It has been a volatile year in the tech industry and talent acquisition teams have been hit particularly hard across the board. Many recruiters searching for their next position are wondering what is the next best move? Are some companies or positions “safer” than others? Our panelists offer perspectives on what it is like to work for companies of all shapes and sizes, the benefits of each, and what “safe” may look like moving forward.

We’ll also discuss:

• The skills needed by recruiters in different types of environments, 

• How to position yourself and your experience to enter new types of companies, and 

• How to really figure out what you’re getting yourself into when you consider a new recruiting position.

Performance management is one of the trickiest responsibilities a manager has on their plate. In the world of talent acquisition, it can be even more difficult because the work of a recruiter is heavily influenced by outside forces - unpredictable candidates, indecisive hiring managers, cautious finance teams, and uncertain macroeconomic conditions to name a few. How much of a recruiter’s performance is truly in their control? And how much isn’t? 

During this webinar, we will discuss how different talent acquisition leaders: 

• Use both qualitative and quantitative measures to understand performance, 

• Leverage goals, KPIs, and/or OKRs to set expectations and manage toward them, and 

• Factor in external forces when managing recruiters and sourcers.
