What advice would you give someone who's considering changing professions entirely? At 52 years old? After 20+ yrs in their current industry? #careeradvice #AskingForAFriend #HRCommunity

I am hiring right now. I have no job description of must haves written out. I don’t like the traditional way of hiring cause you lose great people just cause they don’t tick a particular box. We need to hire people. Tech can be learnt. Experience of course helps. But people first
