What Start-up’s “Want” in their new hires

December 18, 2020 by Eric Fielder Leave a Comment

Over the past 12 months, Blue Ocean Hire has supported numerous Healthcare Start-Up’s by hiring key members of their workforce from leadership teams through sales, client services, product and clinical.  We find that in this ever changing and evolving landscape, these are the attributes (and “off” the resume skills) that companies are searching for in their employees.

Growth Oriented

Executives look for a key attribute in 2021, which is this mindset.  Leaders are more enthusiastic to hire someone who wants to learn and find a professional who may be more flexible in their learning capabilities. Things are constantly changing, evolving and pivoting therefore the way we work needs to reflect those changes

Survival Skills

Organizations (especially start-up types) are looking for this rare breed of professional.  They are searching for the ability to adapt, attack or thrive in any type of market where this mentality is preferred.  The ‘roll up your sleeves’ approach is required, not preferred where those candidates who have ‘earned their stripes’ can help with the company’s growth.

Critical Thinking

The ability to think critically will be crucial as the world evolves and transitions nearer a ‘post COVID World’.  Businesses will continue to face challenges that will require teams to be innovative in their problem-solving and communicating frequently.

Loyalty (or) Dedication

Dedication is the key to joining an organization and team, provided you are onboard and buy into the product, company or culture.  Based on the ever changing tides in the market and Ebb / Flow, Executives and Leaders are truly looking to onboard Professionals who are looking for a home or opportunity to build (or) build upon the infrastructure of greatness.  Where some business are in search of a person, there are many who are in search of their hire they see as promotable.

Coach-ability

As industries change and client groups additionally begin to adapt to the new normal, organizations look to hire employees who are empathetic and can ‘put themselves in others shoes’.  These types of professionals are able to mentor, manage and effect the changes in their teams, staff or external stakeholders on a daily basis.

Success in Virtuality

Employers that have the aptitude to identify and hire talent with the unique ability to thrive in the new normal and virtual workspace will be one of the most daunting (yet critical) hiring strategies in the new year.  Sales & BD Executives will need to communicate, articulate and demonstrate how to stay visible to their target client groups or business lines in a highly virtual world (which we pray begins to return back to normal in the next several months).  The ability to learn new skills, leverage technology tools and build new relationships will be the new currently.

If your organization is looking for experience and these ‘critical skills’ in your new hiring initiatives, please reach out to us for an appointment : (web) www.blueoceanhire.com or 561-300-0095

With Gratitude, Blue Ocean Hire

Hiring for 2021 Starts Today

December 3, 2020 by Eric Fielder Leave a Comment

As 2020 comes to a close, hiring slows and your FTE forecast for next year grows (no rhyme was intended here). We enter the “Holiday Season” with the intent of ending the year whereas most organizations concentrate on the following:

Year-End Close
Budgeting – P&L
Marketing & Growth Strategies
Hiring Initiatives and Corporate Planning

Traditionally, this is a time to celebrate the successes or milestones achieved throughout the year – this year in particular. These are times for companies to show appreciation to their teams and individuals that helped contribute to a department, business line or company’s overall success.

Additionally, these months are highly opportunistic for executives to take advantage of the success achieved and use that leverage to start hiring for 2021 NOW! As the year winds down and the next comes into focus, both employers & employees have started making those important decisions – “should I stay or should I go”?

PSST, Attention Employers & Executives – December is the best time to start interviewing for your most difficult or important hiring initiatives of 2021. Today’s market landscape is ultra-competitive and as corporations begin to ‘jockey’ for a position, start your dialogue and meetings with desired candidates right now. Why now do you ask? The talent you will be looking for in Q1 of 2021 will shortly be receiving bonuses earned for 2020, using a large portion of their PTO or Vacation days, receiving any 401K match, and most importantly – they already know where they want to be next year.

According to LinkedIn– “January is termed moving month and most research shows the average time to hire ranges from 35 – 55 days. That means the more prepared you are going into January the better chance you have at taking advantage of that extremely active talent pool that you need as part of your team, next year.” January is called moving month since more people are changing their careers at that time of year

It is becoming increasingly difficult to hire Key Talent next year and the best time to start, is right now – when you have the time and ‘both of you are looking’.

Leverage our firm’s 15 years of direct industry experience within; Healthcare-Technology, TeleHealth Solutions, PBM, Managed Care & More to bridge the gap between hiring and onboarding during the next 45 days.

With Gratitude, We thank our Veterans

December 16, 2019 by Eric Fielder Leave a Comment

Every year on Veterans Day, Americans honor nearly 20 million active and former US service members who have severed their country. Veterans Day is traditionally marked by parades, speeches and ceremonies offering a nation’s appreciation & gratitude for our men and women in uniform. We here at F-5 Group are a US Veteran owned search firm and put a focus on hiring Veterans for our client groups on a National Scale.

Here are other ways to go beyond saying “thanks for your service” and truly make a difference in a veteran’s life – throughout the year.

Volunteer
This online tool identifies volunteer opportunities at local VA offices. You can also join the Volunteer Transportation Network to help veterans get to appointments at VA medical facilities. You can also find ways to help veterans and their families on VolunteerMatch.

Send a care package or a letter
Operation Gratitude has sent more than 2 million individually addressed care package to the military community. The packages go to current military members as well as veterans, wounded warriors and their caregivers. As more American troops return to civilian life, the Operation Gratitude veterans program has been growing. It also has a letter-writing campaign encouraging everyone to write handwritten letters of gratitude to veterans.

Sponsor a service dog
Service dogs can help veterans living with PTSD and other disabilities regain control, independence and mobility. Freedom Service Dogs of America match highly specialized service dogs with service members needing assistance in their transition back to civilian life.

Puppies Behind Bars is a program in which prisoners train companion dogs for veterans with PTSD. Donors can sponsor a dog and receive updates on the dog’s training and life with its veteran.

Donate travel points
The Fisher House operates the Hero Miles Program, using donated frequent flier miles to bring family members to the bedside of injured service members. Hotel points can also be donated to provide hotel rooms for families of the veterans when a Fisher House is not available. The Fisher House Foundation has a network of homes on the grounds of military and VA hospitals around the country. These homes help family members be close during the hospitalization of a loved one for a combat injury, illness or disease.

Help veterans on the streets
A phone call can also make difference in the life of a veteran who is homeless or at risk of becoming homeless. Call 877-4AID-VET, or 877-424-3838, to connect with help at the VA. This service is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

The Department of Veterans Affairs’ Stand Down program is designed to help homeless veterans “combat” life on the streets. Stand Downs are usually one- to three-day events that provide food, shelter, clothing and health screenings to homeless and unemployed veterans. To find a Stand Down program in your community, contact your local VA hospital.

Build a home for severely injured vets
Severely injured veterans often come home needing a place to live that better accommodates their physical disabilities. Building Homes for Heroes builds specially modified homes for veterans that help them live independently. These homes are provided at no cost to the veterans. The organization also provides financial planning services.

Honor the greatest generation
The Honor Flight Network helps veterans of the “greatest generation” make a free pilgrimage to the World War II Memorial on the National Mall in Washington. You can volunteer to escort these men and women on the flight to see this memorial. Honor Flight also helps terminally ill veterans who served in any conflict visit memorials to those wars in Washington as well.

Share their stories
So many veterans’ stories have been left untold, but the Library of Congress is collecting the tales from veterans of every war through the Veterans History Project. If you are related to a veteran or know one who has a story to tell, the Library of Congress wants to hear it. Help veterans share their stories before it’s too late.

Let them know they matter
By telling a veteran how much you appreciate their service, you are letting them know their decision to serve our country makes a difference. It’s a simple gesture, but it can make an impact. And so many veterans have never heard the words “thank you.” If you know a veteran or see someone in a military uniform, say something. It may make his or her day and yours.
