The most common thing that happens when a candidate gets turned down for a job or passed over as a candidate is that they blame the company. This episode looks back at how candidates need to reflect on what they are doing.

From a Staffing/Talent Acquisition professional perspective, we get 100s of resumes a day. For candidates who don't get calls, they often blame the staffing professional rather than themselves. If they are lucky enough to get a call, if they don't get the job, they blame the process, the market, or the hiring people. This episode is focused on what job seekers need to know to change the results.

• Listener response - blaming companies, lack of jobs, and recruiters for people not getting jobs
• Understanding the market today - recap
• The worst thing a candidate can do
• Reasons why people don't get callbacks and don't get selected
• Ways to change things - taking control and getting results.

Every day I have people contacting me on why they are not getting calls or replies to their resume. I try to explain why and often times it is met with anger or defensiveness.

The #1 Rule any company should live by is if a customer complains, let them. It doesn't necessarily make them right because they are complaining and trying to tell you how to do things. However, the last thing you should do is tell them they are wrong!

I recently had a bad experience with a big retail corporation. This episode will open your eyes to a lot of things. Most importantly, how do the people where you spend your money treat you! I realized from this experience that sometimes you need to look at the other guys like Sam's Club, BJs, or even Amazon to realize you aren't getting the best prices, value, and customer experience!

Hold on to your hats; this one is a doozy!

Special Guest: Lester Young

I admit it. I have been one of those people reluctant to work with ex-offenders under the assumption that once trouble – always trouble. However, my mindset has changed over the years. I am pleased to have Lester Young on my show today to humanize people on the other side and why we need to realize the value of people that have decided to head down the path of being a productive members of society

I’ve realized that our society often sets up those released from prison for failure through a myriad of barriers to re-entry. These barriers include employers that are unwilling to take risks on those with criminal records and landlords who are reluctant to make housing available. On the regulatory side, many professions from hair stylist to massage therapist to tattoo/piercing artist have licensing requirements that prevent those with a criminal record to obtain them.

On top of this, many people with a criminal background have a significant debt load in the form of Legal Financial Obligations (LFOs), which impacts their ability to pay for rent, transportation, child support or other basic necessities. It is no wonder that we have such a high recidivism rate.

We need to realize and recognize the need for change!

Special Guest - Edward Turner

We are desperate for drivers. However, are we really using the right approach to solve this problem?

Edward is a MILLENIAL who became a BUS DRIVER, and Now he is a Transportation Leader paving the way on the next generation of drivers! We as a country have to re-think the way we approach the transportation industry. For over 50 years it's been an old school white male-dominated industry that on average is between 57-63 years old. This HAS to change.

Edward takes a look at both the Bus Driving industry, but also drivers, in general, to help us see a new way of thinking to get these roles filled. Edward will walk us through several approaches on hiring, retaining, and growing younger people to be the Transportation LEADERS of tomorrow.
