Talent Acquisition Leaders Podcast - Recruiting, Staffing, Human Resources

Preparing for the Future with Fang Xu of A+E Networks


Listen Later

On this episode of the Talent Acquisitions Leaders podcast, host Ryan Dull is joined by Fang Xu, Head of Talent Acquisition and Head of Diversity at A+E Networks.

The last several years have created massive transformations in what a typical work environment looks like. This, in turn, has changed the way talent managers have had to think about hiring practices and team structure.

Fang has been right in the middle of that transition, beginning her work at A+E Networks from a remote position, and watching her pool of candidates grow as her organization expanded its area of operations because of the new opportunities for remote work.

For Fang, all of these changes are an opportunity for the industry to evolve. Rather than simply adapting to the new normal, Fang thinks talent acquisition leaders should take the pandemic as a lesson in preparing for the unexpected. It’s not just about overcoming current challenges but creating an environment where flexibility and adaptability are themselves the new normal.

To continue to meet the needs of their organization and their team in an ever more volatile market, talent acquisition leaders have to embrace the unexpected.

    Sagemark HR can help you:

    ✔ Improve your talent practices and make better, more informed people decisions.

    After 20+ years of experience leading Recruiting and Talent Acquisition across a wide variety of industries, I've seen enough hires (over 100,000 to date) to know that hiring decisions truly can make or break an organization.

    ✔ Identify opportunities to not only improve your talent practices, but also deliver tangible business results.

    We understand every organization is different, and there’s no one-size-fits-all magic solution. So we listen first and identify the gaps and sticking points in your current process before ever recommending a solution.

    ✔ Bridge the gap from “traditional” to modern recruiting, without the painful learning curve.

    We believe recruiting, talent, and HR technology is a deep well of untapped business potential, and our mission is to help you identify and implement those hiring tools in a way that works for you.
