THE ROLE OF LINKEDIN IN MODERN RECRUITING STRATEGIES Remember the days of endless cold call? Modern recruiting has ditched the outdated playbook for a dynamic new strategy. And the secret weapon? It's not hidden in a desk drawer it's emblazoned in a bold blue banner LINKEDIN. This platform has transformed the recruitment landscape, offering a treasure trove of qualified talent and a direct line to their aspirations. So, ditch the outdated methods and get ready to unlock the true power of LinkedIn recruiting. LinkedIn allows recruiters to move beyond generic job postings and target candidates with laser focus. By leveraging its sophisticated search features, recruiters can pinpoint individuals with the exact skills, experience, and even company history that perfectly aligns with their open positions. LinkedIn profiles offer a window into a candidate's full potential. Recruiters can delve deeper than a traditional resume, gleaning insights from recommendations, project descriptions, and even a candidate's content creation history. The power of LinkedIn goes beyond simply filling vacancies. It fosters genuine connections between recruiters and potential candidates. By engaging with profiles, commenting on posts, and sending personalized messages, recruiters can build rapport and position their company as a desirable employer. A company's LinkedIn profile is no longer an afterthought. It's a powerful tool for employer branding. By showcasing company culture, employee success stories, and thought leadership content, recruiters can attract high-caliber candidates who resonate with the company's mission and values. In essence, LinkedIn has redefined the role of recruiting in the modern era. By embracing its capabilities, recruiters can move beyond the limitations of traditional methods and build a robust talent pipeline, attract exceptional candidates, and ultimately, shape the future of their organization's success. 🎥:Tech is the new black

I’ve been interviewing TA leaders and CPOs to understand their views on how AI might impact the way they staff their teams. So far my convos have illuminated a nuanced take on AI in TA: 🤔 There’s a mix of intrigue and skepticism. Most skepticism seems directed at the feasibility/viability of the technology in practice (“does it actually work?” vs reluctance about the idea in principle). 👀 There’s a sense of cautious optimism, hinging on whether the tech can handle human-needed edge cases, like an RC handling a last-minute reschedule or a complex interaction with an interviewer or EA. 🤖 While automation promises cost savings and efficiency, change management and cultural resistance are hurdles to prioritizing this “today” (if #2 were solved). 💰 Across the board, leaders are open to automation if it provides a significant cost advantage (e.g., cutting costs by “50-60%” compared to human headcount). Most view this level of savings to outweigh the cognitive and cultural costs of implementation. 🌱 There’s a desire to evolve admin-heavy roles (like RCs and sourcers) into more strategic or specialized positions like recruiting operations or face-to-face recruiting. I’m in research mode for the next few months and want to spend more time sharing my learnings on LI. Like or comment if you find info like helpful - I can use the motivation to make it a habit :)

What kind of behavior does the 'no win, no fee' payment model of contingency recruiting incentivize? Quantity over quality? Rather than jeopardize the fee, does it make sense to withhold potentially negative information about candidates? Maybe. The contingency model shifts the risk from the hiring organization to the recruiting firm. This makes it more palatable, but often comes at a price. There is some loss of control, lose of long term accountability, and loss of added value beyond the placement (like improving the process). This isn't always the case! But I'd argue it's one thing that stinks up the recruiting industry. We at www.hitolabs.com avoid contingency. We want to paid for our work, we want to do the right things, spend time to treat candidates right, and improve the process. It's much harder to get business - and asks clients for more attention, and more trust. I think it's worth it. #ContingencyRecruiting #RecruitingModel
