CFO's Aren't Hiring Those Under 35

 

According to CBS News, corporate executives aren't interested in hiring anyone under 35. The negative reputation of millennials--lack of loyalty, a sense of entitlement, a need for more intense management--is causing CFO's to look elsewhere, says a study from Duke University and CFO Magazine. Despite many CFO's acknowledging the tech prowess and creativity of those under 35, executives still look to those above the 35 year mark to build out their teams with those who are more likely to be loyal to the company and contribute to the overall culture of the organization.

ISHN shares these tips and more for both employees and employers.

HR Pro Tip: Bonuses

When did the definition of bonus become something your employees count on and feel entitled to at the end of the year--despite how they performed or how profitable the company was the prior 12 months? Bonuses are supposed to be compensation events that get paid IF and only if certain objectives are achieved. There should be specific measures you can monitor, see, and evaluate. Employing metrics means you can reclaim the bonus event and turn it into something earned versus something taken for granted.
