Last week I was fortunate enough to go to LinkedIn’s Talent Connect event in Las Vegas and from all accounts (mine included) it was a great event with great speakers, great content, great networking, and a great time had by all.
In the midst of all that happened and all that was said last week there was a simple comment made by one of the speakers that had the most impact – be constantly curious.
That one comment has been my ‘Field of Dreams’ moment (ie “build it and they will come”) and I am now on a mission to be more curious and open to the new in everything I do recruiting wise.
Hope you join me….
Until next time – good hunting and good luck!
if you want to see a whole slew of writeups on what went on and what was learned and shared search out #inTalent on Twitter and you will find a ton of information
Many great analogies can be made between our work as professional recruiters, and life in general. As a recruiter, we must continuously be curious of the 360 degree work environment we operate in. If we aren’t asking questions, the right questions that is, we are not consulting and we are not recruiting to the best of our abilities. This same level of curiosity can be applied to our personal lives and I felt this article was a good complement to your earlier post.
