Today’s Talent Acquisitions three legged stool:  

Sourcing, Recruiting and Selection: 

Technology has changed the way 90% of how Talent Acquisition is being done today in any size organization. Passive and active candidates are everywhere, the talent is out there we just need to find where they are and use the latest tools, tricks and technology to reel them in. 

How to find them – Sourcing: The “post and pray” technique just doesn’t work when you’re trying to find highly-skilled employees. Even conventional recruiting can fall short.  Effective sourcing utilizing all the tricks of technology is what separates the companies filling their positions with top talent today and into the future.

How to get them – Recruiting:  Is it best practice to keep up with the trends? The definition of “a trend” means that a significant group of firms have already implemented the practice. And that means that if you merely identify and copy current trends, by the time your firm implements them, you will have fallen behind the benchmark firms that would have continued to develop new approaches. What are the latest trends, are you behind the times? 

How to select them – Video Interviewing: Techniques have evolved as much as technology has changed.  Paper resumes are a thing of the past.  Phone screens are still deployed but are quickly being replaced with live or recorded video interviews.  Video technology has come a long way in that very short period of time and the usage has expanded out in to many aspects of daily HR life.
