    On this week's edition of The Michigan Recruiting Insider, Sam Webb, Steve Lorenz, and Brice Marich discussed the challenges of roster retention following a coaching change, emphasizing the importance of retaining key players such as Bryce Underwood, Andrew Marsh, and Blake Frazier. Despite losing Cole Sullivan to Oklahoma, the team has retained most of the top names. The conversation highlighted the financial pressures of overpaying players to retain them. The retention efforts involving Enow Etta, Trey Pierce, Jyaire Hill, and Shamari Earls are covered in detail. Turning to future prospects, the team also discussed potential recruits and portal targets, including Bodie Sparrow, JJ Buchanan, and Quincy Porter, and noted the strategic importance of balancing production and potential in recruiting decisions. Porter's talent and star potential were highlighted, while Buchanan's familiarity with the offensive system and chance to make an immediate impact were emphasized. Finally, the conversation also covered receiver Dakota Guerrant's decision-making process and the importance of securing top in-state talent.

    Major transfer portal chaos collides with the College Football Playoff as quarterbacks flip commitments, NIL agreements unravel, and CFP semifinal rosters are suddenly in flux. A Washington quarterback enters the portal just days after signing an NIL deal, a Notre Dame backup commits and flips within 24 hours, and Nebraska pivots quickly to land an experienced transfer.The episode also covers Oregon losing a key running back ahead of the CFP semifinal against Indiana, why that injury materially changes the matchup, and how roster depth matters more than ever in playoff football. Viewership numbers for the CFP quarterfinals are in, and they're up significantly year over year — even with blowouts — raising big questions about what actually drives ratings in the expanded playoff era.The show wraps with a discussion of potential College Football Playoff calendar changes, including moving the transfer portal and recruiting windows, and why the current December–January crunch is unsustainable for players, coaches, and programs.

    How to Recruit on Social Media: Reelist's “Easy Button” for Frontline Hiring

    Recruiting on social sounds easy… until you try it. In this episode of HR Famous, Tim Sackett sits down with Sean Worden (CEO/Founder) and Katy Schuck (Co-Founder/COO) of Reelist to unpack why most TA teams struggle to hire through Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and beyond, and what it actually takes to make social recruiting work in the real world. Sean starts with the big picture: Reelist makes it “ridiculously easy” to recruit off social by automating creative, running paid + organic campaigns, handling brand safety and compliance, messaging and screening candidates, and tying it all back to your ATS with real-time optimization. Then the conversation gets fun: Reelist didn't start there. It began as a “TikTok for jobs” concept (think video-based matching)… until they realized it was turning into a job board with extra steps. The pivot? Build the infrastructure that helps employers recruit where people already are on their phones while scrolling. Tim pushes into the questions every TA leader asks: Which channel works best for in-person roles? The answer isn't a generic “TikTok!” It depends on geography and density. For rural and small-town hiring, Sean breaks down why Facebook and Instagram often outperform, while TikTok targeting can fall apart when it forces broad DMA-level reach that doesn't match “I need someone to drive 15 minutes to this plant.” Katy brings the strategy home with two essentials: awareness and action. Social ads aren't meant to impress your C-suite, they're meant to hit candidates with what they care about (pay, conditions, location) in a tight message, then make it frictionless to apply now. That “instant gratification” moment matters because speed matters. Tim shares a Marriott story that proves it: the advantage often goes to whoever responds first, not to whoever has the prettiest employer-brand deck. They also dig into what “viral” means for recruiting content (including share-to-view ratios and platform-specific behavior), why the best videos qualify and disqualify quickly, and how social can reduce junk and bot applications by capturing real intent. Finally, the crew gets into agentic AI vs. traditional GenAI, API-driven automation, real-time ATS integrations, and why security/compliance (SOC 2 Type II and more) isn't optional anymore. If you've ever said, “We've tried social… it didn't work,” this episode might change your mind and your playbook.

Gerade deshalb wird es entscheidend, wie du verhandelst, wie du deinen Wert zeigst und wie du dich positionierst. In dieser Folge bekommst du drei Prinzipien, die dich preisstark machen – auch dann, wenn alle sparen.Preislogik – Warum „zu teuer“ nicht existiertPreislogik bedeutet, dass du zuerst den Wert sichtbar machst und erst danach den Preis. Kunden kaufen Sicherheit, Expertise und Geschwindigkeit – nie Stunden. Wer eine klare Preislogik kommuniziert, verschiebt den Fokus vom Kostenfaktor zur Problemlösung. Nutzenargumentation – Der Kunde kauft, was sich für ihn verändertKunden kaufen keine Leistung, sondern Transformation. Die Frage „Was bringt es mir?“ entscheidet 2026 über Abschlüsse. Wer Nutzen statt Prozesse verkauft, wird nicht gestrichen, wenn Budgets sinken. Firmen sparen zuerst bei Marketing, Weiterbildung, externen Beratern, Innovationsbudgets und Recruiting. Wenn du zeigen kannst, dass deine Arbeit Umsatz steigert, Risiken senkt oder Ressourcen spart, fällst du nicht unter diese Sparmassnahmen.Wert-Anker – Positioniere dich höher als die NachfrageDer erste Preis, den du nennst, prägt die gesamte Verhandlung. Studien zeigen klar, dass hohe Anker zu höheren akzeptierten Endpreisen führen. Wenn du tief einsteigst, bleibst du tief. Wenn du hoch ansetzt, schaffst du Spielraum.

    Send us a textAI can sift resumes, flag cheaters, and surface real talent—but only if you pair it with clear roles, smart assessments, and disciplined communication. That's the system Ben Johnson, CEO of Particle 41, walks us through as we compare notes on hiring at scale, building global engineering teams, and turning remote work from transactional to tight-knit. We get specific on how an AI resume scorer and assessment workflow cut through 500+ applicants a week, why an 85% relevance threshold saves recruiter time, and how anti-cheating tools keep the signal clean across technical and non-technical roles.From there, we zoom out to the leadership moves that unlock elite performance. Accountability charts replace names with roles and outcomes, giving us a cleaner way to design teams, define expectations, and reduce constant reorgs. Ben's “practice squads” create small, cross-client groups that meet monthly, rotate moderators, and blend personal and professional growth—so engineers become confident consultants, not just coders. Layer on lightweight rituals like daily focus updates and weekly client status reports, and you get fewer meetings, clearer priorities, and faster delivery across time zones.We also unpack the product playbook: start with design to force hard decisions, define the real MVP, and make smart build, buy, or partner calls where customers feel it most. Before chasing “more AI,” get your SOPs in order, let teams prototype improvements with ChatGPT, and target one workflow at a time—aim small, miss small—to avoid overspending and measure impact. We close with a pragmatic security reminder: never reuse passwords, use a password manager, and assume AI is accelerating both offense and defense.

    We're just days away from a brand new year, and there's one leadership skill that will define your momentum in 2026: turning vision into structure. In this episode of Recruiting Conversations, I walk you through how to go beyond inspiring language and build a vision your team and your recruits can actually believe in. If you've ever felt like your vision gets lost or fades after January, this will show you how to make it stick; with structure, ownership, and real action steps. Episode Breakdown [00:00] Welcome & Setup – It's almost New Year's Eve, which means you're probably reflecting on what you built and casting vision for what's next [01:00] Why Most Vision Fades – Leaders share big ideas in December, but they don't connect it to structure, behavior, or execution [02:00] Step 1: Define the Destination – What would be true by the end of 2026 if your vision came to life? Culture, structure, experience, leadership [02:45] Step 2: Break It Into Pillars – Group your goals into clear themes: leadership development, recruiting, systems, team structure, brand, etc. [03:00] Step 3: Start Small and Assign Ownership – What's one thing you can move forward in January? Assign a name and a timeline [03:45] Step 4: Communicate Often – The biggest mistake is thinking people will remember your vision after hearing it once. Repetition builds belief [04:30] Step 5: Connect Systems to Your Story – Don't just post wins or numbers. Let your systems and your social content reflect where you're going [05:00] Final Challenge – Do this before midnight on New Year's Eve: Write down your 2026 vision Name 3 pillars that support it Identify 1 action step for the first week of January [05:30] The Real Goal – Your vision doesn't need to be perfect. It needs to be anchored in what matters to you and repeated with consistency [06:00] Wrap-Up – When your team knows where you're going and how you're getting there, recruiting becomes magnetic. Happy New Year Key Takeaways Vision Without Structure Fades – Most leaders talk about the future but don't build a roadmap to get there Start With the End in Mind – Get crystal clear on what success actually looks like 12 months from now Use Pillars to Organize the Chaos – Categorizing your goals helps you make progress in focused areas Assign Ownership and Set Timelines – Even the smallest next step brings your vision to life Repetition Builds Belief – Say your vision often enough that your team starts to echo it back to you This isn't about perfection. It's about clarity, consistency, and commitment. When your vision becomes a roadmap, people don't just hear it. They believe it. And when they believe it, they follow you into 2026 with trust.

They dig into why “keep it simple” beats complex hiring funnels, how to design a value ladder that moves buyers forward, and where AI helps (and hurts) in the hiring process. Ryan also shares the gritty lessons that shaped him (from bankruptcies to billion-dollar beliefs) and the leadership habits he brought home from the Navy.In this episode, they cover:✅ Value ladder & micro-commitments — the psychology of getting small “yeses,” including Ryan's Hunt A Killer application flow that primed buyers before any purchase.✅ Authentic scarcity — how to use real capacity limits (e.g., only onboarding 3–4 clients/week) to increase conversion without breaking trust.✅ AI in recruiting (the truth) — great for assessments and repurposing insights; poor at relationship-building with A-players who won't talk to a bot first.✅ Hiring veterans — look for resilience + self-awareness; ask how they learned, trained, failed, and translated that into civilian impact....and much more!BIOS:Ryan Hogan is the Founder & CEO of Talent Harbor, specializing in flat-rate, expert sales recruiting.
