    Abstract: Every business wants to hire the right people and to create successful teams. And job seekers want to find rewarding positions that pay fairly and make them feel valued. But in the digital era, traditional interviewing and staffing processes are no longer effective. This report examines how the hiring process today is leaning toward new technologies, from big data to artificial intelligence to scientifically based skill assessments-all in an effort to make the process more human. Author Esther Schindler takes hiring managers, HR professionals, and job seekers through several options available for improving the way companies hire talent and the methods qualified applicants can attract attention. Two-dozen interviews with recruiters, job seekers, hiring consultants, and recruiting-software execs reveal where today's hiring process is headed. With this report, you'll discover: How hiring practices have changed due to the wide availability of data and social profiles, company information, and skills assessment Recurring problems that have broken traditional hiring practices, including assessment processes that fail to identify qualified candidates The new breed of hiring tools, including AI to tackle applicant data, virtual reality to make companies appealing, and metrics to identify talent How different recruiters view success in today's effort to remake the hiring process

    Edition: First edition.

    Abstract: Delegating work often goes awry. The software doesn't work, the invitations aren't sent out on time, or nobody shows up to staff the trade show booth. Or the work is done on time, but at the expense of team member engagement. When a project fails or just plain doesn't match your expectations as team leader, it's usually your fault. This insightful report examines the best ways to delegate work so that you not only end up with successfully completed tasks, but also a team of cheerful people- including a cheerful you. Through interviews with more than two dozen management authorities-executives, managers, leadership coaches, advisors, and authors-author Esther Schindler takes you on a journey through the process, pitfalls, and rewards of delegating work to others. Adopt a managerial attitude: learn how to cede control and trust your team Understand empowerment: know what, how, and to whom to delegate tasks Assign tasks sensibly: delegate objectives and clarify expectations Check on a task's progress: learn how to provide communication and support Judge the results through a mentor's eyes: praise your team and cope with failure

    Abstract: Telecommuting is an incredible way to work, especially for programmers and other tech workers. Besides the advantages of working from your own home (and avoiding rush hour), remote work offers independence, flexibility, and more control over your work environment.
