REKRUTACJA W TRUDNYCH CZASACH
Posted in the Informacje Prasowe (Press releases), Poland category on November 24, 2008
Kryzys na światowych rynkach i prognozy o spowolnieniu gospodarczym wprowadziły niepewność na polskim rynku pracy. Ograniczenie budżetów i zamknięcie projektów rekrutacyjnych na wybrane stanowiska to tylko niektóre ze skutków. Jednak dla wielu polskich czy średnich firm ten okres może być szansą na pozyskanie najlepszych pracowników.
Zapotrzebowanie na specjalistów i menedżerów nadal jest wysokie i nic nie wskazuje, że w najbliższych miesiącach znacząco się to zmieni. Prognozy o masowych zwolnieniach najczęściej dotyczą pracowników niewykwalifikowanych. Nieliczne branże oczywiście odczują pewne spowolnienie, ale jak dotąd zaledwie kilku naszych klientów zamknęło lub wstrzymało projekty rekrutacyjne do początku przyszłego roku. Dla firm, które pragną być postrzegane jako najlepsi pracodawcy i chcą by kandydaci niezmiennie byli zainteresowani pracą u nich, takie posunięcie jest dość ryzykowne. Ograniczając procesy rekrutacyjne, pozwalamy konkurencji przyciągnąć najlepszych, dlatego w przyszłości będziemy musieli starać się podwójnie by zrekrutować prawdziwe talenty. Jak zatem, przy aktualnej sytuacji na świecie i obawach o sytuację w Polsce, wykorzystać ten okres w wojnie o najbardziej utalentowanych specjalistów i menedżerów? Dlaczego i w jaki sposób rekrutować? Poniżej lista użytecznych porad dla pracodawców.
Wynagrodzenia i benefity- to praca dla specjalisty
Posted in the Biuletyny (Bulletins) category on November 24, 2008
Polski rynek pracy dojrzewa a wraz z nim działy HR. Proces wdrażania coraz to nowych narzędzi, zaczął się już na dobre w efektywnym zarządzaniu zasobami ludzkimi. Przedsiębiorstwa stopniowo wprowadzają procedury oceny pracowników, badania satysfakcji z pracy, a także systemy motywacyjne, oparte na premiowaniu lub dodatkowych benefitach pracowniczych. Wprowadzenie takich zmian, poprzedza przygotowanie dokładnych opisów stanowisk (zakres obowiązków, rola w organizacji, zwierzchnictwo itp.) oraz systemu wynagradzania. Do osiągnięcia optymalnych efektów, czyli ustalenia poziomu płac konkurencyjnych na rynku pracy w danej branży, należy bardzo dokładnie je przeanalizować. Porównanie stawek rynkowych, z tymi proponowanymi w firmie daje podstawę do wykreowania zmian korzystnych zarówno dla pracowników jak i pracodawców.
Analityk sprzedaży i marketingu – nowe zjawisko na rynku pracy
Posted in the Biuletyny (Bulletins) category on November 24, 2008
Kryzys na świecie nie wpłynął negatywnie na liczbę oferowanych stanowisk dla specjalistów i menedżerów w dziedzinie sprzedaży i marketingu. Co ciekawe wzrosło zainteresowanie specjalistami, którzy zanalizują nowe trendy na rynku i pomogą firmie wyznaczyć cele i strategie.
Kryzys obserwowany obecnie na światowych rynkach finansowych i niepewność polskiego rynku pracy nie odbił się negatywnie na ilości projektów rekrutacyjnych realizowanych przez Antal International na stanowiska specjalistyczne i menedżerskie w dziedzinie sprzedaży i marketingu. W trudnych czasach wybitni fachowcy z dużym doświadczeniem i udokumentowanymi sukcesami w skutecznym zarządzaniu marką lub sprzedażą są tym bardziej poszukiwani, a ich wiedza i doświadczenie często przyczyniają się do „być albo nie być” firmy.
Wyjątkowo ważny projekt – poszukiwanie inżyniera projektu
Posted in the Biuletyny (Bulletins) category on November 24, 2008
Firmy poszukują specjalistów znających się na projektach inwestycyjnych. Inżynier transferujący maszyny i technologie to skarb. Część specjalistów wyjechała, ci, którzy pozostali – bardzo się cenią.
Od roku 2004, wraz z wejściem Polski do Unii, mamy do czynienia z passą sektora spożywczego. Otwarcie rynku oraz dobra koniunktura dla przedsiębiorców zachęciła zagranicznych inwestorów do modernizowania starych lub budowania nowych zakładów. Nie zabrakło też nowych inwestorów. Projekty inwestycyjne były bardzo różne: budowy nowych zakładów, rozbudowy już istniejących, budowa nowych linii technologicznych, transfery zagraniczne linii technologicznych, modernizacja maszyn i linii. Przykłady można mnożyć: od rozbudowy zakładu produkcyjnego koncernu Unilever w Poznaniu, budowy nowego zakładu produkcyjnego Cadbury Polska w Skarbimierzu k. Brzegu (produkcja gum do żucia), po rozbudowę zakładu produkcyjnego Cadbury Wedel w Bielanach Wrocławskich czy budowę zakładu produkcyjnego koncernu Lorenz Bahlsen w Stanowicach k. Oławy.

Managing Director China of ANTAL International
Mr. Robert Parkinson
If you are a senior manager in a big company with monthly salary of RMB100, 000, then you might receive a call from a gentleman, “Hello Madam/Sir, we are looking for a senior manager for a fortune 500 company, I am sure you are the rising star candidate with the necessary experiences…”

A 360 DEGREE VIEW OF HR
Posted in the Global category on November 17, 2008
Ask the employees at your company what HR does and how well they do it, and be prepared for verbal assault. Talk to a line manager. Interview a CEO. Inquire about HR’s organisational role and its reputation. Be ready to hear things about your work that range from politely acceptable to the downright brutal.

Posted in the Global category on November 12, 2008

The event saw company leaders from large organisations across the country join together and sleep out under the stars for one night in order to get taste of homelessness.

SMEs urged to hire now
Posted in the China category on November 11, 2008
| Staff layoffs at a number of multinational companies (MNCs) in the country as a result of the worldwide financial crisis should present an opportunity for small and medium-sized domestic enterprises (SMEs) to grab whatever talent they can, according to the head of a global recruitment agency.The SMEs should do so before the MNCs realize the resilience of the Chinese economy and start rehiring sometime next year, said Tony Goodwin, CEO of Antal International.Hiring people now can bring greater long-term benefits than firing, Goodwin told China Daily in an exclusive interview. |  |
| Visitors to a recruitment fair in Nanjing, Jiangsu province, read brochures in front of a billboard seeking to hire an CEO with an offer of an annual salary of 2 million yuan. An Xin | |
In these uncertain times when developed economies, especially the US, are sliding into a recession, corporate executives should think “long-term” in formulating corporate human resources strategies, Goodwin said.
Nuove tendenze nel mercato FMCG
Posted in the Italy category on November 10, 2008
In alcuni dei suoi segmenti, il Fast Moving Consumer Goods in Italia sta vivendo un momento di rigenerazione, alimentato da spinte inconsuete. Nel Food prendono piede nuove tendenze, come la dermonutrizione e la diffusione degli alimenti funzionali, che oggi rappresentano a valore 20 miliardi di euro ed entro il 2010 potranno moltiplicarsi cinque volte tanto. Ricerche di mercato dimostrano la consapevolezza che esiste tra le persone rispetto al rapporto tra alimentazione e salute e come dallo yogurt si sia passati ai minidrink a base di lattosio.

Posted in the Italy category on November 10, 2008
Nel bel mezzo del credit crunch il tema del recruiting diventa decisamente “caldo” . L’obiettivo è quello di individuare le risorse che abbiano il profilo professionale richiesto dalle funzioni che oggi si trovano in prima linea nel fronteggiamento e superamento della crisi.
Le normative di settore impongono già da tempo una maggiore attenzione alle posizioni di rischio, avviando le principali realtà bancarie a processi strutturati di recruiting volti all’individuazione di professionalità specialistiche in ambito Basilea2, analisi e monitoraggio dei rischi di credito, dei rischi finanziari e di mercato.
Oggi si assiste ad un’accelerazione di tale processo con l’obiettivo di riorganizzare le funzioni dedicate entro la fine dell’anno.

Nonostante lo scenario internazionale che si sta delineando, il mercato italiano rimane abbastanza movimentato per i profili professionali “specialisti”. In particolare, parliamo di candidature con profili tecnici di 2 – 5 anni di esperienza oppure di candidature più senior ma sempre specializzati su tematiche che possono spaziare da sistemi ed infrastrutture ad architetture applicative, sviluppo e analisi di software.

Caratteristica peculiare dell’headhunter specializzato è poter fornire ai propri clienti informazioni sull’andamento di mercato.

Are you “Closed” for talent?
Posted in the United Kingdom category on November 7, 2008
How you can benefit from hiring in today’s market
Less competition: If you have lost talent to your equivalent of Tier 1, Magic Circle, your industry’s “Big Four” competitors or if your employer brand couldn’t compete with theirs, now is your chance. If you go hunting now you will face less head-to-head competition for talented individuals. Some companies reduce recruitment activity and hiring budgets, thereby dramatically reducing their recruiting effectiveness and by doing so giving you a competitive advantage.
Xmas Shopping … a non starter?

Who has the winning hand?

The on-line gaming industry has been extremely interesting to watch over the last couple of months!

A different breed of Sales Executive now required. Apply Within?
Posted in the United Kingdom category on November 7, 2008
My recent conversations with my clients have shown that one of the key features that employers are looking for in potential employees on the sales front is the ability and/or experience of having either sold across a diverse range of verticals or else into a particularly niche market place.
Guests are staying home … How can you make a profit in hotels?
Posted in the United Kingdom category on November 7, 2008
It’s no secret that the hotel industry has well and truly been hit by the credit crunch. The week ending the 2nd November saw the revenue per available room drop by 18% in London (caterersearch.com), and the outlook is apparently looking gloomy for 2009.
Or is it?
IT Spend & Auto ID
Posted in the United Kingdom category on November 7, 2008
Is the Credit Crunch really affecting IT Spend?
People think we are in a down turn, well in a recent Data-Monitor survey of 5000 IT decision makers, over 50% of respondents stated they expect to keep their IT budget the same in 2009 as it was in 2008. 37% of the respondents expect to see their IT budget increase in 2009 and 13% are anticipating IT budget cuts. This appears to be a mixed message for technology vendors and service providers. It indicates that, on the whole, enterprises are not planning to decrease their IT expenditure despite the current economic climate.

This was the promise made to the US by the next American President in his victory speach last night, and it was clear it came straight from the heart.

The momentum built throughout his campaign, combined with his passion, drive, commitment to his beliefs and the understanding of the needs of his nation make it inevitable greatness is on the horizon.

Aziende Italiane rivolte ad una dimensione multinazionale subiscono una trasformazione organizzativa che vede in primo piano una maggior strutturazione della funzione Risorse Umane.
Nei mesi scorsi abbiamo assistito all’avvio di un processo di cambiamento notevole del ruolo del professionista delle risorse umane che diventa un vero “Business Partner”; non più funzione a sè stante in azienda, quasi astratta dalle altre, ma al fianco dei manager di linea per supportarli e capire meglio le loro esigenze.
