Join the Gem discussion as we explore best practices, benchmarks, recommendations, conversations, trends (and more!) for best-in-class talent acquisition teams.

These days, moving candidates through the hiring process can often feel like trying to carry water in your hands. You’ve built a good hiring pipeline, but when you reach the final stage, somehow the majority of these candidates have slipped through your fingers.

Candidate drop-off takes a financial toll on the organization and an emotional toll on those involved in the hiring process, as sourcing and recruiting efforts have already been invested in every candidate who exits your process. So how should you identify and resolve your candidate drop-off points?

Watch this webinar recording from August 2nd as the Talent Board president Kevin Grossman moderates an informative discussion between Leigh Miller, Senior Customer Talent Advisor at Gem and David Delaney, Sr. Manager of Recruiting at Cockroach Labs, sharing their tips and strategies to resolve candidate drop-off points and get better hiring results. You’ll learn:
- Painless ways and tools to manage candidates and track drop-off points
- What major candidate drop-off points are, and what they mean for recruiting teams
- How to improve your recruiting process to deliver a great candidate experience

How to Identify and Fix Your Candidate Drop-off Points

It is without doubt an incredibly competitive recruitment landscape. One that requires new, different, and proactive strategies to attract top talent. This means HR and talent acquisition functions have to be on their game to get the needed talent results. Rather than relying on inbound applications and spray-and-pray outreach tactics, best-in-class organizations are building a sourcing function that allows for personalization and relationship-building at scale.

To understand how to pivot towards this sourcing-inclusive model of recruitment, and where efficiency and technology play their role, Kate Graham, Head of Content Labs and Insights at UNLEASH is joined by Wesley Gilbert, Global Head of Talent Acquisition at On, and Paul Lesser, Former SVP Human Resources at Fidelity and Ellen Protsyk, Senior Manager Technical Recruiting at Warby Parker to shed light on how to implement a sourcing model, what different mechanisms it needs, and what skillsets it relies upon.

● Understand the holistic benefits that sourcing can bring, such as better diversity and quality of candidates.
● Get the inside track on how to build sourcing capability in your recruitment team even if you are resource-lite.
● Learn what good sourcing practice looks like

Talent attraction, talent retention, employer branding, diversity, and employee experience are important points of focus for most talent acquisition teams, however these initiatives often run adjacent to each other rather than within a coordinated framework. 

Many teams are realizing that by unifying efforts across multiple activities, the sum is nearly always greater than the parts. This is especially true when it comes to talent acquisition, diversity, and branding.

Watch this webinar as Jacquese Brown, Atiba Page, Weston Fillman, and Jessica Jolley discuss the importance of synergizing efforts between TA, diversity, and branding, and how when goals in these areas are clearly and realistically defined, the results can exceed what the C-suite ever thought was possible.

Key discussion points of this webinar will be:

- Defining diversity and branding goals
- Investing beyond the role and funding resources
- Speaking the language of business
- Producing results that exceed expectations

The Role of TA in Overarching Diversity and Branding Strategies

The War for Talent. The Great Resignation. The Big Quit. No matter which buzzwords you use, companies of all sizes around the world are struggling to fill critical roles. With more open jobs than candidates available to hire, it comes down to choice. How can you break through the noise so the talent you need will choose you over a competitor?

Watch this webinar, hosted by SmartRecruiters and Gem,  where we tackle this challenge head-on. Not only will we discuss actionable tips and strategies to help you attract the talent you need, we’ll also share specific tactics to engage talent throughout the recruiting funnel.

How to Attract & Engage Top Talent at Scale

Recruiting is at a remarkable inflection point. Despite all the time and effort companies invest in sourcing, employer branding, and technologies, 74% of recruiting teams underperform, according to a recent research report by Josh Bersin.

The human part of the process - a good relationship – has become more important than ever. The proliferation of recruiting analytics and automation empowers TA teams to adopt and optimize a relationship-based recruiting approach. When a good talent engagement strategy is in place, we see great relationships built, increased offer-accept rates, and higher-quality hires.

Watch this fireside chat with Richard Cho and Kevin Wheeler to learn why and how recruiting teams should shift to relationship-based recruiting to deliver against the increased hiring demands and changing landscape.

You’ll learn:
- Why relationship-based recruiting is the way of the future
- How it will affect your funnel conversion, diversity hiring, and capacity planning
- What you should consider in building a winning talent engagement strategy

Winning Top Talent with Strategic, Relationship-Based Recruiting

Too many teams approach hiring as if looking for a needle in a haystack, with a rigid vision of the ‘ideal’ candidate and incentives that reward filling a single role or narrow set of roles. For rapidly growing companies, this approach is shortsighted and won’t support hiring at scale.

Join Hannah Pritchett, VP of Talent at Binti, and Abigail Chambley, Director of Talent Acquisition at Mission, as they share how to approach talent acquisition from a holistic perspective and innovate recruiting strategies to build quality talent pipelines and hire at scale.  

Key takeaways will include:

- Implementing scalable recruiting strategies that are comprehensive, structured, and innovative 
- Assessing tech stacks and understanding where to make improvements
- Cultivating robust talent pipelines that deliver results

Hiring at Scale – Proven Strategies for Cultivating Robust Talent Pipelines

Many prospective hires need more time to develop, so in a historically competitive marketplace, employers need to take a long view. What are the best ways to identify, guide, and build relationships with these prospects? What kinds of structured approaches and predictive analytics will strengthen the process? And how can employers convey a durable value proposition so that prospects will be mindful of it over the course of the talent lifecycle?

Nurturing the Candidates With Potential in Your Talent Pipeline

Enterprise sourcing functions vary greatly across organizations. For some companies, their sourcing teams are bogged down by their own disorganized processes and they move as if they are stuck in the mud; for other companies, their sourcing teams move dexterously and operate like well-oiled machines. 

If your team is looking to improve their enterprise sourcing capabilities, then you won’t want to miss this webinar. 

Watch this webinar as Brandy F. Blount, April Leah Holcomb, and Keri Dann, discuss the winning strategies that make the best sourcing teams. Key takeaways will include:

Strategic Enterprise Sourcing 101

In today’s modern organizations, every department runs on data, and HR is no exception. HR and TA leaders need to take a data-driven approach to make key decisions for their business. 

To prove value and gain executive buy-in for their initiatives, HR needs to rely on company data and measure the impact of their recruitment, retention, and DE&I strategies.

In this webinar, you’ll learn:
- Key metrics when it comes to measuring recruitment, retention, and DE&I
- Leveraging data and people analytics to gain executive buy-in for your HR and recruitment strategy

How to Build a Data-Driven HR & Recruitment Strategy

Gallup defines “inclusion” as “a cultural and environmental feeling of belonging”. This feeling of belonging influences whether individuals feel valued, respected, accepted, and encouraged to bring their unique characteristics to the workplace. Inclusion impacts how much (or how little) individuals feel they can bring their whole selves, ideas, and experiences to work. If we want individuals in our companies to know they belong, we must figure out how to champion inclusion and reduce exclusive practices.

Watch this panel, brought to you by Gem and Checkr, and learn the best practices for building inclusive teams. You will hear from the experts on why belonging is so fundamental to healthy workplace culture and what practical strategies you can establish in your workplace to initiate changes for the better.

Our panel of speakers covers:
- The impact belonging has on retention, performance, and productivity
- Ways to identify and uproot exclusive practices that negatively impact individuals
- How allyship and mentorship promote belonging
- Ways to ask for feedback from employees to uncover how they feel about company culture
- Ideas on how to build programming and events that promote inclusion
