In todays Short Talk episode Judith Germain speaks to Benjamin Morone about global recruitment trends and tech use in hiring. Benjamin provides advice on how companies can research and evaluate different countries/regions for remote hiring, including using employer-of-record services. He also recommends conducting a time audit to determine which tasks to keep in-house versus delegate.
Key Takeaways
- Remote work surge post-COVID has significantly impacted global recruitment, especially for smaller businesses
- AI in recruitment has limitations; human touch remains crucial for candidate evaluation
- Latin America and Eastern Europe are key talent markets due to time zone advantages and skill sets
- Company culture and clear goals are more critical for talent retention than hiring location
In this conversation Benjamin discusses the extensive use of technology in his recruitment work, including various platforms and tools. He shares his experience trying to build an AI-based candidate screening tool, but found it had limitations in accurately evaluating candidates' skills.
