A look at how one of the recruits in Auckland formed the future of employment
Lyon Chang is not your typical recruiter. He is a strategic expert, problem solving, and above all, conductor. Its headquarters in Auckland, California, has spent years for mastery of employment, and mixing technology with a human -focused approach. His career extends major companies such as Tesla, Robert Half International and Zum Services, as he led employment efforts on a large scale and refine the recruitment process.
Lyon Simple approach: Employment revolves around more than filling sites. It comes to understanding people. “A biography tells you what someone did, but the conversation tells you who they are,” Leon says.
A profession based on communication
Lyon grew up in Auckland, a city known for its diversity and flexibility. He took those same qualities in his career. After obtaining a bachelor’s degree in economics, a minor in communication, and a master’s degree in education from the University of California, Davis, he entered the world of employment.
His first main role was in Robert Haf, as he specialized in employing administrative, financial and accounting positions. Soon he made a name for himself, and got a global recognition as a great recruiter. He later worked in Tesla, where he helped expand driving use of manufacturing teams.
In Zum Services, one of his biggest challenges faced: launching more than 15 school buses in several states. She requires employing more than 1500 drivers and 50+ employees in a short period. “This was a turning point for me,” reflects Leon. “I realized that employment is not only related to jobs – it is related to societies, economies and real influence.”
Now, Leon returns to Robert Half as a manager to employ financing and accounting, as he will focus on linking companies to the highest financial talents. His goal is to make employment smoother, smarter and more humane.
The role of technology in employment
Lyon witnessed the rise of artificial intelligence, automation and data analyzes in employment. While embracing these tools, he warns against excessive dependence on them. “Technology makes employment faster, but it doesn't make it better,” he explains. “At the end of the day, people employ people, not algorithms.”
It believes that artificial intelligence can be useful in examining CVs, identifying employment trends, and automating repeated tasks. But when it comes to finding the appropriate suitability, nothing replaces direct interaction. “The candidate may not have every skill listed on paper, but if they have the correct mentality and the ability to adapt, it can flourish,” says Lyon.
His philosophy is clear: Use technology to enhance human relationship, not replacing it.
The future of employment
Lyon sees a major transformation in employment. Working remotely, skills -based employment, and focusing more on diversity, fairness, and integration, changes how companies deal with talent acquisition.
“More companies give priority to cultural alignment and the ability to adapt to difficult skills only,” Leon notes. “This is a good thing. The great team is not only limited to those who have the most experience – it is about who can work together to solve problems.”
It also encourages job seekers to adopt the changing scene. “Candidates need to be proactive. Building your skills, communicating with intent, and staying open on opportunities. The labor market develops, and the most adaptive people will flourish.”
Lessons from experience
Over the years, Leon learn some of the main lessons about success in employment and job growth. One of them? tracking. “I cannot tell you how many times I have a simple email to follow up,” he says. “Stability pays fruits.”
Another lesson: carrying risks. Early his career, Leon hesitated at some opportunities because he did not feel 100 %. If we look back, he hopes to trust himself more. He says, “You don't need to know everything before you start,” he says. “Learn through work.”
He also believes in the power of relationships. “Your network is the safety network in your career. My son before you need it.”
Balance of Labor and Life
Employment is a fast -paced industry. The continuous need to fill the roles, meet the deadlines, and manage the client's overwhelming expectations. Leon has found that getting away is necessary to stay in focus.
He says: “When I feel burned, I go to skiing on the ice, the highest weights, or walk.” “It is re -seizing my mental and helps me to return more clearly.”
Family and travel are also large parts of his life. “Spending time with their loved ones reminds me of why I do what I do. The work is important, but it lives as well.”
Final ideas
Lyon Chang forms the future of employment – one rental, one conversation, and one connection at one time. His mixture of technical knowledge and human insight makes it prominent in its field.
While he takes his new role in Robert Haf, one thing remains as it is: his commitment to making employment more intelligent and more personal. “The best recruits do not fill the jobs,” he says. “They change life.”
