I overheard two guys from another office in our building this morning talking about not having enough product to deliver to their clients. One asked the other, “can’t we make an excuse for each of them for why they wont get their product?” And the o…

In my personal life, my Colombian wife "Maria Margarita" is now only Maria and that has been the case since her time here as an exchange student. If you addressed her Maria Margarita today, you'd have her…

Excuses are for losers!
I overheard two guys from another office in our building this morning talking about not having enough product to deliver to their clients. One asked the other, “can’t we make an excuse for each of them for why they wont get their product?” And the other replied, “We can, but it just hasn’t been done yet.”While LatPro doesn’t have the manufacturing piece of the equation to worry about like these guys, every company faces challenges that come the… Continue

Antonio said… - Hello Rob,
I appreciate Latpro giving me and my current employer a forum to explore personal and partner for opportunities to meet and network with friends who want to find out more about me and IKEA and our careers. Do you have anything organized locally? I am attending my east valley HR group meeting soon and letting others know about Latpro. If you are in the neighborhood I would gladly give you a tour of the store. Thanks again Antonio

I'm in the Charlotte, NC area, my MHR is in Organizational Development, but Sales/Marketing/International Business Development is my forte. If I can help with ideas on jobs for Hispanics, let me know...... I've helped quite a few individuals in their quest for a job as a bilingual, mostly to negotiate for their skill.

Lina Diaz said… - Hi Rob,
AT&T Mobility partnered up with LatPro last year to target some bilingual-Spanish hires especially for our IL/WI market. I'm not sure if we are currently a client of yours. I do assist with the diversity hiring for the Central Region as I'm one of the Staffing Managers who conduct the bilingual fluency checks for our retail positions.
I just saw you visited Colombia- that is awesome! If you need any additional information please let me know. My manager has asked me to look into any free networking sites where other Staffing Managers may be able to network and find assistance with their bilingual hiring. Please let me know if there are any upcoming free Latpro events.
Gracias!
Lina

Ted said… - Rob,
I received your message post about networking with professionals that work in companies that are reaching out or recruiting diversity personnel. Unfortunately, I am leaving my recruiting position at the end of this week. I would be happy to discuss what I or the Navy have done or are doing to reach out to diversity professionals.
Sincerely,
Ted
