A tale of two recruiters- Richard Center
I had a bit of a “sliding doors” moment last week. Michael Lai, one of Mantech’s up-and-coming recruiters, placed a software engineer into a great tech company last week. The candidate in question turned out to be someone I placed in what was one of my first placements at Mantech almost 18 years ago. It[…]
Follow Your Gut Feeling
You’ve worked hard all week, you’ve followed the process, but what does your gut feel say? What have I learned in the past year of Recruitment and dealing with candidates in specifics? It’s that building long enduring relationships of trust and transparency goes a long way as opposed to the invaluable transactional agreement of what[…]
International Women’s Day 2018
This year’s International Women’s Day theme is #PressforProgress. This is a call to motivate and unite friends, colleagues and communities to think, act and be gender inclusive. According to ISACA’s global survey of Women in Technology ( conducted in 2017) women are still facing significant barriers in the workplace. Mantech’s Managing Director Cameron Gillis has been[…]
“You are clearly an excellent engineer but…”
There is clearly somewhat of an arms race in Sydney for tech companies to secure top engineering talent. Asking salaries are on the rise, counter-offers at resignation time commonplace and there is a marked increase in average time-to-hire. Great news for high performing engineers! And yet, in the face of all the growing demand for[…]
How we’re using Psychogeometric testing for hiring
Workplace diversity is a buzz phrase in the hiring world, and is a key consideration in today’s fast paced environment. It can be the difference between balance and unrest in a team.

I’ve got a beef! Where are all the recruiters going???
Why have all the recruiters (or should I say Talent Acquisition Specialists) working in the big software companies been trained and grounded in search and recruiting firms? Have you ever seen a recruiter at Google, Amazon et al. trained at said company from rookie status through to competency? No, I thought not! These companies don’t train – someone else does that for them. Have a look through LinkedIn at the thousands of recruiters who work at the software behemoths.
