Gen Z is flocking to these fast-growing job markets—they're not on the coasts. (And they're not in the industries you would think.) We know Gen Z is rethinking their relationship with work differently than past generations have. And it seems they're rethinking locations and industries to focus in too. New data from LinkedIn shows the metro areas around Tucson, Arizona; Tallahassee, Florida; and Gainesville, Florida; are the fastest-growing job markets for entry-level roles. They also analyzed which industries are on a hiring spree for new talent. Here's where it gets interesting. Out of the top 10 locations, 5 are led by hiring in manufacturing. In AZ, TN, GA, CT and Huntsville, AL. While education is hiring the most in FL, professional services hiring leads in IA and Birmingham, AL. I had a similar conversation with a clean energy business owner yesterday. He shared that are he looks to scale his company, he's excited by Gen Z's openness to working in the trades. We shared that when we grew up the trades were looked at as something you did if you couldn't cut it in college. But today's talent sees good training, good pay, and a career they don't have to bring home work every night. So, whether you're in clean energy or another industry that desperately needs Gen Z talent, consider what your industry and company have to offer that today's talent wants. It might not be where or what you think. Link in bio for more reading on this topic. #genz #hiring #jobmarket #career

Golddy, you're absolutely right. A fancy degree doesn't automatically make someone a great employee. Let's break this down: 1. Education vs. attitude: While a good education can be valuable, it's not everything. The right attitude - being willing to learn, work hard, and collaborate - is often more important for success on the job. 2. Teamwork matters: As you pointed out, being able to work well with others, regardless of their background, is crucial. This skill isn't necessarily taught in school but is vital in most workplaces. 3. Don't judge by credentials alone: It's a mistake to overlook candidates from less well-known schools or those with non-traditional career paths. These individuals might bring unique perspectives and skills to the table. 4. Resumes vs. reality: A impressive resume might help someone get hired, but it's their actual performance, attitude, and ability to grow that will determine their long-term success. 5. Practical skills count: Often, the skills that make someone excel at their job are learned through experience rather than in a classroom. 6. Diversity of thought: Hiring people with varied educational and career backgrounds can lead to more innovation and problem-solving in a team. This perspective aligns with a growing recognition in many industries that a broader set of criteria - beyond just academic credentials - should be considered when hiring and promoting employees. It's about finding a balance between educational qualifications and other important factors like practical skills, attitude, and cultural fit.

Respect for people ⚓️ Drivingforces becomes clear and reveald if you think like Ford and you understand who you would pick for crew preparing an atlantic sailing passage. The more depressing part is that alot of the world is led by group-thinking that you as an individual has little to counter-strike. It is a lot about how you recruit, you get the results and Psychological Safety you recruit for.

So many paths to explore with this opportunity!

Are we hiring for the past or the future? It’s easy to get caught up in a candidate’s history, but I believe we often overlook a crucial factor: their potential. Hiring based on past achievements is like driving while only looking in the rearview mirror. Let's start focusing on the road ahead. What candidates can learn, how they can grow, and the new directions they can take us. It's not just about where they've been, but where they can go with the right opportunities.

What a job candidate has done before isn't relevant. That's right... read that again. What a job candidate has done before isn't relevant. What matters is what they will do for you with what they've learned. I would love to see a resume that focused not on quantifiable achievements but rather on what the person learned from that role. That provides far more insight about how they'll behave in the future. #HireBetter

A holistic approach to hiring may not be the traditional approach but it may be a new way of creating diverse and dynamic organizations that can deliver value.

WOULD YOU LIKE ME TO TELL YOU WHAT YOU PROBABLY DON'T WANT TO HEAR? I say this a lot. To hiring managers and to candidates. The topics usually include: ✔Setting realistic expectations on both sides. ✔Challenges companies might face that they aren't addressing at the start of a search. ✔Missing experience that a candidate doesn't have that they may not realize is holding them back. ✔Taking the time to LISTEN and ADVISE. If you enjoy straight talk we might just be a good match. Hiring can be fun and searching for a new gig can be fun! If you are looking to hire and want another perspective or a candidate that wants intel on the market feel free to reach out! #hiring #accountingjobs

Hiring isn’t always about the resume. I once hired a Stanford grad with an impressive background, expecting big things. But despite the credentials, they struggled to deliver results. On the other hand, I hired someone with a modest resume—timid, open-minded, and not flashy. This person consistently exceeded expectations, broke new benchmarks, and delivered growth. It’s a reminder: passion, adaptability, and drive often outweigh pedigree. Don’t overlook the quiet achievers—they may be the ones who surprise you. #Hiring #Leadership #Talent
