I had a great convo with Anthony Onesto, currently the Chief People Officer at Suzy, about running talent acquisition with the same data-driven mindset that sales and marketing departments have. #recruiting #hiring #talentacquisition #startups #tech

A pitch should never be the same for two different candidates. Learning about what matters most to a candidate before diving into what your company has to offer is essential. #hiring #TalentAcquisition #recruitment

In a market downturn, companies need to keep core recruiting tech in place to ensure the process is preserved for a fast ramp in a market rebound. While hiring may be cyclical, investing in core recruiting tech shouldn't be. #hiring #talentacquisition #Recruiting #technology

Greenhouse Software's Co-founder and CEO, Daniel Chait, and I discussed how hiring needs to be a core competency for leaders. When hiring or promoting leaders internally, we need to look beyond their competency in their specialization. #hiring #Recruiting #TalentAcquisition

Excited to chat with Glassdoor's CEO, Christian Sutherland! It's important to share the vision and success stories throughout the interview process but we can't stop there. The best teams are filled with folks who are passionate about solving the company's biggest challenges.

Asking if employees are more productive in the office is asking the wrong question. The right question is, "Does the specific talent pool we are targeting have access to remote jobs? And if so, can we compete for the best people if we don't offer remote flexibility?"

Hiring is a team sport.

Junior executives communicate, “We need to hire faster.” Seasoned executives communicate, “How do we hire the best people?” Quality before speed 💯

Recruiting isn’t a segment of your business. It’s the core of your business.

Something that is underestimated: The true cost of a bad hire.

What people think, “A people-first culture is nothing more than offering a few perks, it doesn’t really matter.” What Talent executives know, “People are the core of all success in business.”

Talent acquisition leaders don’t deserve a seat at the leadership table. They earn it.
