I had a chat with someone about their recent job application experience.
They were asked to create a TikTok video as the first stage of their application process.
The task? To express their enthusiasm for applying to the company.
Certainly an interesting approach.

Employees are reshaping the narrative around layoffs and work-life balance.

Lews Maleh and Jamie Craw discuss a growing trend among workers to record and share their layoff experiences on social media platforms like TikTok, seeking feedback, solidarity, and sometimes, a form of digital revenge.

This trend is demystifying layoffs and challenging the stigma associated with job loss, as workers openly discuss their experiences and feelings in a public forum.But it's not just about layoffs.

Employees are increasingly unwilling to compromise their health and work-life balance for early meetings or overtime hours.The culture of overwork is being scrutinised, and workers are advocating for more flexible, human-friendly schedules that respect personal time and wellbeing.

These trends reflect a shift in workplace dynamics, with employees leveraging digital platforms to voice their experiences and expectations.

As we navigate these changes, it's essential for employers to listen, adapt, and foster an environment that respects both the professional and personal lives of their workforce.

Rising up from a poor neighborhood. How can you build resilience and the mentality to "Play the cards you're dealt" and not let your circumstances be a barrier to your potential future?

It seems more leaders want people back in the office...But why?
