What words and phrases commonly appear in your company’s job ads? And what do they reveal about your organisational culture? David Drew, Principal Mining Engineer at MEC reflects on hiring language in our industry.
What does ‘hiring language’ tell us?
How often do great new ideas, tools and technologies have trouble achieving sustainable implementation, adoption and practical application?
The gap between the inherent value of a new technology or idea and the ability to put it to work effectively is significant. It seems that, even with the most groundbreaking technologies and valuable ideas – where the net benefits for a business or an industry are easy to see – the challenge of successfully converting the innovation to application and business standard is exponentially greater than the initial development.
Some of our spritely MEC team members have begun training for the Sunday Mail Bridge to Brisbane Fun Run in August this year.
Celebrating its 22nd year in 2018, the run has become one of Brisbane’s best-loved events for people from all walks of life. MEC runners will join thousands of competitors on the 10km or 5km courses, which take in some of our city’s iconic landmarks, including jogging over Story Bridge and through the beautiful South Bank Parklands.
