Vermutlich kennen Sie noch mehr Beispiele aus Ihren Business Bereichen, aber bezüglich Active Sourcing und Recruiting wiederholen sich in letzter Zeit etwas die Banalitäten, die als neue Innovation gefeiert werden. Stellen Sie sich einmal folgende Werbungen und Ankündigungen vor: Jetzt absolut NEU: Mehl im Brot Kaufen Sie unser Smar-Car, jetzt mit 4 runden Rädern Wasser ist Nass (mein Favorit!) Naja, die Liste ginge unendlich weiter und stimmt einen gleichzeitig traurig, wenn wir Dinge, die eigentlich logisch und essenstiell sind, als Innovation propagieren müssen. Einerseits mag das ja gut sein, dass man Dinge die eigentlich 'BASIC' sind, als Neuheit propagiert, denn viele Berufe und Arbeitsweisen geraten anscheinend wirklich in Vergessenheit heutzutage(so wie Omas Rezepte), obwohl sie eigentlich selbstverständlich sind, andererseits wird einem" Brot mit Mehl" als was neues verkauft, was total schwachsinnig ist. Merkt das denn eigentlich niemand ? G

GO TO ENGLISH VERSION HERE Am 27. / 28. September 2017 ist es wieder so weit und der  HR Inside Summit  öffnet zum 3. Mal in der Wiener Hofburg seine Tore für alle, die im Human Resources mehr erwarten, als „CV-Keyword-Screening“ und „Antworten auf die Top 10 Fragen, wie Sie jedes Bewerbungsgespräch meistern“ ! Dieser Kongress richtet sich vor allem an HR Entscheider, Geschäftsführer und Unternehmer im DACH Raum, aber auch an alle anderen, die sich für Future of Work, Recruiting, Human Resources, Innovation und Startups interessieren. Zum 2. Mal neu mit dabei ist auch der  HR Award . Was das genau ist, darüber haben wir mit Frau Mag. Stefanie Furch vom Team von  Überall Scene  gesprochen, der innovativen Event-Agentur von Mag. Sindy Amadei und Mag. Victoria Schmied, die dieses großartige Event vor gut 3 Jahren zum ersten Mal ins Leben gerufen haben und seitdem nicht zu stoppen sind… Neben dem Pioneers Festival für Startups, dem Web Summit in Dublin, der DLD in München o

After a season marathon of SUITS (season 1-6) I got the idea, that it would be important to open the mind of the LinkedIn audience a bit into the direction, that Headhunters are useful not only for filling your position and use the synergies of their lobby network. We all-rounder headhunter, this is a headhunter who works on his projects from acquisition of the job, via direct search and gathering of information and client management trough candidate interviews and final placement, resemble more to a Partner of a Law Firm, than you might expect. You don't find this species in large mass-recruiting companies, but in small international boutique executive search environments. In mass-recruiting companies, every employee has his task in a clear limited field of operation, e.g. there is a person who makes just the research(searching all day long), then there are just liquidators, who take care of the candidate interviews and then there are the sales consultants / partners, res

Some silent time went by the last weeks without blog posts, because this is now more a creative and busy time for me, but you are right I owe you a short update what's going on with  Mr. BREADHUNTER  and his thoughts and ideas at the moment I am working on. So after leaving Talentor  and being back in march from my inspiring New York trip, there is now a time of fine tuning concerning new headhunting products and clients business needs. I have checked also my facts & figures from the last 33 month at Talentor, where I had ca 1.268 video-calls out of 8.987 screenings with interesting boutique headhunting companies around the globe and I am glad, that I could bring during this time ca. 12 countries(9 partners) to Talentor and fulfill my sales goals extraordinary, but it was also very sad for me to see on the other hand, that 10 countries left the network during this 33 month period I was there. Maybe you know it, how it feels being in the third line of a hierarchic co

Time is running and now, after 2 weeks my New York trip came to an end, but I will be back, my friends for sure :-). There is now enough material and pics for your inspiration for the next month in my mind and I also made a new personal website:  www.thomaszahlten.com   for personal introduction. After my 33 month at Talentor International, now a new era was ushered and we will see, where it will lead to the next month. So give me call for a cup of coffee. I really enjoyed "the city, that never sleeps", took a lot of pictures in Brooklyn & Manhatten, you will get sliced the next weeks combined with blog posts. I had good, inspirational meetings...and this is what I am since years: An international connector, border-less thinker and global actor. Vienna is nice to live, but the playground is the world, especially the US, Russia, Europe and Asia. So, check out my  blog-posts  and  websites  and thank you for your attention even if there was less content today b

So, the strange year 2016 comes to an end, and I like that. There were a lot of funerals, great artists from show-biz died as well as Umberto Eco, my favorite writer. The Chinese year of the monkey act like a insane monkey, if you think about business and the new terror which came up too in 2016. Here I can recommend the  new book  of  Gilles Kepel . I think it's now time to come down and do something different from what we all did the last month, to clean our brain-hard-disc to be ready for 2017. I can recommend the following books, Amazon and Netflix and I am sure you will like it. From business aspect it was a quite successful year 2016, we got 3 new partners at Talentor and 3 more new partners are in the pipeline for the 1st quarter, I am in contact with since 1-2 years. I am also happy to be ready for a new opportunity in March / April 2017, because I think Talentor is now on a good way to develop and move straight forward, after I brought in total 10 new countries and
