Once again, Fistful of Talent has released their latest list of Talent Management Top 25 Blog Power Rankings. TalentMash was ranked 12th this time around, up from 22nd! My sincere thanks to the judges who ranked TalentMash after reviewing over 115 HR, Recruiting and Talent industry blogs!

Receiving this ranking means to me that first, someone is actually reading my blog (lol) and secondly it inspires me to continue writing content that will provide advice or entertainment (depending on what you think of it) to fellow Talent Management professionals. Lastly, it makes me proud to know that HR Professionals are seeking out relevant content to stay up to date on industry trends and to utilize the information for career development.
The full list is below. I am truly honored to be among these talented industry experts. My Top 3 personal favorites that I recommend you check out include:
