Finding Candidates is the Easy Part - The 10 Minute...

Talent Insights ·

2024/12/18

I don't know about you, but I'm feeling pretty good about 2025. Hirewell closed out the year on a hot streak. Best 4 month stretch in 2 years. 21 new solutions clients signed since May 1. And more chatter about increased hiring from both VC-backed start ups and traditional industries alike. So if hiring’s on the upswing, what new challenge will take its place? Getting candidates to say yes and sticking around, of course! Every delayed search, declined offer, quick exit, and unexpected resignation

2024/12/04

Be careful what you wish for. We’ve long said recruitment technology is comically behind the times. (Feel free to go way back and watch episode 6, "Why Does HR Technology Suck?") Historically, it’s the last place for new innovation when there’s more money to be made creating sales or marketing tech. But if you work in recruiting and you looked at your inbox over the last year, you probably noticed the steady increase in spam pitches. New RecruitTech is popping up left and right. Maybe AI made it

Inbound Recruiting Is Broken - The 10 Minute Talent Rant

Talent Insights ·

2024/10/16

More is not always better. And the killer combo of Easy Apply buttons and 1 click AI resume customization pushed inbound applications to the max. Here’s the harsh reality: we’re quickly approaching the point where inbound applies are so far off the mark – and in such high quality – that it’s easier to fill openings by not posting any jobs at all. Outbound “headhunting” is becoming less time consuming than people throwing their hat in the ring. It might seem crazy. But James Hornick and Jeff

The title for this one says it all. But if you read it too fast, you may have missed the word “analysis.” Trashing employment data is a national pastime for people who follow the labor markets. But that’s an easy thing to do…if you don’t understand what it’s telling you. Or rather, when someone else’s poor analysis led you astray.

Every year I keep hoping some new recruitment tech will come along and save us. And every year I’m disappointed. Sure, a lot of cool stuff has come out. But nothing seems to knock LinkedIn (or in other sectors, Indeed) off its pedestal. The new-new is always “in addition to” not “instead of” the incumbents. Why is that? James Hornick and Jeff Smith do a deep dive on what it will take for a fundamental shift in recruitment tech in episode 96 of The 10 Minute Talent Rant, "Why LinkedIn & Indeed

A client of ours recently had a leadership level finance & accounting search that got over 600 inbound applicants. That’s not the shocking part. Anyone who works in recruiting has this happen on a fairly regular basis. The shocking part: 2/3 of them were actually good. Skill sets were all in the ballpark. This wasn't a “Easy Apply button gone wrong” situation. And we’re talking to more and more companies in this situation. Which raises the question: who’s going to screen all these candidates

We humans love to oversimplify things into binary choices. Dogs vs cats. Drake vs Kendrick. Democrats vs Republicans. And an “Employer’s Market” vs a “Job Seeker’s Market.” In reality, we’re never fully in one or the other. Prevailing sentiment might lead you to believe employer’s have the upper hand right now…except unemployment is 4.1% and counter offers are on the rise. James Hornick and Jeff Smith sound off on how employment markets are more complex than an on/off switch in episode 93 of
