    Solving Hiring Challenges in the Healthcare Industry (94)

    Summary In this episode, Dr. Michael Neal, founder and CEO of Build My Team, shares revolutionary insights on how healthcare staffing can be transformed by focusing on candidates' strengths and talents over traditional experience. He discusses the main challenges in healthcare staffing, from hiring mistakes to attracting top talent. Dr. Neal highlights how Build My Team uses systematized processes, algorithms, and analytics to find high-quality candidates and why it's essential to hire A players and remove underperforming team members. Additionally, he emphasizes the importance of in-person care in healthcare despite the growing demand for remote work. Key Takeaways Building a successful healthcare team starts with identifying candidates' strengths and talents instead of focusing solely on experience. Healthcare staffing challenges include candidates not reading job descriptions, indecision in hiring, and applicants applying to multiple healthcare positions. Hiring mistakes can be minimized by using a structured system to evaluate beyond resumes. Prioritizing A players and eliminating underperformers is crucial for building a high-performing team. Algorithms and data-driven analytics play a significant role in modern healthcare hiring. Despite the rise of remote work, in-person healthcare remains essential for quality care. Smaller healthcare practices can attract top talent by offering opportunities for meaningful contributions. The future of healthcare staffing will see a smaller labor pool, making it even more important to hire based on strengths and talents.

    Thyroid Cancer Awareness: Take Your PTO and Focus On Your Health (92)

    Episode Title: "Thyroid Cancer Awareness: Why Professionals Should Prioritize Their Health & PTO" In this special episode of Jess Get Hired, I’m opening up about something deeply personal—my recent diagnosis of papillary thyroid carcinoma, a type of thyroid cancer. As Thyroid Cancer Awareness Month comes to a close, I want to share my journey and talk about how important it is for busy professionals to take time for their health. So often, we overlook small signs and symptoms, writing them off as stress or simply getting older. But my story is a reminder that even minor changes in your body can be signals of something more serious. In this episode, I talk about my experience, why we need to prioritize our health, and why taking PTO without guilt is so important. Key Points Covered: My journey: How a routine scan led to my thyroid cancer diagnosis. Common thyroid cancer symptoms and why they’re often ignored. The importance of early detection and routine checkups. Why professionals need to take PTO and prioritize their health, guilt-free. Important facts about thyroid cancer: It’s more common than you think and often treatable when caught early. Action steps: How to perform a self-check, schedule annual visits, and use your health benefits to take care of yourself. Important Thyroid Cancer Facts: Thyroid cancer is the fastest-increasing cancer in both men and women. Women are three times more likely to develop thyroid cancer. Most people don’t experience noticeable symptoms until it’s advanced. Early detection through routine checkups can make a huge difference in treatment outcomes. Take action today by scheduling that overdue checkup, performing a neck check, and making your health a priority. Don’t wait for something to go wrong—listen to your body and make time for yourself. I also want to give a quick shoutout to Magic Mind, which has been an essential part of my routine lately. With everything going on, it's helped me stay focused and energized. Magic Mind is a mental performance shot made with nootropics and adaptogens, which helps me manage stress and maintain steady energy without crashing.
