Green Key’s Senior Partner Brian Blake and Partner Jason Kien, along with leaders of the Accounting and Finance teams, Andrew List, Lauren Rush, and Lauries Lames attended the annual Hedgeweek Awards ceremony to accept the award for “Best Executive Search Firm” of 2023. The exclusive ceremony and networking event was held at The Penn Club, in New York, on October 26th.

Leaders of the Accounting and Finance practice area were invited to attend the ceremony due to the team’s years of work and extensive experience in accounting and finance recruiting.

“In our nearly 20 years as a firm, we continually strive to set ourselves apart by providing the best service to our clients through providing top talent and utilizing cutting-edge technology,” said Brian Blake. “We are honored to be recognized by Hedgeweek for our service in the industry.”

To determine the best executive search firm as well as the other awards, Hedgeweek partnered with Bloomberg to survey more than 500 fund managers and other key industry participants. Voting for the awards took place via a poll that was sent out to the entire Hedgeweek userbase.

Hedgeweek Awards are based on two categories: Fund Manager Winners and Service Provider Winners. Green Key fell within the Service Provider Winners. Are you searching for top talent? Contact us to help you with your hiring needs!

Can LinkedIn’s New Games Boost Your Networking Skills?

LinkedIn, the professional networking giant with over 1 billion users, has consistently innovated to enhance user engagement and utility. Recently, it introduced a less traditional yet impactful feature: LinkedIn games. These games aim not only to entertain, but to foster professional growth and networking on the site.

The Games

LinkedIn’s game offerings include three NYT-style games:

Pinpoint: In this game, players guess the category based on provided clues. The goal is to identify the category using as few clues as possible.

Crossclimb: Crossclimb combines trivia questions with word placement challenges. Players must find four-letter answers to the clues and rearrange them so that each answer differs by only one letter from the one above and below.

Queens: Similar to Sudoku, Queens involves placing crowns correctly. It requires attention to multiple elements and can evoke both love and frustration due to its trial-and-error nature.

Accessing the Games

Wondering how to access these brain-teasing games? According to a LinkedIn FAQ, you can find them through various channels:

Games Hub
Search for Games using the LinkedIn Search bar
My Network Page
Today’s Games section under LinkedIn News (Desktop only)
Side Panel in the LinkedIn mobile app

LinkedIn’s Perspective

A spokesperson for LinkedIn told TechCrunch, “We’re playing with adding puzzle-based games within the LinkedIn experience to unlock a bit of fun, deepen relationships, and hopefully spark the opportunity for conversations…”.

While LinkedIn’s games may seem like a departure from the platform’s professional focus, they offer a unique way to engage with your network. As you play, consider how these puzzles can enhance your cognitive skills, creativity, and ability to think critically—all valuable traits in the professional world. So go ahead, solve a crossword, or place those virtual crowns strategically. Who knows? It might just lead to a meaningful conversation or a new professional connection!
