IntelliSource "Flies into Action"

Welcome to the IntelliSource blog. This week, we are sharing with our readers a fun adventure IntelliSource recently partnered with Colorado State University-Global Campus on. Most of our readers know that at IntelliSource, we recruit, hire, manage, motivate and retain staff within Business Services and Information Technology. But did you know, we also have a talent for assisting our client’s with rather unique job requests when needed?

IntelliSource Delivers…………………. “Outside the Nest”

IntelliSource enjoys a good challenge and we like to have fun along the way too.  When CSU’s-Global Campus mascot, Goldie (The Golden Eagle) needed to make an appearance at their Graduation Ceremony recently, IntelliSource “flew into action” to help out.  One of our IntelliSource employees stepped up and played the part of Goldie the Golden Eagle.

What an exciting adventure!  Being right in the middle of the action was a lot of fun and helped to create memories that will last a lifetime for the recent graduates of Colorado State University – Global Campus.  Being a college mascot takes a tremendous amount of energy and stamina per Goldie was invited to participate in multiple photos while meeting graduates and offering congratulations within the community!  IntelliSource thanks the staff at CSU-Global Campus for making this event a special one for their graduates and for their invitation for IntelliSource involvement.

CSU–Global Campus was founded in 2008 and is a 100% online, public university offering bachelor’s completion and master’s degrees.  CSU–Global Campus is part of the Colorado State University System and is headquartered in Greenwood Village, CO.   There are more than 2500 students currently taking classes. The university specializes in non-traditional, adult professional students and students who can’t take part in a traditional campus setting.

IntelliSource is proud to work with all of our local colleges and universities to help graduates locate career opportunities in the Denver metro area.  We pride ourselves in helping our clients match qualified talent with career opportunities.

Community Involvement

Welcome to the IntelliSource Blog. This week’s Blog explores the topic of What managers really seek from today’s employees. We understand that solid partnerships between management and employees help contribute to a positive work culture where results are evident. When businesses forget to emphasize culture, ultimately, they take a bigger risk. In other words, it’s hard for happy employees to deliver poor service as the old saying goes. At IntelliSource, we recognize that our staff plays a KEY role in driving forward motion through change, realignment, and a steady open stream of communication. Not only do we encourage our employees to impress their managers (and clients through quality results), we equally emphasize that our leaders take steps daily to keep their associates happy. A winning partnership!

“You can complain because roses have thorns,

or you can rejoice because thorns have roses.” – Ziggy

Do you provide proactive proposals if a new idea comes to mind for work?  Do you remember to consider solutions along with problems that might need attention?  Do you first offer others in your workplace, the benefit of the doubt before rushing to judgment?

If you do, you are already taking a big step in the right direction towards professional success.  We are excited to pose these questions to get your mind thinking in new directions.  At IntelliSource, we challenge our employees to improve their working relationship with the management teams they support through ACTION not just WORDS.  When you consider the idea of keeping things simple for your manager, they appreciate the time savings and are more open to hear the ideas you offer.  Managers are busy people who appreciate when employees communicate in shorter sentences that make their points clear and easily understandable.  Do you know the true meaning of your job?  Regardless of what it says on your job description, you are there to help the company grow and reach success (which also makes your boss and you look great). Start today off with a new possibility – how will these small changes in your daily routine help you and your manager at your place of employment?

Leadership

Welcome to the IntelliSource Blog. This week, we are discussing what IntelliSource seeks when hiring new employees. You know by now that at IntelliSource, we believe our associates and employees are our greatest assets! We are excited when we identify and hire responsible, proactive, great thinkers who help our company grow with knowledge and ideas to move us forward. These great employees possess a large range of easy to define yet hard to find qualities that are often the benchmarks we utilize to hire. Sharing these thoughts with our BLOG readers this week.

What does IntelliSource seek when hiring?

At IntelliSource, we seek opportunities to partner with professionals who are truly interested in enjoyably engaging with our clients to complete the work we are proud to support.  When we hire at IntelliSource, we are looking for potential employees who SHINE and demonstrate dedication.  We believe that remarkable employees work “outside” their job description without being asked.  These team members seem to always look for new ways to contribute to projects that are assigned.  These professionals think quickly when under pressure and are able to prioritize tasks efficiently and effectively.  Those with a “Get It Done” character (regardless of the challenges ahead) make a big impression on our teams when we hire as well.  IntelliSource recognizes that employees who speak up when others are sometimes quiet often challenge us as a company to realign when necessary.  We hire professionals to THINK not just DO A JOB.  We are open to hearing ideas that are creative from the spirit of improvement from within.  Additionally, those who praise others openly on teams assigned are always a welcome addition.  A positive attitude is contagious!  Finally, when an issue needs to be addressed, the employees we seek out to hire understand the importance of handling sensitive topics or challenges privately when necessary to drive a result.  Trust and integrity ring high when considering new hires, do you have what it takes to be an IntelliSource Associate or Employee?

Hiring those who push the envelope and find new ways to make our processes better (internal desire drives them to contribute vs obligation) is a common characteristic for new hires as we grow.  Hiring the RIGHT people at the RIGHT time to do the RIGHT jobs continues to be our focus.
