Europe’s favorite, or at least the Netherlands favorite TA leader graces us with his royal presence. Bas is heading to the land down under for 3 TA events as a guest speaker and travel buddy with the Hung Lee of Recruiting Brainfood! Jealous much?

• Bas is convinced people will forget the ongoing blunders and missteps with Better.com goofing up their latest round of terminations. 

• What’s up with Register before you apply? HR is stuck in a rut from 10 years ago when someone thought it would save them a few minutes in sending out the offer.
