Recruitment is chaos. Here's how I'd wrangle it: Today's mini-podcast is with a fellow recruiter! Former agency recruiter behind 100s of hires. Dan Hawkins Senior TA Partner at Build a Rocket Boy Reflection after chaos is key. Recruitment by definition can't be perfect. We're working with humans after all. That's what makes it fun. Dan's 100s of hires = 100s of opportunities to reflect: - Alleviating concerns earlier in the process. - Being proactive in seeking feedback. - Revamping your interview style. No one will reflect for you. - Could we have replied sooner? - Could we have interviewed better? - Could we have talked compensation earlier? After the inevitable challenge. Huddle with colleagues on a video call. ESPECIALLY in a remote setting. Thank you Dan for the punchy podcast! PS: Should recruiters text after work hours? ____________________ 𝗜 𝗵𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗴𝗮𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘀𝘁𝘂𝗱𝗶𝗼𝘀 𝗼𝗻 𝗽𝗼𝗱𝗰𝗮𝘀𝘁𝘀. 𝗛𝗶𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝗲𝗹𝗹 🔔➜ Harry Phokou 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗶𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁𝘀.

Listening to The Chad & Cheese Podcast with Rebecca Carr from Smartrecruiters made me think about one thing ATS platforms do much better than job boards - APIs. ATS platforms get much bad press in the industry. Most are bad at SEO; others excel at creating the worst UX for applicants. All of these are true. However, the one thing that most of the new ATS platforms get and do very well is APIs. In this interview, Rebecca Carr says that the SmartRecruiters platform has a goal of reaching a rate of 80-90% of public APIs, up from 30-40%. The motivation behind this is that the labor market is changing, and flexible employment and gig jobs require a more open approach to hiring. I like this strategy, and as a job board industry, we should strive to build more APIs - for profile access, job advertising, and matching. APIs will allow job boards to evolve their business models and be more reactive to generative AI and the changes coming with this. It is a great interview, full of a lot of strategic insights, so give it a listen: https://lnkd.in/dGYH2xeb

People are the most important asset in your business. But when we go about finding the right people to help us grow our businesses, we have very little strategy to fall back on. With so much to learn and do as #BusinessOwners, who has the time to master the art of hiring well? Not me and not you. But we don’t have to. My podcast wonderful co-host, Kristy-Lee Billett, happens to be an expert in this area, and she has brought in a guest who’s a hiring strategist – Deb Houston from Phlox Consulting Pty Ltd. For this first part of the conversation, Kristy-Lee and Deb talk about the 3 biggest hiring mistakes they see in their work all the time, and how to tackle them, so you approach your next hire much more informed. This is such a useful conversation to hear because there's so much more to #hiring and #recruiting than people often think. Yes, it’s getting the right person to do the job, but there’s also a really important reputation aspect, particularly for small businesses, that is not to be dismissed. Tune in to listen to the first part of this important conversation.

What does your ideal role look like? 🤔 Defining this was one of the many things Abigail Dixon FCIM/ICF and I discussed when I joined her on The Whole Marketer podcast this week. With so much inconsistency in marketing job titles, salary expectations and org structures we talked about delving into the responsibilities of the role itself to help plan your next move. What do you enjoy? How do you want to spend your time? What gives your energy? How do you play on your strengths as well as identify areas to support your career development? In addition we discuss what hiring managers can do to ensure their hiring processes attract great talent. Taking advice from Stefanie Sword-Williams FRSA (she/her) to “f*ck being humble” I am *really* proud of this episode. It distills a year’s worth of dissecting job desciriptions, advocating for improved hiring processes and also discusses the maturity of social media roles specifically, which is a topic close to my heart. 🎙 Link to the episode in the comments. Have a listen, do let us know your feedback if you know someone who may enjoy the listen then please do share with them. 👋 Hi, if you’re new, I’m Lauren: a social consultant with a love of working with brands to develop team structures, roles and processes to best deliver great work. #marketing #careeradvice
