The job hunt isn't only difficult for the candidate, but also for the company, especially with outdated hiring practices. Here's how to stay current: buff.ly/2K3PJOw via @TechRepublic #OpportunityatWork

I learn something every time I discuss the #futureofwork, learning, and our economy with @OpptyatWork’s @byron_auguste. Worth watching these 2 minutes on “re-wiring the labor market” to make lifelong learning—and earning—a reality for more Americans: xitter.cf/byron_auguste/status/1…
Right now, there are more than 500,000 open #techjobs. In order to avoid a #skillsgap crisis, we need to change hiring practices and expand opps so people who can do the jobs get the jobs.
SO. INSPIRING.
THANK YOU, @kenzanmedia, @envisiontech and @GE_Digital for sharing valuable insights on jobs in tech to GA Providence's Web Development students yesterday! We think it was an extremely informative Q&A, and hope you enjoyed participating in it as much as we did!

Skills > Pedigree
As soon as we make this truth a reality, #skillsgap days are numbered.
Insightful @SHRM report contrasts acceptance of non-BA skills markers in survey vs. continued credential inflation in job descriptions. 🤔

Now is the time to create a new lane in the labor market—which allows anyone to show what they can do. We need to "screen in" based on performance, not "screen out" based on pedigree. fortune.com/2018/06/26/fortu… #CEOInitiative #futureofwork

Appreciating engagement of leading CEOs @FortuneMagazine #CEOInitiative.
Here's the truth: everyone in this room was successful in part thanks to:
✅Coaching & guidance
✅Investment in their learning
✅Chances (hiring, promotion) to show skills
Give all Americans an @OpptyatWork xitter.cf/OpptyatWork/status/101…
People should get coached.
People should get skilled.
People should get hired.
