The Haunted Chronicles of IT Recruitment 🎃
From the trenches, it’s way easier to feel the pulse of the patient, and at NBS IT Recruitment, we’ve been in the trenches for, like, forever. We’ve got inputs flying around about how the IT Recruitment world is a hot mess: fake job offers, sellers with no scruples, KPIs that make as much sense as […]
The importance of a good supplier
We just fired our SEO provider 🔥🔚 We were not happy. Despite our year-long efforts, we couldn’t establish a mutual understanding. This issue extends beyond measurable results (that weren’t good either); it’s a matter of “feeling” as well. Although it may be premature to say so – as we are still in the honeymoon phase […]
The Right to Disconnect
That time of the year has come again. Slowly but surely, holidays are coming to an end, and with that, a new season starts, bringing a few thoughts to mind. The first one is quite obvious: how important it is to switch off. And by that, I mean to completely disconnect. In the capitalist world […]
Summertime, beaches!
Summer is here and while in the south of Europe, we are melting, we prepare ourselves for our yearly hibernation, or in this case, “summernation.” Everything seems to stop. Nobody picks up the phone or responds to messages. Hiring managers become mojito managers. September looks like a distant rain cloud! It is true that we […]
About Salary Expectations
Yeah, the question. Every week, there is a meme or an article on the matter, so we’d like to give you our take on it. There is fear. It’s just like a game in which whoever shows the cards first loses, right? Candidates want to know what the salary range is in advance, and rightly […]
Happy birthday to us!
NBS IT Recruitment turns 2 this month. Who would’ve thought it? And so far, what a ride! Often times, we hear very romanticized stories about starting a company. And, in our case, that cannot be further from the truth. It wasn’t easy. It never is. Taking that leap of faith leaves you with many sleepless […]
Another gloomy post about AI (and chess…)
That’s right, ladies and gentlemen, here you have another post about AI and how it is going to destroy us all in the end, Skynet-like. I’ve always considered that it’s wise to look back at the past to see if there are any examples that relate to present situations and try to predict the future. […]
Free LinkedIn
LinkedIn is a genuinely great tool. It is so intertwined in our lives nowadays that it is easy to forget when we lived without it. It happens with many great inventions. Or even with our mind, once expanded, it is impossible to get it to its original size. And because of its importance, it is […]
Feedback on, feedback off
Today we would like to talk about a LinkedIn recurring topic that causes uproar every time it arises: feedback from job interviews. First of all, and so that there are no conflicts later, let us be clear here: every single person who does a job interview deserves to have the most detailed feedback possible, whether […]
About Ageism
Let’s address the pink elephant in the room! Amidst an acute midlife crisis (no, I am not telling you how old I am) I am going under, some subjects resonate stronger than others, and in this case, it is something I wanted to talk about for a long time… WHAT IS AGEISM? But what is […]
