I was interested in hearing what channels they were using to reach out to […]
So today I thought I’d write about a few apps, websites, and extensions we use to make our lives easier in the office. Many of our team members here at RZ use these, and we thought we’d share this list with all of you so that maybe you can find […]

I cringe sometimes, when I see some of the messages recruiters send to candidates. No offense (believe me I’ve been just as quality)!

With new technologies growing exponentially, paired with how easily available it has become to access such technology, it […]
It’s no secret that the best employees are taken…but that doesn’t mean you can’t pitch them. Sure, you’ll have to go up against their company loyalty but anything’s goes in today’s economy. In a 2014 report by LinkedIn, 45% of employed respondents were open to talking with a recruiter. Now, […]
Yes, I know what you might be thinking. Why should I care about how Google hires, when I’m a restaurant recruiter and Google is a goliath software company? Two completely different industries, I get it. Well, I’ll leave you with the words of Pablo Picasso: “good artists copy, great artists […]
With the improving economy, restaurant industry sales are expected to hit a record high of $709.2 billion in 2015. Not bad.
