HireDesk Shares Recruiting Best Practices With The Technology Association of Georgia´s Recruiting S
Posted by Ariel Killen
HireDesk Chairman, Dr. David Jones, delivers thought leadership on how new recruiting automation, content, and metrics can produce a competitive advantage
HireDesk a division of Talent Technology Corporation and an award-winning provider of on-demand talent acquisition and retention solutions delivered the keynote address to the membership of the Recruiting Society of the Technology Association of Georgia. In the address, Dr. David Jones discussed new ways to leverage today´s recruiting technology to:
1. Source and attract candidates
2. Evaluate and identify the best candidates
3. Reduce legal compliance risk in hiring
4. Track “what works” in retaining new talent
During the address to dozens of recruiting and technology leaders from the Atlanta area, Dr. Jones described how three movements are changing the way both internal and external recruiters support their client organizations. First, Jones described how software is automating key stages in the recruiting process, both helping and challenging recruiters who are increasingly pressured to find and deliver candidates to hiring managers quickly and efficiently.
Jones discussed how the integration of candidate assessment and evaluation tools into these automated solutions is offering a clear value-add to recruiters on both sides of the vendor-company relationship. Finally, Jones noted how increased use of pay-off metrics, enabled by automation, is helping recruiters provide their clients and employers with objective measures of their effectiveness - a move that he views as a real entry of “Six Sigma thinking” into the practice of talent acquisition.
Jones concluded the address by describing how various sub-specialties in the recruiting and HR industry - sourcing, assessment, on-boarding, retention management, and automation - are all converging. He described how progressive recruiting firms and corporate HR departments are developing “total solution” approaches to talent acquisition and retention.
In Dr. Jones’ view, this already has begun to change the face of recruiting, leading to noteworthy consolidation of the industry. A case in point - the emergence of “total solution-oriented” recruitment process outsourcing companies (RPOs).
“It was great to have Dr. Jones and HireDesk present to our membership,” said Gary Shaar, Chairman of Programs for the Technology Association of Georgia´s Recruiting Society. “The information shared is not only relevant but presents a model upon which human resource professionals across the spectrum can develop and implement best practices,” continued Shaar.
