Having been pretty unimpressed with Human Resource professionals that I have met in the university sector, the fact that (apparently) the UK now has more people working in HR than are doctors or lawyers may be one more factor in the UK's rubbish management problem - too many HR people with their fingers in the recruitment & retention processes of large organisations?

Untrained Synthetic Staff: The Agents of Chaos Warning
The report "Agents of Chaos" highlights the risks associated with emerging technology that acts like personnel, following instructions without appropriate judgment. Unlike traditional failures, these agents can be misled and exhibit human-like vulnerabilities. The report emphasizes the need for organizations to adapt their understanding of systems’ behavior under pressure and improve governance to mitigate risks.https://lpixa.wordpress.com/2026/05/03/untrained-synthetic-staff-the-agents-of-chaos-warning/
The largest library by me is hiring someone to lead the continuing education department which is something I am very passionate about. Trying to figure out how to overcome their Masters degree requirement though which I don't have and don't want to pay for.
Why do good employees leave – even when everything seems fine? 🧠
// Filippa Ahlcrona – Head of Q by Consid International, Strategic Lead for Equality
Many companies invest time and money in recruiting – only to lose people again in everyday working life. Often it's not about salary or benefits, but something more fundamental: how well people actually work together. As Strategic Lead for Equality at Q by Consid, she works with companies across 40+ European locations – with one clear goal: better collaboration, higher performance and a culture that retains talent. 💡
Her conviction: the talent shortage isn't just a recruiting problem – it's a leadership and culture problem.

“Don’t stop hiring humans. Stop hiring the wrong humans” is the campaign slogan for Artisan, a startup building AI employees for outbound sales and customer engagement. “I’ve made a lot of hiring mistakes — like, a lot within every single role,” co-founder and CEO Jaspar Carmichael-Jack told @Techcrunch about the company's learning process.

Boston.com | What is skillfishing? How employers can spot real skills in the AI hiring era. by Pattie Hunt Sinacole
AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.
Skillfishing, a term coined by the Society of Human Resources Management, describes the gap between how job candidates present their abilities—often polished by professional resume services and AI tools that generate idealized resumes, cover letters, and even real‑time interview answers—and how they actually perform on the job. As AI makes it easier to “upskill” a candidate’s presentation, employers face greater difficulty uncovering true capability, especially when interview responses are rehearsed or generated by AI and references are coached. To combat this, hiring teams should set a tone of honesty, adjust expectations to accept candidates who meet at least 75 % of required skills, conduct multiple and varied interview interactions (including in‑person assessments), use real‑world tasks such as written prompts or role‑plays, rigorously check references, and invest in solid onboarding that emphasizes authentic performance over flawless appearances. By focusing on demonstrated ability and authenticity rather than polished façades, organizations can reduce the risk of hiring candidates who look perfect on paper but fall short in practice.
