Set Yourself Up for Success in the Talent Game

Welcome back to another episode of The Jackie Serviss Show! Today, I’m sharing my thoughts on how to level up your talent acquisition game and move beyond the outdated “post and pray” approach. If you’re planning to hire or build your team in 2025, this episode is for you.

Here’s what I cover in this episode:

• Why Job Descriptions Aren’t Enough: While it’s important to create accurate job descriptions, simply posting them and waiting for the right candidate isn’t a winning strategy.
• Post and Pray Doesn’t Work: I explain why depending on job boards like Indeed or ZipRecruiter often falls short when it comes to attracting top talent.
• The Power of Proactive Sourcing: I share how you can take a more active approach to recruiting by sourcing, reaching out, and telling a compelling story about your company and the role.
• Human Connection is Everything: While automation has its place, it’s the human connection that truly drives successful talent acquisition. I talk about how to engage with candidates on a personal level.
• Creating a Holistic Strategy: I break down how to diversify your attraction tactics, using tools like LinkedIn, email campaigns, and direct invitations to stand out in a crowded talent market.
• Think Like a Pro: Inspired by professional sports, I explain why taking a proactive, scouting approach to talent acquisition is the key to finding the best candidates before you need them.

After 20+ years in the talent industry, I’m passionate about helping companies find the right people to unlock their next level of growth. In this episode, I share actionable advice to help you rethink your hiring strategy and set yourself up for success in 2025.

I hope this episode inspires you to take a more proactive approach to hiring and attract the talent your business deserves. Let’s go pro and make 2025 the year you find your dream team! _________________________________________________________________________
