Pay transparency regulations are forcing the issue in recruitment conversations. Organizations benefit from posting compensation ranges in job postings, even if not required, as it helps align candidate expectations early in the process, saving time and resources.
While AI and other technologies can improve efficiency and automate tasks, they cannot replace the fundamentals of recruitment, such as strong processes and human interactions. Without the basics in place, technological solutions may create more challenges and inconsistencies.
Jack was not surprised by much, noting that many booths focused on AI and skills, which started to sound alike. He was disappointed that the focus on AI often overshadowed the importance of connecting technology to people and processes.
A good onboarding experience is crucial to retaining new hires. Common pitfalls include ghosting candidates after they accept the job, failing to provide clear instructions, and not leveraging available technology to maintain communication.
During the pandemic, organizations responded in three ways: some paused hiring, others accelerated it, and some used the time to reassess and strengthen their processes and tech stack. The resilient organizations that prepared well came out stronger.

“You don’t want to get days, weeks, months into a screening process with somebody only to find at the end that you’re never going to be able to align the dots when it comes to [the compensation] that candidate is seeking and what the organization wants to pay.”**Resource: **GR8 People)**Contact: **Jack's LinkedIn)David's LinkedIn)Dwight's LinkedIn)Podcast Manager: Karissa Harris)****Email us!)****Production by Affogato Media)
