Redefining Work Newsletter: Supporting Those Impact by Layoffs in HR & People Operations
In this inaugural Redefining Work newsletter we introduce the new Redefining Work Substack platform and initiatives to help those in the HR/people/recruiting space who've been impacted by layoffs.
Welcome to the first episode of the new Redefining Work newsletter! 🎉
Yesterday I announced that the Redefining HR podcast will become the Redefining Work podcast when Season 9 launches in January 2023, including why I’m migrating the new Redefining Work platform to Substack (read more here).
I’m thrilled about this next chapter of the podcast and media platform and look forward to exploring more stories on advancing the world of work in the new year.
I also want to take a moment to thank all the listeners, subscribers, podcast guests, and community who have supported my work over the years.
I feel incredibly grateful and fortunate to have such an amazing community that continues to push for a better world of work.
Thank you! 🙏🏼
On to this week’s newsletter…
Yesterday I shared a new platform aimed at helping HR, people operations, and recruiting job seekers connect with companies who are hiring - the Amplify Talent Collective.
The Amplify Talent Collective is a platform that connects available talent with opportunities across the HR and people operations space, and is hosted on Pallet.
For Jobseekers:
With the Talent Collective, you’re in control. Accept or reject opportunities based on how they align with your interests. Here’s how it works:
Create your profile using the link below. You can make your profile public or anonymous/private. Your profile is hidden from your current employer by default. You can also hide your profile from specific companies.
If an employer views your profile and thinks you’d be suitable for a role, they will request permission to connect with you. You can approve or reject that request based on how it aligns with your interests.
If you accept their request to connect, Pallet will share your email with the company so they can contact you directly.
If you don’t want to create a profile, no worries. You can always browse job postings and apply to those that interest you on the Amplify Job Board. The job board includes roles posted directly by employers, as well as jobs we’ve curated for the community.
Eligibility: The Amplify Talent Collective is currently focused on HR and people practitioners with five or more years of experience.
The Amplify Talent Collective is focused on HR & people operations, but there are others for specialists. Recruiters: be sure to check out Hung Lee’s Brainfood Talent Collective and Growth by Design Talent’s Collective (for TA leaders). L&D professionals check out Offbeat’s L&D Talent Collective.
For Employers:
Hiring for HR & People roles? You can post your jobs and access the Talent Collective database at no cost through the end of 2022.
