I want to turn the spotlight on Talent Pools and how s1’s CV Database will help you create your very own. If you’re a tad unsure of what creating a talent pool means for your business, allow me to elucidate, for a start don’t confuse the phrase with football, infinity or car.
There’s been an awful lot espoused about talent pools, but unfortunately most offerings are generally just floundering around at the shallow end. I’m a huge fan of talent pools, and when dealt with correctly, it’s a very shrewd way to develop connections with, and get a better understanding of potential candidates. At s1jobs we have a fantastic product to help you attract the best candidates available to take that job with your business.

Now, however, enlightened employers are recognising cherished employees also need to talk to each other.
So they’ve introduced a daily ‘huddle’ at the start of every shift, when teams can get together, be briefed on the latest company news and – most importantly – chat about what’s going on in their own lives.

A dress-down day can add informality and ease tensions. Extra long lunch breaks on a Friday always go down exceedingly well.
But as HR professionals know, it’s only a combination of different elements that can truly instil confidence and contentment in employees.
So let’s look at four ways to help make everyone happy while they work.
Offer a warm welcome
Where better place to begin than right at the start: the job interview?

That’s because when you’re happy, you’re not only doing great work but likely to stick around for longer.
Any manager worth their salt knows building a dream team is tough if your line-up keeps changing.
And when the cost of replacing an employee comes in at more than £30,000, it’s no wonder good staff are worth their weight in gold: they need to be treasured, polished and allowed to shine.

It’s much like HR, in fact.
Where the most valuable asset of any company is its people, retention of staff is crucial. Equally, so is defining roles so that the entire team moves and operates like a perfectly choreographed line dance.
Achieving this means delivering training, learning and professional development for all employees, from new recruits to upper management.
