The Talent Economy

What Do You Mean by Strategic Recruiting Anyway?

Recruiting has clearly evolved over the last several years.  Back in the day, I could have asked any recruiter what their goal was and they likely would have replied with a number of hires per month.  Back then it was all about the numbers.  The role of the recruiter was to wait with their catcher’s mitt in hand for the next requisition to pop open so they could push it through the process and get a hire.  The objective: get as many hires as you can in a month with the illusive “quality of hire” a mystery to most.  Fast forward to the economic crisis where companies began tightening their belts and new philosophies like “fewer bigger bets” suddenly emerged.  Recruiting will have to change with the times or become irrelevant. 

What’s Your Social Recruitment Strategy?

On the surface, many of the technologies that could be classified as “social networks” or that soon-to-be-very-tired moniker “Web 2.0” might appear to be tactical in nature in their talent acquisition applications. Someone tweets, someone else follows, and hopefully the follower clicks through to whatever website or job posting is referenced. A fan page is created for a company on Facebook, people choose to “become a fan”, and again, hopefully they click through to websites and job postings that are referenced. If that’s all your organization is doing, then perhaps these really are simply tactical tools. They might even be working for you!

Transform Your Talent, Part 2 (or, Why Live Webcasts Are Not Like the Oscars)

Here at the Human Capital Institute we do a LOT of live webcasts-- nearly 300 a year. Why is that a problem? Because, unlike the Oscars, we have a structured amount of "live air" time-- and some of the great discussions that happen during CHCE programming get cut shortand our presenters can't answer all your questions. Not today! Last week we had a great webcast underwritten by Sibson Consulting titled: Transform Your Talent Management Capability Through Effective Strategic Workforce Planning: A Case Study.  We had nearly 20 questions come in that we didn't have time to answer, but our presenters Jan John of The Regence Group and Mike Norman of Sibson took some time to answer them here:
