The current job market is challenging, with niche roles requiring specific experience and personal touch in recruitment.
Just because someone is highly qualified, great at what they do and has impressive experience, doesn't mean they are a good fit for your organization or your culture. If you want your business to thrive in the marketplace, you need to filter out potential employees who may not be a great fit for your organization and attract those who are the most likely to thrive.
The final New York City mayoral debate was Zohran Mamdani's to lose. The Democratic nominee had a great first debate, is polling ahead of independent Andrew Cuomo and Republican nominee Curtis Sliwa and is widely considered to be the future mayor of New York City. Yet Mamdani, a state legislator, failed to answer some important questions in the Oct. 22 debate on ballot measures and public schooling, underscoring concerns about his experience level. It wasn't that he performed poorly; he just wasn't as strong as I had hoped he'd be. Despite this, I still believe he's the best candidate in the race.
Democratic nominee Zohran Mamdani and independent candidate Andrew Cuomo lobbed attacks at each other during the first of two general election debates in the New York City mayoral race on Thursday, as Cuomo seeks to chip away at his opponent's comfortable lead. It was the first time the candidates were back on the debate stage since Mayor Eric Adams exited the race in September. Despite the fact that the debate also included Republican Curtis Sliwa, the fighting between the New York State assemblymember and the former New York governor took center stage at the event, which was hosted by NBC 4 New York/WNBC, Telemundo 47/WNJU and Politico.
