover letter, Interviewing the company 𝑏𝑒𝑓𝑜𝑟𝑒 applying, Collaborating on your own interview questions, Or having full creative freedom during the application. Well, we actually tried it! Here's how it began:

Now, more than ever, it's important to ask: 'How do we start the process of systems change without accidentally reinstating the very structures we are trying to replace?' We think it starts with inner work. Let's talk about that! https://t.co/lRnTrsmMOt
