Everyone wanted recruiting to be automated, with artificial intelligence taking the reins and leaving recruiters behind in the past. But at the end of the day, people prefer people. That’s why people still dial zero for an operator when met with a robot on the other end of a phone call
What Can’t the Machine Do?
Recruiting is consistently inconsistent
- People tend to think that automation and augmented writing are the answer – that they will automatically make everything consistent
- That’s just not the case
- You create consistent recruiter performance through better communication
- It starts with us – learning and teaching each other how to speak to other humans
Value of Better Talent Communication
If recruiters know how to communicate effectively, positions will be filled quicker, and better candidates will be placed.
- When your recruiters are able to describe a role in a better job posting that sells, candidates will apply and recruiters will see that they are valued.
The Hiring Process Is an Emotional One
In a world where someone’s career impacts their day-to-day life on such a large scale, the hiring process can be an emotional one.
- You have to be able to communicate and adapt in real-time to be a great recruiter.
