#hiring

Too much brain drain in US? So counter-intuitive to All In Dia approach.

Any one seen the trend ?

I recently came across a job posting for a receptionist position that required a bachelor's degree. Why in the world would that ever be a thing?

Just wondering if anyone has been re-hired after accepting the VRSP last year.

Ramp conducted a new study on AI adoption. The research focused on companies' spending habits. It revealed that high AI investment leads to more hiring. Companies are expanding their workforces, not reducing them. This finding challenges the perception of AI causing job cuts.

I’ve seen some RTM jobs listed on job sites. Who’s to say that they’re not going to hire from the outside!? Think about it, they could save a lot of money that way.
I hope they hire from within the company.

We are hiring and have returned to growth

Hundreds of open positions with a clear hiring and go to market strategy

The markets love us and are rewarding us with a solid stock price

With all the H1Bs and outsourced roles (totaling millions of jobs), no wonder the job market is “down”. Not to mention, I know several people in office who got their children internships and full time roles here. This cr-p is ridiculous and all companies who partake in undermining American opportunities should be fined heavily and required to hire locally. Dont start with “lack of talent”. Thats a lie. We have more than enough, these companies just don’t want to train or pay Americans when they could do it for a fraction with foreigners.

From CNBC.com:
Similarly, IBM replaced its HR functions with AI that handled around 94% of routine requests but was unable to meet the other 6%, which included ethical dilemmas. IBM then announced plans to triple its U.S. entry-level hiring across all business units in 2026.

U.S. employers announced 45,849 job cuts in June. This total represents a 53% decrease from May's figures. Technology remained the leading sector for cuts, with 15,503 announced. Artificial Intelligence was the primary reason cited for 14,029 job cuts. Overall hiring plans for June also saw a decrease from the previous month.

We went from working with the vendor’s offshore contractors to now converting them to FTEs and bringing more of them. At the same time, hiring here is being scaled back, and I’d expect local headcount to keep dropping as the India team ramps up. Wondering how you see that playing out.

The U.S. Food and Dr-g Administration (USFDA) is authorized to hire 2,200 new staff. This follows the agency cutting over 3,000 employees last year. The job reductions had raised concerns about the FDA's dr-g review capacity. Approximately 600 new employees are currently onboarding, with some already started. Officials report improving staff morale and reduced attrition rates.

Ford is rehiring veteran engineers to fix quality problems created by Ford's rush to implement AI/automation (admitted by their VP of vehicle hardware engineering - Charles Po-n). Oops, duh. At least they recognize the problem and how to address it. As an aside, building an already designed vehicle has got to be more "automatable" than designing a cell site and the even more "thinking/thoughtful" part - walking that project through all of the issues that pop up from the initial design through turn up.

Ford executives said they have hired 350 veteran engineers — some of them were former employees, while others had been working at suppliers — after artificial intelligence and automated systems failed to deliver the desired quality level.

Bloomberg reports the company’s chief operating officer Kumar Galhotra told journalists that Ford had been “relying more and more on automated quality systems” with disappointing results. So the company “brought back technical specialists,” and those specialists “hunt for failure points before a part ever reaches the plant floor.”

Charles Po-n, Ford’s vice president of vehicle hardware engineering, added, “Mistakenly we thought that by just introducing artificial intelligence and ingesting the design requirements that we had, that that would produce a high-quality product.”

To be clear, this doesn’t mean Ford is abandoning its AI plans entirely. Instead, it’s using the rehired employees — referred to as “gray beard” engineers — to train younger staff and reprogram AI tools.

This rehiring seems to be paying off, resulting in what Ford CEO Jim Farley said are things like lowered warranty and recall costs, “contributing to literally hundreds and hundreds of millions of dollars of a tailwind for Ford on cost.” The automaker also claimed the top spot among mainstream brands in the JD Power Initial Quality Survey released this week.

They laid off people holding the project together and kept the ship afloat. It's funny how none of the senior leaders are not getting laid off but people doing the actual work are. They have been hiring massively .. there are 5000+ opening in Optum currently, 1000+ IT roles, so it's not a budget issue... It almost seems like being smart and good at what you do and bending to your managers will is seen as a weakness..the most arrogant Karens and Kens that push back at everything are the only one surviving in this burning he-l. Better start worshipping Satan if you want to survive the coming rounds.

I don’t know how it is in other organizations, but EMTech is aggressively hiring in BTC. Either move to a safer department or keep your options open and look elsewhere. I know strategy advisors are always on confidential projects, so they can’t talk about them, but you can still get useful signals from them.

Anyone else got it? I'm in SF bay area, and the letter has couple job codes for bay area too. It asks me to apply for those.
Why does Oracle send out this letter by Fedex? It seems they laid off too many people, and they're desperately looking for new ones. I just had a long vacation, and planned to start looking for new job now, so I'm thinking if I should apply. If I do, and got the offer, do I need to return the package I got earlier?

Seeking new employment can feel like a full-time job. Yet, positive developments exist in the hiring sector. Companies are reportedly rehiring employees. These rehires occur after prior AI-related layoffs. Applicants can learn how to distinguish themselves.

Daikin Comfort Technologies North America is expanding its workforce. The company aims to fill approximately 400 production positions. These jobs are located at its Daikin Texas Technology Park in Waller. Employees will manufacture heating and air conditioning systems. This hiring push contrasts with recent layoffs by other Texas employers.

We've been trying to fill a role for months, and we've gotten almost no qualified applicants. It almost feels like qualified people have heard the stories, know what it's like here, and are staying away as a result. We desperately need help, but I don't think we'll get it anytime soon.

Anyone?

who will be hiring, and then give the new hires no hours. ??????

LPL's recruiter told me in March that there was a hold on hiring till end of May. This is now June. All of my applications are getting rejected without a phone call.

I've been applying for two months and haven't heard back from anyone. Is this normal now? Things have really changed.

How can you find our if you've been blackballed from being rehired

Asante health system is conducting layoffs while simultaneously recruiting new staff. CEO Tom Gessel explained this dual approach in an email to staff.

So USAA is doing corporate investigations on lower level employees for RTO, yet they keep hiring executives to be remote, how hypocritical is that? I submitted a JAR earlier today once I saw on LinkedIn the new Chief Information Security Officer is remote. My reasoning, my director is remote in San Diego, ED is remote in New York, a girl on my team remote in Hawaii, and another girl remote in New Mexico and a guy remote in Iowa. Yet I’m the only one in office (Charlotte) and I live in South Carolina, but since it’s only 58 miles and not 60, I’m told to be in office.

I usually come on here for small bursts for mental health.

So we went from We are hiring and have returned to growth

To immediately calling the inbetween layoffs (that were valid) low skill.

To now saying it's only Sales, who have also had pretty high turnover.

You guys have strange lore over here. No that's magically stopping all the debt. Can yall at least collect the new ones for me? 🥺

HR lackies.

2600 names and counting.

From HR here
And shocked with my recent experience.
Had an opening which is not a Visa sponsorship position.
Hiring manager was so mad and ended up convincing his LL4 and my boss and changed to Visa sponsorship. His LL4 and My leadership is also Indian.
Later he confessed to me saying his cousins badly need a Job who is on OPT Visa and has only 30 days, else she have to go back to India..
He even modified the resume to match the Job description..unfortunately HR hands are tight with this as no substantial evidence (except 2 different resumes)

Heard from someone in CBG that there's a hiring freeze.

Anyone know anything?

Recent tech sector layoffs are causing a significant talent migration. Healthcare and manufacturing industries are actively absorbing these available workers. Tech-related hiring in healthcare increased by 8% compared to the previous year. Manufacturing also saw a 4% rise in tech-related hiring. Computer programmer is identified as the fastest-growing tech occupation.

ICIMS research indicates a growing demand for artificial intelligence talent. This trend occurs across multiple sectors, despite recent tech industry job reductions. Job openings for computer programmers and software developers increased significantly. However, the overall talent pool has not kept pace with this rising demand. Applicant volume decreased while job openings grew, creating hiring challenges.
