1. I'm hiring.

2. Because I've worked in/ on a jobs board in the past (that was fun @ShanePike) I found myself thinking through a lot of old lessons, stats.

This post doesn't seem to exist on the web anymore, but I referenced things I learned from it several times this week.
The way people search for jobs is cyclical day-to-day every week.
The biggest day of organic job search interest is typically the Monday after New Years, every year.
Historically (this is the stat I kept citing internally the last few weeks) the period between Thanksgiving and New Years Day is when the fewest people are in-market for a new job.

(I don't know if this will be true during COVID/ a recessionary environment - but I'll find out!)
Most hiring managers and executives would be surprised to learn how few people search for jobs at *their* company, specifically.

With widespread WFH & hybrid working, I'd love to see how people search today and whether that has changed.
Most people job search during working hours.

Read into that what you will; but I've theorized that most people who are organically searching for jobs are intentionally leaving something.

Separating FROM, not proactively joining TO if you will.
