Support your homies.

👆 This is belief and practice that put at the top of my list for how to do things right. And its not just about business, but how to foster real, deep, meaningful relationships.

Danielle Farage is many things to me: a work friend, a colleague, a collaborator and a co-host on the Purple Acorn HR Morning Show.

Over the past couple of years we have formed a bond, a "frentorship" as she calls it. And it works both ways! I learn SO much from her as far as creativity, content creation, Gen-Z $hit so I can communicate with my daughter.

But most importantly, the ability for me to be open minded about things I do not know about. (see: "Gen-Z $hit above). 😆

I lovingly call her "Kid-Sis" as she is my go-to conference running buddy. So when she announced that she was kicking off her latest (and amazing) project, The Underrated Economy, I had to go support her.

And, I HIGHLY urge you to check it out and learn more.

👉 The job market is facing a massive disconnect: essential industries like industrials, construction, and the trades sectors that keep our economy runninghave millions of unfilled roles and are generating unprecedented wealth, yet struggle to attract young talent. 

Meanwhile, millions of college grads are drowning in debt, unemployed or underemployed, and uncertain about their future as AI rapidly erodes entry-level white-collar paths they were told to chase. 

With Gen Alpha dreaming of becoming YouTubers, the gap between real opportunity and perceived prestige has never been wider, leaving us to question what happens next.

The future is now. Stay connected to it our become extinct!

Thank you Danielle for being my gateway to the present & future and being an incredible friend.

Your Recruiter for Top Marketing, Product & Tech Talent | 2x TA Agency Founder | Host: Top 1% Global Careers Podcast @ #thePOZcast | Global Speaker & Moderator | Cancer Survivor

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but you might have to consider a pivot right now.

In this brutal market with so many good folks out of work, making such a hard decision is becoming more of a reality.

And it sucks. 

Let's not sugar coat it. It's a brutal decision to have to consider, accept and then take action on.

But where to start?

👉 I consider myself somewhat of an expert on this, as I had to pivot 11 years ago, and it was hard AF. 

The first step is accepting the fact that pivoting isn't a sign of failure. 
→ Most of the time, the causes are outside of your control. 

The second step is doing a true self-awareness assessment of your strengths, weaknesses, skills, and passions, and finding where the overlap is and focusing on those traits and mapping them to industries and roles.

The third step is taking action. It takes work, like REAL work. Researching deeply into the industries then companies that are hiring for the types of new roles that you are looking for. 

→ Then digging into your network, reaching out for informational interviews, reestablishing contacts and having those conversations that should lead to door opening opportunities. 

And you have to apply, a lot. And accept that there will be a lot of rejection.

BUT KEEP GOING.

* The hardest step is accepting that you might have to take a couple of steps backwards financially and title in an effort to realign to make leaps forward!

Have faith, work your a$$ off and good things will happen! Be open to change and know that it will either be temporary or potentially put you on the trajectory of a new path that will be fulfilling and rewarding! 

Have faith.

👉 FACT: AI won’t replace recruiters… but recruiters who use AI will replace the ones who don’t.

That was just one 🔥 take from Day 1 at RecFest USA Nashville, and this episode is PACKED!

I sat down (live, outdoors, vibes high) with four leaders who are actually in the arena: ↴

Tejal Rives: from recruiting to product, curiosity as a superpower, and why “Open to Work” helps more than it hurts.

Aubrey Cirillo: aligning hiring to business outcomes, scaling without losing the human touch, and protecting your time.

Heather Colvin ⚾: bridging the trust gap with hiring managers, the 72-hour pipeline rule, and using AI (trust → verify).

Mike Peditto (author of Yes, You’re Being Judged): reinvention, handling trolls, and creating without chasing the algorithm.

👉 You’ll learn: ↴

 • Where AI actually fits in TA (and where it doesn’t)
 • Why “quality of submission” may beat “quality of hire” as a working metric
 • Tactical ways to keep feedback human at scale (no ghosting)
 • How to build real partnership with hiring managers before the req opens
 • Mindset moves for candidates and recruiters when rejection piles up
