  • Burnout, Bias, and Broken Trust: Employ's 2025 Jobseeker Nation Report

    Burnout, Bias, and Broken Trust: Employ's 2025 Jobseeker Nation Report
    Jul 16 2025
    Job seekers aren’t playing games in 2025. Between AI, inflation, and ghosted applications, candidates are demanding better. We sat down with Stephanie Manzelli to unpack the latest Job Seeker Nation Report and why it’s more than just stats—it’s a warning sign. From broken trust to burnout, this conversation dives deep into how recruitment is being redefined. In this episode we talk about how AI is changing the hiring experience, why transparency isn’t optional anymore, and what employers can do to rebuild trust before talent walks out the door. Key Takeaways ➡ 57% of job seekers expect to hear back within 3 days of applying—slow comms kill trust. ➡ Only 28% of candidates think salaries are keeping up with inflation. ➡ 77% are fine being recorded during interviews—privacy concerns are shifting. ➡ 85% are open to leaving even if they’re “happy.” Retention isn’t just about satisfaction. ➡ Loyalty is no longer a given—workers are prioritizing self-preservation. ➡ Compensation transparency is table stakes, not a perk. ➡ Burnout is fueling job searches even more than bad bosses. ➡ AI is becoming an accepted tool—especially when it improves fairness. ➡ Candidates would rather hear bad news than be ghosted. ➡ Employer branding means nothing without follow-through and clarity. ➡ Re-engaging past candidates isn’t just smart—it’s expected now. ➡ Technology is fine, but without a human element, it still falls flat.

  • Is HR Dead Weight or Your Secret Weapon? Lila Nazef from Neocase on Leadership, and Why Onboarding Is Broken

    Is HR Dead Weight or Your Secret Weapon? Lila Nazef from Neocase on Leadership, and Why Onboarding Is Broken
    Jul 15 2025
    Long COVID might not be top of mind for execs, but its lingering effects tell us everything we need to know about experience in your organization. In this episode we speak with Lila Nazef, VP of Sales and Marketing at Neocase on why HR still isn’t working, how onboarding sets the tone for everything, and what leaders miss when they treat people ops like admin. There’s a real shift happening—from tactical HR to experience-first org design—and companies that miss it will lose the talent war. We dig in on HR experience design, the blurred lines between sales and marketing, leadership mindset shifts, and why technology isn’t the enemy—it’s the excuse. If you’re tired of reactive HR, this episode brings the fire (and a few hard truths). Key Takeaways ➡ ➡ HR still operates like a silo, disconnected from brand and revenue. ➡ Sales = the hunt. Marketing = the ecosystem. Most confuse the two. ➡ Poor onboarding breaks trust before it even starts. ➡ Tech should enhance—not replace—human connection. ➡ The Chief Experience Officer isn’t optional anymore. ➡ Most orgs don’t know how their people feel—that’s the real gap. ➡ Experience isn’t fluffy—it’s a measurable competitive advantage. ➡ Communication is still HR’s biggest blind spot. ➡ Mistakes fuel innovation if leaders stop punishing them. ➡ HR needs a rebrand—from policy enforcer to strategic driver. ➡ You can’t fix broken culture with a tech stack. Chapters 00:00 The Lingering Effects of COVID-19 02:56 Exploring the Value of Organs and Skin 05:57 The Importance of Employee Experience 08:57 Sales vs. Marketing: A Passion for the Hunt 11:57 The Broken HR Experience 14:55 Defining HR Experience and Its Impact 19:49 Seamless Employee Experience 22:02 The Role of Chief Experience Officer 25:48 Transforming HR from Cost Center to Revenue Driver 28:25 Balancing Technology and Human Touch 36:04 Creating Competitive Advantage through Employee Experience 43:41 Embracing Mistakes as a Path to Innovation Connect with our guest: Lila Nazef VP of Sales and Marketing at Neocase: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lila-nazef-hrtech/ Connect with us William Tincup LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tincup/ Ryan Leary LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ryanleary/ Connect with WRKdefined on your favorite social network Site: http://www.wrkdefined.com TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@wrkdefined LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/wrkdefined Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/WRKdefined/ Twitter (X): https://twitter.com/WRKdefined Substack: https://wrkdefined.substack.com/ Learn more about your ad choices.

    Skills vs. Potential: What Really Matters When Hiring with Randi Seran, VP of People, workrise
    Jul 7 2025
    How do you spot and support high-potential talent before they burn out or walk out? Randi Seran, VP of People at workrise talks about the often-missed signals of employee appreciation, why recognition isn't one-size-fits-all, and how resilience is quietly replacing potential as the new hiring metric. We unpack her hiring playbook and explain why top performers aren’t always your future leaders. Key Takeaways ➡ High potential employees often feel invisible—despite outsized contributions ➡ Not all top performers are high potentials, and that distinction matters ➡ Recognition must be personalized—some want the spotlight, others want quiet acknowledgment ➡ Many high potentials don’t self-identify, making them easy to miss without career promoters ➡ Hiring for potential means looking for passion, curiosity, and discipline—not just a résumé ➡ Resilience is becoming the most valuable trait in today’s talent landscape ➡ Communication is the foundation of trust, especially during change ➡ Feeling undervalued can derail even your most committed employees ➡ Behavioral interview questions reveal more than credentials ever will ➡ A clear, consistent hiring process helps uncover what resumes can't Chapters 00:00 — Who is Randi Seran, VP of People at workrise 03:13 — Understanding High Potential Employees 05:54 — The Impact of Recognition and Appreciation 08:57 — Differentiating High Performers and High Potentials 12:09 — Hiring for Potential vs. Skills 15:00 — The Importance of Resilience in the Workplace 17:58 — Building Trust Through Communication 20:57 — Personal Experiences of Feeling Undervalued 23:56 — Randi's Ideal Hiring Process Connect with our guest: Randi Seran, VP of People at workrise: https://www.linkedin.com/in/randi-seran-sphr-4239682 Connect with us William Tincup LinkedIn: ⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/tincup/⁠ Ryan Leary LinkedIn: ⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/ryanleary/⁠ Connect with WRKdefined on your favorite social network Site: ⁠http://www.wrkdefined.com⁠ TikTok: ⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@wrkdefined⁠ LinkedIn: ⁠https://www.linkedin.com/company/wrkdefined⁠ Facebook: ⁠https://www.facebook.com/WRKdefined/⁠ Twitter (X): ⁠https://twitter.com/WRKdefined⁠ Substack: ⁠https://wrkdefined.substack.com/⁠ Learn more about your ad choices.
