Listen Later

On Take the Stage, presented by Haley Marketing, we bring you the BEST speakers, coaches, trainers, and strategic partners from across the staffing and recruiting industry every other week. More than your standard interview, each conversation is built off of a specific session or topic these industry thought leaders bring to conferences and audiences around the country.


KEY MOMENTS
  • Technology has made recruiters lazy and caused them to rely too heavily on job boards and technology for candidate sourcing.
  • Recruiters need to balance using technology as a tool and maintaining the human element of recruiting.
  • The fundamentals of a great recruiter include building relationships, effective communication, curiosity, and a focus on delivering what candidates and clients want.
  • Recruiters should plan their work and work their plan, setting goals and metrics to track their progress.
  • The hunt and target recruiting are still essential skills for recruiters.
  • Technology can be used to automate administrative tasks and enhance communication, but the human touch is still crucial in engaging with candidates.
  • Recruiters should be authentic and focus on building relationships rather than just making transactions.
  • Planning, time management, and self-discipline are key to success in recruiting.
  • The industry has become too reliant on technology and needs to get back to the art of the hunt.
