On this episode of the Talent Acquisition Leaders podcast, host Ryan Dull welcomes Jon Finch, SVP of Talent at Milwaukee Tool, a tool manufacturing company that has invested heavily in technology and innovation across its power tool and hand tool businesses.

Jon boasts a lengthy career at the company, starting more than 20 years ago as a sales rep calling on hardware stores and lumberyards in four states. After taking on several different sales roles, he worked his way into recruiting sales and marketing hires. He took on his talent acquisition position in the fall of 2020.

Having such a diverse career path has helped Jon approach TA with a well-rounded business perspective. When he took over, he instinctively knew he needed to look at the available technology to maximize efficiency in hiring and to track important business metrics.

Having the right tech stack in place allows him to manage growth in a realistic way, based on those business metrics. This approach allows him to give other areas of the business realistic numbers and timelines so that everyone’s expectations are realistic and attainable.

Having the right technology in place is critical for success today.
