Streamlining the Recruiting Process with Tom Atkinson of HSS

On this episode of the Talent Acquisition Leaders podcast, Tom Atkinson, Senior Director, Talent Acquisition at Hospital for Special Surgery, joins host Ryan Dull to talk about his experience as a TA leader at HSS, the challenges he faces on a daily basis, and how he and his team have worked through those challenges.

HSS has a staff of over 5,000 and is still growing. They perform more than 30,000 surgeries per year, have 50 operating rooms working live at any one time, have 20 active research labs, and they have been ranked as the number one orthopedic care facility in the nation for 12 years running.

When the pandemic hit, Tom and his team had to move their recruiting and hiring process online quickly, while maintaining the best practices that candidates expect from one of the most desirable companies to work for in the industry.

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.

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