My fellow South Africans think I'm crazy not to explore emigrating. But I think Van is with me on this one...we live in a beautiful country, and it will take a hell of a lot more to take us away from access to the bush :)

100% - South Africa might be the most beautiful country I have visited. Look forward to seeing it again soon!

Hi @Hung! I'm a remote worker and have been for nearly 10 years. This allowed me to relocate to another area based on my spouse's needs nearly 3 years ago. I'm enamored with the idea of becoming a talent nomad. Rent the house for a year and head out on the road. A fella can dream!

Hi @Hung! I'd be interested in doing a Brainfood Live. I love chatting about things like retention (hiring with retention in mind, how to train your HMs on retention from the get-go, and how the recession impacts hiring and retention strategy), reference checking (and why I think it isn't the best use of time), and how to successfully measure recruiter bandwidth & success without using metrics like Time to Fill.

Hi @Hung! I'm very interested in learning more about the Brainfood Tribune. I can be reached at bree@ergatta.com or I'll await a response with more info here :) I've been following your newsletter since my agency days and can't express how valuable I have found it over the years. Thanks for sharing this incredible content!

👏Reads like another epic edition @Hung! Nomad or not? I would love to, but family commitments: 🤽🏻‍♂️child with 5years to go / hubby with 25year commitment to the same org... they’re the immovable anchors. Give us 5 years though... may even see you in your family’s home village! 🧘🏼‍♀️🛺🚡🚞🚀

🙌 think that is trade off - great family life vs greater flexibility of movement. I suspect green might look greener from either side!
