  • Candidates start to care about your employer brand later than you think

    Candidates start to care about your employer brand later than you think
    Nov 28 2022
    Bill Boorman calls himself a recovering recruiter. He has 40 years of experience in the industry, is strategic consultant to a number of talent acquisition technology companies, and was the founder of the Tru unconferences. Employers may be surprised at some of what Bill has to say, including that the process of hiring people -- high volume or not -- is remarkably similar around the world but with some local nuances. Even more surprising, however, is the discussion on how unimportant an employer's brand is to a candidate deciding what jobs to apply to, yet that doesn't mean that the brand is unimportant. It is important, but not until much later in the hiring process than many employers have been led to believe.

    AI: Are its pros enough to overcome its cons?
    Oct 24 2022
    Many call themselves thought leaders and are anything but. Others are called thought leaders and justiably so. Today's guest, John Sumser of HR Examiner, falls squarely into the second group as one of the most prominent and respected thought leaders when it comes to human resource technology, including the use of recruiting automation by many of the world's largest employers. John makes it clear that he is a fan of technology, yet he also doesn't pull any punches when it comes to identifying how some employers use software in a way that creates great legal, financial, and ethical risks. This episode is a don't miss for those who are currently or considering the use of tools that leverage artificial intelligence as John lays out not just the problems with using AI to screen and select candidates, but also how it can be well used to assist in that process.

  • When and How to Use Online Assessments

    When and How to Use Online Assessments
    Sep 13 2022
    Caitlin MacGregor, the Co-Founder and CEO of Plum, joins the High Volume Hiring Podcast to talk assessments. With host Steven Rothberg of College Recruiter, Caitlin distinguishes between old-style assessments like DISC and Myers-Briggs and modern assessments that use science to accurately predict the productivity of a candidate if hired into a specific role with a specific organization. Organizations large and small, including those hiring at scale, are discovering that scientifically valid assessments allow them to efficiently and effectively broaden their applicant pool to include candidates they and their competitors may never have considered if all they had to go on was a resume. The result is increased time-to-hire, increased diversity, increased productivity, and reduced cost.
