SAP Change Managers. Anyone interested in discussing a contract kicking off in January? Outside IR35, hybrid working with travel to the South East AND exposure to a HUGE SAP Programme. You’ll need to have had recent experience of SAP transformations for this one as well as an understanding of the weird ans wonderful workings of the public sector. Get in touch for more details. **The picture is called ‘Changes’, that’s why I’ve taken a picture of it. My face, however, is completely unnecessary** #gtc #hiring #sapjobs #businesschange

People will remember those companies who treated them well at interview stage. We are firmly in an employers market but it is still fundamentally important to set a great first impression when a candidate enters a interview process with your company. ✅ Do: - Provide regular updates (No news is news) - Ensure a smooth process with the 1st and follow up interviews within a week of each other - Spend the first part of the interview selling your company and fully explaining the role - Where possible meet face to face and give your potential hire the time of day ❌ Don't: - Keep the candidate in the dark for weeks on end - Have a one way question question question style interview - Involved 7/8 stake holders with multiple rounds - Low ball a candidate after the interview Remember this is a very small market and reputations can quickly form. When the market booms and we pivot to a candidate driven market they will remember how they were treated. #interviewprocess #companyreputation #newjob #SAP #S/4HANA

The job market is seeing more fixed-term contracts as companies adapt. Some candidates are showing flexibility, but it will be interesting to see if businesses can retain this talent as the market shifts. There is an increasing amount of vacancies and offering contract or permanent is a lot more attractive for candidates. Don't think for just NOW Think for NOW and the FUTURE

We know that 75.6% of SAP contractors working inside IR35 would leave an SAP programme for a competitive opportunity that falls outside IR35 (SAP Hiring Manager’s Playbook). But the very mention of outside IR35 working can bring fear and stress to your finance and tax colleagues. To them, it’s extra admin, complexity and risk. It’s challenging to articulate the reasons why they should be more open to hiring contractors outside IR35. So, this guide aims to help hiring managers navigate that very conversation. Facts and figures that will ease the anxieties of your colleagues and make the prospect of outside IR35 working feel more comfortable. We’ve enlisted the help of Seb Maley, CEO at Qdos Contractor, to support us with the facts here. Read the guide: https://lnkd.in/eyTKWSGX

I have the pleasure of sitting down with Ray Walker CCWP this Wednesday 8th May, to discuss all things #IR35. We'll talk about the changes that came into effect in April and what that means for organizations and contractors. It got me thinking about the spotlight often shining on permanent recruitment in the realm of talent strategies, talent pooling and DE&I initiatives. Freelance or interim recruitment, on the other hand, is frequently viewed as reactive and challenging to integrate into long-term strategies. In many cases, the engagement with contractors falls outside the purview of the TA team, instead handled by a separate entity focused on project resourcing. However, as the economic landscape continues to demand adaptation, with unfortunate layoffs of permanent staff becoming more prevalent and an increasing number of workers transitioning to contracting roles, it prompts a critical question: Is it time for organizations to re-calibrate their approach to freelancer hiring? Especially if organisations are determining contractors as Inside of IR35. Whether a freelancer is engaged for a single day or a year-long project, their presence reverberates throughout organisational culture and productivity, akin to that of a permanent employee. It's important to acknowledge the impact freelancers have. I've had some interesting conversations with the team at Worksome who are doing some great work trying to bridge the gap between permanent TA strategies and freelance resource needs. Would love to hear your thoughts on the topic!

https://lnkd.in/eva-Kw8w This is an example of where AI is actually creating a human capital need. Using agencies and in house teams to phone screen candidates is increasing in importance and value to hiring managers. I am going to resist the offer from LinkedIn to Rewrite in AI 🤣
