Ladies Get Hired: Ask a Recruiter

The job market has been a rollercoaster over the past few years (to put it lightly.) First, there were furloughs and layoffs. Then the pendulum swung the other direction as employees quit en masse (“The Great Resignation) and companies had to really compete for talent. But not, with rising inflation and the potential for another (!) recession, we're seeing a new wave of layoffs, hiring freezes, and something we'd never heard of before…rescinded job offers.

So what the HECK is going on?!

Enter Ladies Get Hired: Ask a Recruiter, our new Instagram Live series where Ladies Get Paid founder and author Claire Wasserman, interviews recruiters, headhunters, HR folks, and staffing firms across the U.S., to get a better sense of what's happening in the job market and ways candidates can stand out. For our second installment, we're interviewing Allison Venditti, founder of Moms at Work.

Topics covered include:

• Employees pushing back
• Unionization changing corporate expectations and culture
• Pay transparency and its deep impact on closing the wage gap.
