Job Seeker: Breaking Down Culture Fit
Submitted by: Lindsay Gray, Area Recruiting Manager For an active job seeker, one of the most concerning elements in a job hunt is whether you will be a culture fit within an organization.

Based on the principles found in the book “Juggling Elephants,” this fun workshop helped the team’s leadership learn how to effectively prioritize, focus …
