The job hunt isn't only difficult for the candidate, but also for the company, especially with outdated hiring practices. Here's how to stay current: https://t.co/NQT0K8ga31 via @TechRepublic #OpportunityatWork

I learn something every time I discuss the #futureofwork, learning, and our economy with @OpptyatWork’s @byron_auguste. Worth watching these 2 minutes on “re-wiring the labor market” to make lifelong learning—and earning—a reality for more Americans:

Right now, there are more than 500,000 open #techjobs. In order to avoid a #skillsgap crisis, we need to change hiring practices and expand opps so people who can do the jobs get the jobs.

Now more U.S. job openings (6.7M) than unemployed actively seeking jobs (6.35M). Perfect time to re-wire the labor market ... ... to bring discouraged workers and overlooked talent off the sidelines into #career-path #jobs.

Skills > Pedigree As soon as we make this truth a reality, #skillsgap days are numbered. Insightful @SHRM report contrasts acceptance of non-BA skills markers in survey vs. continued credential inflation in job descriptions. 🤔 https://t.co/blBZziomyB by @SHRMRoy

Now is the time to create a new lane in the labor market—which allows anyone to show what they can do. We need to "screen in" based on performance, not "screen out" based on pedigree. https://t.co/Ta4jakI3oy #CEOInitiative #futureofwork

Fancy school degrees don't necessarily mean good workers.
