Linkowisko #7 - Newsletter Artura Kurasińskiego

May 02, 2021

Większość z Was pewnie weekend spędzi poza domem, ale mam nadzieję, że część z tych, którzy zostaną w domach (jak ja) znajdzie czas na przeczytanie najważniejszych informacji z zakresu technologii z mijającego tygodnia. A w czwartek drugi newslleter!

PS Jeśli spodobało Ci się ten newsletter to tutaj możesz mnie wesprzeć. Wyceniłem koszt miesięcznego wsparcia (8 wydań) na 12 złotych. Jeśli uznasz, że to co pisze i wiedza jaką przekazuję ma dla Ciebie sens to zapraszam do wspierania. Dziękuję!

PADA? DZIECI SIĘ NUDZĄ? TO KUP IM TEN KOMIKS!

Jak pewnie wiecie wydałem drugą część komiksu edukacyjnego o technologii i nauce dla dzieci. 206 stron komiksu z 13 lekcjami programowania Scratch i mnóstwem super treści!

Obecnie część druga (jak i pierwsza!) są w sprzedaży w moim sklepie (wybrałem self publishing więc nie szukajcie komiksu nigdzie indziej).

Oprócz samych komiksów możecie kupić zeszyt kreatywny z zadaniami oraz grę edukacyjną dla całej rodziny. Pracowałem ciężko nad stworzeniem i wydaniem tych komiksów. Teraz czas żebyście ocenili czy są tego warte.

CZY PODCASTY MOGĄ REKRUTOWAĆ PRACOWNIKÓW?

Większość rekruterów poświęca 30 sekund na to, by sprawdzić, czy kandydat spełnia przynajmniej wymogi formalne. Często zdarza się, że kandydat poświęci tyle samo na czytanie ogłoszenia rekrutacyjnego, a potem i tak pomyli oferty pracodawców. A to dopiero początek kłopotów. Brzmi znajomo?

W połowie 2020 podjęliśmy eksperyment, tworząc ogłoszenia rekrutacyjne w formie podcastu. Rezultaty okazały się fantastyczne - rekordowa liczba pełnych odsłuchań materiału, tysiące osób sprawdzających szczegóły ogłoszenia i ogromny napływ aplikujących, którzy… doskonale wiedzieli, o co chcą zapytać w trakcie rozmowy kwalifikacyjnej.

Nasza realizacja dla Nokia Solution and Network sp. z o.o. "Nokia Stories" dostała wyróżnienie w konkursie Liderzy Rekrutacji w kategorii "Innowacyjność". W tym plebiscycie nagrodzone zostały najlepsze kampanie rekrutacyjne roku 2020. Seria przygotowana przez nas dla Nokii stała się przykładem na to, że tradycyjne rozwiązania rekrutacyjne wciąż można wykorzystać w nowy sposób, zwiększając drastycznie ich skuteczność. Nie zawsze trzeba decydować się na headhunting.

Jeśli reprezentujesz:

  • dużą firmę, która prowadzi stałą rekrutację

  • firmą rekrutacyjną, która chce włączyć naszą ofertę do swojego portfolio świadczonych usług rekrutacyjnych

  • szkołę wyższą lub Uniwersytet
