Recruiting in 2024 was a mess. Fake job postings, AI screening AI, recruiters ghosting candidates, and hiring strategies stuck in the Stone Age. 2025 isn’t the time for lazy recruiting.

On this episode of Beyond the Bottom Line, I sit down with Kimberly Arin, CEO of Kim Arin Coaching and Adjunct Professor of Creative Thinking at Montclair State University, to tackle the disconnect between recruiters, candidates, and the hiring process. We dive into:

• Why recruiting needs a creative overhaul (and how to fix it)
• How AI helped AND hurt the recruiting and hiring process
• The biggest mistakes recruiters are making today
• How to build hiring strategies that attract AND retain the right people
• Why belonging matters more than ever in the workplace
• The future of hiring, leadership, and business growth

If your recruiting playbook is outdated, you’re losing top talent, engagement, and long-term success. It’s time to ditch the boring and reimagine hiring.

Tune in now—because the future of recruiting won’t wait.

In this episode of Beyond the Bottom Line, we sit down with Phil and Phil and Sara Frassinelli , the dynamic duo behind one of the most culture-driven staffing businesses in the industry. From being laid off in the midst of an economic downturn to scaling a successful staffing empire, they share their journey of resilience, strategic growth, and the intentional culture that keeps their team engaged and thriving.

We dive into the challenges of entrepreneurship, the importance of finding the right leadership balance, and how they’ve cultivated a people-first approach that has set them apart in a competitive market. Whether you're an entrepreneur, a staffing leader, or just someone looking for inspiration on building a strong business foundation, this episode is packed with real insights and no-fluff wisdom.

Tune in and learn what it takes to not just grow a business—but build a lasting legacy.

Training is only as good as the results it gets.

The true measure of effective training is not just getting it done. It is in the outcomes—how it improves performance, solves challenges, and drives growth.

I've seen first hand, both being a part of large organizations and then later developing and delivering training for systems and Recruiters.....what good programs look like and how effective training can be done and news flash.... its can't all be Elearning and webinar based!

When you don't invest in training that is effective for your people.....how do you expect it to work?

This week we are talking in depth about one of the great factors that drives business growth....and that is Training, and I look forward to this conversation and insights with our guest this week.... Beth Messich!
