Why AI Won’t Fix Hiring - The 10 Minute Talent Rant

Talent Insights ·

2024/07/17

Another day, another AI tool that promises to change the world. But won’t. It’s not a big leap to think we’re at the peak of the AI hype cycle. But in recruitment – a sector already trailing the technology curve – what if it actually makes things worse? Who is going to train AI on a good interview process if there isn’t already a good interview process? What happens when an AI bot breaks down and no one knows how to fix it? And why would we think taking more human involvement out of an

Why Ghosting & Boasting Will Never Go Away - The 10...

2024/06/25

It’s amazing how so many companies tout how they’re great places to work, then ghost you after an interview. I love irony. Corporate arrogance and poor candidate experience seem to go hand-in-hand. They’re well-known issues. But no matter how much they're talked about, it seems like they only get worse over time. And it’s often ghosting victims (read: literally everyone) who perpetuate it when they’re in the hiring seat. Why is that? James Hornick and Jeff Smith will break down the psychology of

The 10 Minute Talent Rant, Episode 90 "Gen Z’s 12% Unemployment, Explained" It came as a shock to pretty much everyone that the unemployment rate among 20-29 year old college grads is hovering at 12%. While the economy in total is under 4%. The question is: Why? What caused such a disparity? And who is to blame? The answer? There’s no one cause. You can point your finger in pretty much every direction and be right. James Hornick and Jeff Smith will breakdown how it happened and what’s at

What do you call recruiting that doesn’t result in a hire? A complete waste of time. There’s no better (worse?) way to spin your wheels than focusing on things that don’t get you any closer to a hire. Because your metrics have you focusing on all the wrong things. Good metrics keep you on track. Bad metrics lead to unproductive busy work.

Lots of industry sectors – and geographies – that are thriving right now. Many of which are underserved by a lot of B2B businesses. Not just recruiting, but marketing, software, etc. Because everyone’s focused on the “cool” tech clients. Hirewell actually does work in these areas.

"What Makes Recruiting Partnerships Fail (or Prosper)?" - The 10 Minute Talent Rant is LIVE Stop me if you heard this one: “I had a bad experience with a recruiter.” Doesn’t matter if you were hiring for your company or looking for a job. Everyone’s experienced this. Recruiters themselves have heard it from new clients about their previous partnerships, too. A million times. But why? Why do so many people have bad experiences with recruiters? And what’s different then they actually go well?

Does it feel like tenures are getting shorter? The data says they are. Both over the long term and the last year. And that matches a lot of the conversations we’ve had with companies. It sure feels like more people are leaving roles in their first year. But why is that? Despite everyone’s best intentions to fix up their onboarding and employee engagement during “The Great Resignation” era, it doesn’t look like it stuck.

Social networks come and go. That includes LinkedIn. There’s an argument to be made that LinkedIn is more than that. It’s a user generated, worldwide corporate directory that serves as the source of truth for who’s who in business. More tactically, It’s the lifeblood of the sales and recruiting industries. But what happens if people simply stop updating their profiles? Maybe they’re covering gaps. Maybe they’ve been ‘green banner’ shamed. What purpose does LinkedIn really serve then? It’s a

The hiring market is improving, slowly but surely. It’s not going to the moon like Bitcoin, but it’ll get there. Hiring needs create urgency. Urgency creates shortcuts. And shortcuts create every bad stereotype people have about recruiting. What happens when scaling up becomes a hair-on-fire drill? And you didn’t spend your down time fine tuning your strategy and processes? Jeff Smith and James Hornick covered it in episode 83 of The 10 Minute Talent Rant, "Dumb Hiring Ideas Are Back, Baby!"

The tech layoffs aren’t over. Marketing budgets haven’t recovered. DEI programs are slashed. Might explain why we don’t hear anyone talk about employer brand anymore. It’s probably for the better: workers are skeptical. A lot of people got burned in the last 18 months and no one believes the old corporate jargon when they’re looking for their next role. Hiring isn’t dead, but the talent attraction playbook needs a reboot. Jeff Smith and James Hornick discuss what resonates with job seekers

Do Bonuses Buy Loyalty - The 10 Minute Talent Rant

It’s January. Which means we’re in the lame duck period for year end bonuses. Earned but not yet paid. With that comes complications. Some companies are bracing for post-bonus churn. Others are offering sign-on bonuses to jump the line and get the talent they need now. And of course, some companies were beat up so bad in 2023 that bonuses went out the window. There’s the Haves and the Have-Nots. Meanwhile, the real question: how effective is the yearly bonus model for retention anyway? Jeff

For most of Hirewell’s existence, internal recruiter positions were the #2 most commonly filled roles on a yearly basis. Right after software engineers. In 2023? Not even on the heat map. Almost no demand. And lots of A+ recruiters have struggled to find work. Why? Rising interest rates.

The hiring world is obsessed with candidate pipeline building. Sure, the top of the funnel is important. But success in hiring has always been about conversion. Getting the right candidates to say ‘yes.’ And nothing converts offers to acceptances like an A+ interview experience. Problem is: it’s really hard for your company to set itself apart when you’re doing 3 Zooms and an assessment like every other company.

The Disconnect Between Hiring and Retention - The 10...

2023/11/01

Hiring leaders want the best. People with strong skills who fit very specific skill needs. No one ever says they’ll hire someone who is “pretty good at a bunch of stuff.” Yet come layoff time, that’s who they prioritize retaining. Those who can take on the most workload. The old “do more with less.” High for specialization. Retain for breadth. Why is that? And can layoff decision-making teach us how we should change our hiring process? Jeff Smith and James Hornick discuss in the next The 10
