The Role of Technology in Industrial Executive Search: Innovations and Impact 

Technology has fundamentally changed the way industrial executive search is conducted, infusing the process with precision, speed, and a more profound strategic alignment. The infusion of advanced technologies like artificial intelligence, machine learning, and data analytics has not only streamlined the identification and vetting of candidates but also enriched the quality of matches between executives and organizations. 

Artificial intelligence (AI) plays a pivotal role by automating the search for potential candidates, sifting through large data sets to find matches based on experience, skills, and potential cultural fit. This use of AI reduces reliance on traditional, sometimes subjective decision-making processes, ensuring a more objective approach to candidate selection. Furthermore, AI can help predict candidate success in specific roles, enhancing the long-term effectiveness of recruitment efforts. 

Machine learning algorithms refine these processes over time, learning from each search to improve future outcomes. They analyze past hiring success and modify the search parameters to better identify candidates who are likely to succeed in a company’s specific context. This adaptive approach is crucial in industries where the requirements and challenges evolve rapidly. 

Big data analytics also significantly contributes by enabling firms to analyze trends and patterns across the employment landscape. This analysis helps predict industry shifts, identify skills in high demand, and understand deeper nuances in leadership roles that are critical to driving business success in various sectors. 

Vantedge Search integrates these technological innovations into its services to ensure robust and forward-thinking recruitment strategies. By employing a mix of traditional techniques and cutting-edge technologies, the firm effectively meets the dynamic needs of industries ranging from technology to healthcare. Their emphasis on diversity also helps in building leadership teams that can bring varied perspectives to tackle complex business challenges. 

Beyond technology, the approach to executive search is increasingly becoming consultative and strategic. Modern search firms do not just fill positions but work closely with clients to understand their long-term strategic goals and how a leadership role fits into them. This consultative approach ensures that the leaders placed are not only capable of fulfilling their current roles but are also equipped to steer the company through future challenges. 

Vantedge Search exemplifies this strategic approach by not just placing leaders but ensuring they are a catalyst for transformation and long-term success within their organizations. The firm’s commitment to long-term partnerships with its clients is reflective of a broader industry trend where search firms are seen as crucial strategic advisors, not just service providers. 

In conclusion, the role of technology in industrial executive search has transcended the mere automation of processes. It has transformed executive search into a strategic element of business planning, essential for navigating the complexities of the modern industrial landscape. As this field continues to evolve, technology will play an even larger role, driving the future of how leaders are discovered, evaluated, and integrated into organizations, shaping not just businesses but entire industries.

[EN] How to Follow Folks On LinkedIn Who Don’t Repeat “Rejection is Redirection.”

Lord give me patience–if I hear one more person telling me that “rejection is redirection” I’m blocking them before Twitter takes away the feature. 

… Okay, that may be extreme–but I want to start off this post by asking folks to refrain from that advice. I don’t have to remind other game developers how messed up the job market is, but I can say this much: I know a thing or two about job hunting. 

It takes time. Patience–a lot of it. Some studios ghost their applicants, others spend four months debating on who to grant that first interview–without guaranteeing a second or third round. Having been both a recruiter (and currently searching for a writing role) I picked up a few bits of trivia that I wish to share with others. 

First: Remote Networking Events:

Discord is going to be your best friend, along with other tools. It’s accessible, and offers a more casual environment than LinkedIn. Before naming a few networking events, here’s a few things to bear in mind:

Always have either a Sticky Note or WordPad that includes your preferred name, pronouns, a brief two to three sentence introduction on who you are and what sets you apart, along with your social media links and portfolio for potential recruiters to reach out to you. 

Take a deep breath. I know it can be daunting to put yourself out there, but in a job market full of so much competition, it’s the best way to gain an upper hand. 

Set up reminders and be efficient. 

Remember that everyone is human. This may sound like a weird one, but you’d be surprised at how often folks place game developers on a pedestal either because of the studio they work in, the awards they have won, etcetera etcetera. The best conversations and connections emerge from just relaxing and having a fun time with folks! 

Eventbrite.com Go on www.eventbrite.com and include the “remote” filters and free admission. Add key words such as “game developer meeting” or “game developer networking” for example. If you wish to get more specific, add the title you wish to have and see if you can meet folks who specialize in your field who can offer advice on how to break into the field. 

PowerToFly. Here, you can upload your resume and state where in the tech industry you would want to specialize in.

THIS WEEK they will have an event featuring to assist folx with visible and invisible disabilities from August 23, 2023 until August 24, 2023. You can sign up here: https://powertofly.com/events/virtual-job-fair/?utm_campaign=Sunday%20B2C%20Newsletter&utm_medium=email&_hsmi=270953365&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-_HrFZZIbObYArT2rnkBkTW0QMv-gHNY9LDc0LIp0pfCuFHnk01A0sqaz1W7KeYORbvHtSVX7R0gO4XKS_MfGeRqYdpog&utm_content=270926294&utm_source=hs_email

Similarly, there are events hosted by PowerToFly for members of the LGTBQIA+ community, the BIPOC community--all of which are free, the calendar with the dates is on their website.

LinkedIn Audio Events. These are great events to not only meet recruiters and employers from various studios, but also greet other fellow job hunters. The best part about this industry is the camaraderie and support–find someone who could give you a job, or find someone who could give you tips on improving your resume. 

List of LinkedIn Creators with Events: 

Aida Figuerola (https://www.linkedin.com/in/afiguerola/) 

Upcoming Event on August 22, 2023: https://www.linkedin.com/events/gamingbackstage-de-iwithjasmina7097554161021415424/

Justin Williams 

Previous Event: (Remember you can rewatch it, and take note of the advice provided by recruiters in AAA studios!) https://www.linkedin.com/in/justinalanwilliams/recent-activity/all/ 

Amir Satvat (https://www.linkedin.com/in/amirsatvat/)   

Amir has the Amir Awards, and often features creators helping the video game industry–additionally, he has an organized spreadsheet with video game job openings AND mentorship opportunities. 

Here is a link to the job directory from August 13, 2023. You’ll notice how often he updates it. https://www.linkedin.com/posts/amirsatvat_friends-i-am-pleased-to-present-the-august-activity-7096622772239388672-dCRh?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop

If you are job hunting, you can submit your most recent/updated resume–there are recruiters and employers that observe Amir’s database to find candidates. .

Last but not least, there is a network of mentors willing to help with specialized fields, giving industry advice, resume writing assistance and more–all of the details are on Amir’s page and posts. 

Arin Goldsmith (https://www.linkedin.com/in/arin-goldsmith/)

Previous Event: (https://www.linkedin.com/events/7090354190849323009/comments)/

A unique component in the gaming industry is how professionals are encouraged to have their own brands–and Arin provides excellent advice. When searching for a job, it helps having a platform so that whenever someone is looking for a game developer, they know they have to reach you because only you can do a certain thing–and that’s what should be on your portfolio, brand, etc. 

Though not a recruiter, Arin also provides excellent advice to folks who have 0 experience in the gaming industry but wish to use their transferable skills in the development of video games. 

List of Creators on Twitter With Great Advice: 

A brief sidenote: hashtags will be your friend when looking for jobs. Every social media platform has an algorithm that detects what content you interact with the most, so if you constantly like posts from recruiters, or posts that have keywords like your dream job title, department, field of study–those posts will be pushed to your feed more often than others. 

Some platforms allow you to follow hashtags and set up alarms–so, follow the hashtags involving your field of study and see a few freelancing opportunities come up!

Okay, now about creators:

Javiera Cordero: An amazing producer, Javiera created a Notion template that has saved my life–and job opportunities. 

The link is: https://javieracordero.notion.site/Job-Application-Manager-fce5406854f0475aa21d5fcd9fa5e668

It has several categories including “preparing”, “applied”, and “interviewing.”

Additionally, there are:

Cover Letter samples.

Dozens of job sites.

Websites for marginalized communities.

Possible Interview Questions

And more! (gracias Javiera <3)

Should I post “that”?

“My journey with X has ended.” “Unfortunately, I have been affected by layoffs.” “I’ve been trying to keep it together for the past few months, but I need help…”

Posts of this nature have increased exponentially. I’ve had to write some–and I encourage everyone to do the same, and I know it is not easy.

It’s not easy to be vulnerable, especially in front of many professionals.

But some of them may be your future coworkers–if you need help, tell your network. Not to mention, that if you have not come across a job for a while this lets recruiters know why there is a gap on your resume. It was not due to a gap year, it was due to a recession and a million other things. 

How do I reach out?

Reach out to folks who are in a role similar to what you are striving towards. As a narrative designer, I often try to connect with other narrative designers–mainly because they have the best dad jokes and D&D campaigns, but I digress. 

Apply to as many studios as you can, then head to LinkedIn. Look up the studio, and see if there are any of the following:

Alumni from your alma mater. 

Folks in your specialized field.* 

Mutual Connections. 

First, reach out to mutual connections. See if they are willing to introduce you to someone in the studio you just applied. Or, try and meet up with someone who you went to school with–share stories and inside jokes from the institution, and if the subject of employment comes up, use that as a segue to explain your situation. 

Do not cold call people with messages like, “Do you have a job for me?” It’s not a good look–and, again, people are human. They will know when they are being contacted because of their job title–so avoid that. 

*Yes, there is a lot of support in the gaming community. But it does not always happen–sometimes, if someone has little to no social media presence, no profile picture it may be for a reason. Understand that there are times where game developers are, unfortunately, treated poorly by gamers and decide to limit what messages they can accept. It’s all about getting a hint, basically–but digitally.

Anyways, be nice! Don’t weird any game developers out and get that job.

you're already treading hot water. this stuff bleeds into cons and costs people opportunities they didn't even know they could have had.

i'm not a con business person though i just do fl-mecon for fun 😔 and also interacting with people in person you really realize how these kinds of debates are terminally online... also i'm confident enough in my talent to know there's always other shit around the corner with more pleasant people to work with so i don't know if hypotethical opportunities being lost overweight the aforementioned pros

#the biggest jobs i've gotten in the past year have been through recruiters finding me on ig/twitter over like. polished pieces going viral #that said i dont doubt that there's insane terminally online people in all of the art industries like they EXIST i just dont know if the #few opportunities they would deny me are worth living in fear lol #inbox.txt

[izzyscursedcorner]

Me thinking about graduation: *sobs* DHXJXXJXJXJ everyone is lying to me! No one wants to hire animators who didn’t go to an art school let alone one who didn’t attend a school in Cali! Four years on a degree just to be rejected from INTERNSHIPS just because I’m not a senior animator!

Me five minutes later after eating:

…Perhaps I was a little… too harsh…

…Nah. I might have shit I gotta learn, but the fact that as soon as I mention my school you lose ALL interest you had in me is actually fucked.

#I’m looking at you Mike wisoski #can’t have shit in the entertainment industry #doesn’t help that I started during Covid and was the schools Guineapig to fix the fucking major #Not even gonna look at what I make my stuff in? #bro #if I can make something great with the shittiest tools possible… IMAGINE WHAT I COULD DO WITH.

Can't even mention that a store near me is clearly using abusing the TFW program because they refuse to pay little more than minimum wage in a high cost of living area (also you won't get benefits and you'll only be part-time) because the fascists and right-wingers will jump in to say it's about immigration and white replacement.

No, it's because rich white people want to hoard even more money and found an intentional loophole to both make more money (via paying employees less) and also have more power over employees, employees who may or may not know Canadian employment laws (or safety laws) and even if they do, don't have the ability or support to try to hold the company accountable.

You can absolutely criticize the federal government for keeping the loophole open but it predates Trudeau by decades and it was Harper who both expanded the program and added a way for companies to fast-track TFWs. It was also under Harper that companies started firing Canadians (or not hiring them) and then requesting permission to mass-hire TFWs instead.

But the way the right wing talks, you would think Trudeau started this whole thing and the poor multi-million and multi-billion dollar companies are being taken advantage of. Also that housing prices, lack of new developments, and zoning issues started with Trudeau and are the fault of mass-immigration he has a boner for instead of being an issue for decades and experts warning this would happen if governments didn't act ASAP.

Instead the neolibs and cons kept cutting back and kicking that can down the road, a can that started being kicked by Mulroney and the Conservative Party.

#as a 90s kid i grew up with warnings about healthcare and housing and how we needed mass immigration or a massive baby boom #because of the utter lack of federal support and an aging workforce #the systems were already being strained to their limits and there literally weren't enough millennials to replace retiring workers #*or* bring in enough taxes to fund said systems when the system needed it the most #not even increase funding just keeping the same funding that was already not enough #also the right conveniently ignores (or doesn't know about) the extremely predatory recruitment industry #that targets people overseas while lying and charging large amounts of money to bring tfws to canada #you could even blame chretien for expanding it to include 'low-skilled' workers which is what companies are abusing it for #hell even trudeau sr for creating it in the first place even though it was originally made for high-skilled or niche jobs #but no the blame is always trudeau jr with a ton of racism and brownnosing capitalists #because all these problems sprang up suddenly under him #and in no way did harper start/expand/not end/be complicit in any of this /s #though i guess for some of the fascists it seems that way 'cause they weren't personally affected by it until now #and companies have stopped trying to pretend they aren't grabbing as much money as possible because fuck anyone else #even though it's been like that for decades and capitalism itself encourages companies to skim money off the top #while not having the checks and balances to limit just how much #for that you need governments to regulate things and that doesn't work when you have leaders who are anti-regulation #and who believe in trickle down economics #just... the whole thing is not happening in a bubble and involves multiple people and both the neolibs and cons #because it's been building for decades #but you can't bloody say that because the moment you mention housing/jobs/healthcare and/or tfws #you get inundated by fascists who think you're one of them and hit you with some of the most unhinged shit #or who don't even care about you and just want someone to rant at about how it's the evil left's fault for everything #hell you can't even say you don't like trudeau because same thing: fascists think you're one of them or someone to bring into the cult

What is a "recruiting event" like in your industry?

There's a variety of different kinds of recruiting events. I've never been invited to a digital recruiting event, but the in-person events typically fall under one of two major categories:

Tables at a Show

This is common at larger industry events like GDC, or at tech job fair events at universities. We set up a table or booth on the show floor, hand out branded swag like t-shirts and toys, and talk to the variety of job seekers who come by. The table is staffed primarily by recruiters and HR people who have a list of job descriptions they're looking to fill. These recruiters will have a few representatives from engineering, design, art, production, etc. nearby that they can set up for impromptu interview sessions. The table is often where we get a lot of junior job seeker resumes. The more promising candidates usually get asked back to talk to one of the interviewers and/or invited to a...

Recruiting Party

This is typically an event thrown by the studio at some offsite location (often a bar or restaurant) where there's free food and drinks, party games and prizes, and a number of developers from the recruiting studio on hand. Those invited to these recruiting parties are usually either the top picks of candidates gathered from the table, or "on-the-list" candidates explicitly invited to these events. Explicit invitees to these events are usually referrals from employees. Recruiting parties run the gamut of being strictly-business where it's obvious that the devs in attendance are there for the express purpose of vetting the candidates over a meal, all the way down to drunken affairs where the alcohol flows freely and are the beginning of many convention horror stories.

The purpose of recruiting events is to gather a bunch of candidates as potential employees. We cast a wider net with tables at bigger events, and we hold informal interviews at the recruiting parties to skip the sifting of many candidate resumes. These kind of live events primarily exist to shortcut the normal and lengthy hiring process with face-to-face contact.

Succession Planning and Talent Management in Industrial Leadership 

Succession planning and talent management are critical elements for sustaining leadership and driving growth within the industrial sector. The ever-changing landscape of industrial leadership demands a proactive approach to identifying and nurturing the next generation of leaders. This is where the concepts of succession planning and talent management become indispensable, ensuring that organizations are always ready for the future, regardless of the uncertainties it may hold. 

Succession planning is more than just a backup plan; it's a strategic process for identifying and developing potential leaders within an organization to fill key positions as they become available. It's about foresight—recognizing the skills and attributes needed to steer a company through future challenges and opportunities. Talent management, on the other hand, encompasses a broader scope, focusing on attracting, retaining, and developing the best employees across all levels of the organization. Together, these practices ensure that a company maintains a continuous pipeline of highly skilled individuals ready to take on leadership roles. 

The industrial sector, with its unique set of challenges including technological advancements, regulatory changes, and market shifts, requires leaders who are not only adept at managing complex operations but also visionary enough to lead innovation. Industrial recruitment plays a pivotal role in this scenario, serving as the bridge that connects organizations with the right talent. The process involves identifying individuals with the necessary technical skills and those who show the leadership qualities required to thrive in an industrial setting. 

For companies in the industrial sector, the stakes couldn't be higher. The rapid pace of innovation and the increasing complexity of global supply chains demand a robust strategy for leadership development and talent management. It's about creating a culture of continuous learning and adaptation, where potential leaders are identified early and given the opportunities to grow their skills through targeted training programs, mentorship, and hands-on experience.

i wish there was a mechanism where you could leave publicly visible feedback on a company’s recruitment process because they are all so utterly dogshit at making the experience tolerable for applicants

the venn diagram of people who think all Israelis deserve to suffer by virtue of being born in and/or living in Israel and people who think all veterans should be considered war criminals and not be supported after their service is so nauseatingly close to being a circle

#most US veterans in particular did not join the military to kill people #they did it because they couldn’t afford to go to college #or needed affordable healthcare for someone they love #or were manipulated by recruiters #or pressured to join by family #might i remind you #87% of recruits are 18 to 24 years old #look me in the eye and tell me you stand by everything you believed at 18 years old #if you do i suggest growing and changing as a person #you can hate the military industrial complex and still recognize that veterans are people
