Happy Thanksgiving to all of our customers, partners, and colleagues. We hope you have a wonderful time off celebrating with family and friends??????

"It seems that everywhere you turn, someone is talking about AI in talent acquisition. Whether it’s a LinkedIn post, a thought leadership piece, an industry conference, or in casual conversation, AI is everywhere. At a recent summit, we asked a room full of customers how many people were sick of hearing about it and looked out onto a room of raised hands. Despite the fatigue, the importance of automation in improving candidate experience and engagement, recruiter efficiency cannot be overstated. Additionally, automation has a significant impact on brand and reputation cannot be overstated." So, how can we narrow our arrpoach to avoid AI fatigue? Read more here: https://hubs.la/Q02ZnxMQ0

Direct sourcing isn't a new concept, but the way organizations go about it have changed. Direct sourcing platforms "should integrate into your existing talent strategies to simplify the process through automation, talent marketing, branding, and building dynamic talent communities. For organizations, this means an improved talent experience (translating to higher retention, referrals, and redeployment), quicker time to hire at a lower cost, and efficiencies at scale." If you want to learn more about direct sourcing through WorkLLama, reach out to a LLama today!

"Companies taking a total talent approach, one that not only strategically hires all types of talent—be it full-time, freelancer, contractor, SOW-based workers, and independent consultants—but ensures the experience (culture, brand, fit) is consistent regardless of worker type will likely come out on top. What’s more, how you seamlessly bring them into your organization could be the difference between hiring a future brand ambassador (one that may come back into your organization in many forms, i.e., as a full-time worker and then as a freelancer) and who will refer similarly-skilled individuals to you."

Looking to get rid of a tech stack that doesn’t communicate, doesn’t integrate, and doesn’t allow you to scale? If you’re using multiple technologies for CRM, ATS, analytics dashboards, talent marketing and referral platforms, chatbots and messaging platforms, you’re probably ready for an integrated platform that does it all (and costs significantly less than you’re spending now). That's where WorkLLama comes in! Want to learn more? Schedule a demo here: https://hubs.la/Q02YJQ_q0

We're thrilled to share we won two TALiNT Partners TIARA Talent Tech Star Awards last night -- the Recruitment Marketing Solution of the Year and the Candidate Experience Solution of the Year ?? ?? Our mission is to connect people to meaningful work, and these awards solidify our continued commitment to doing so.

Thanks to TALiNT Partners and Ray E. Culver, CCWP for the opportunity to be on the panel: The Candidate Experience alongside Shalon Travis, Brandi Ferguson, and Rhea Moss. We know the importance of a solid candidate experience, its impact to a company's brand and reputation in the market, and an organization's ability to attract top talent in the future. We also loved the panel: What will shape the TA agenda in 2025. Lots of valuable insight and discussion about future technology, AI, and talent trends happening in #talentacquisition. We appreciate learning from David Bach, Penny Burnett, Koye Adejumo, and Adam Little, CCWP. Saleem Khaja

"Perception matters, especially when it comes to where one works. It reflects who we are and can impact our own brand. As an employer, being recognized as a great place to work has become a crucial factor that can influence a brand’s success in attracting and retaining top talent. It’s become much more than the brand itself, especially in today’s dynamic job market. While both brand and reputation are important and interconnected, the distinction can help talent acquisition leaders impact the candidate experience to improve their hiring strategies and build a more robust referral network."
