Accelerating Talent Acquisition in the Digital Frontier Through Outstanding Leadership  Welcome to a new episode of CX Labs, our installment of the Digitally Irresistible podcast that brings you the latest CX practices, industry developments, and technology insights to inspire new heights of customer service success.    In this episode, we feature Jan Rae Aguilos, a sourcing manager for iQor Philippines. Jan shares how iQor's streamlined recruitment approach blends intelligent automation, digital technology, and human expertise to match candidates to job positions where they can excel.   Under Jan's outstanding leadership, iQor's recruitment process leverages social media channels and chatbots to provide the quick, convenient application and interview processes today's job seekers crave. This results in empowered employees who deliver customer service with a smile and create unparalleled advantage for iQor's clients.   Read on for an inside glimpse into iQor's digital recruiting assistant, Qori, and the friendly and personalized touch Jan and his team bring to the hiring journey.  Irresistible Benefits and Unlimited Career Opportunities in iQor Philippines   After eight years as a marketing professional, Jan shifted his career trajectory to join iQor at our site in Iloilo City in the Philippines.    As a sourcing manager, Jan identifies hiring needs, develops effective recruitment strategies, and implements recruitment campaigns that inform his community about iQor's career opportunities.   Jan explains how iQor's professional development and career growth potential provide an irresistible incentive to build his future with iQor. His teammates also inspire him to share these benefits with others through exceptional leadership and talent acquisition strategies that appeal to top-notch candidates.   The Fusion of Automation, Digital Technology, and Human Expertise   Jan's talent acquisition approach utilizes both intelligent automation and human insight to reach more potential applicants and expedite the hiring process. According to Jan, convenience is critical for effective recruitment. Jan's approach meets candidates in the digital spaces they already use daily with user-friendly social media application and interview options.   Introducing Qori, iQor's Digital Recruiting Assistant  When job seekers begin the application process on their social media channel of choice, they are assisted by Qori, iQor's digital recruiting chatbot. Qori provides applicants information about required materials and helps them know what to expect from the process.  Qori also plays a pivotal role in capturing relevant information from the candidates, effectively reducing the application time with AI capabilities tailored to the recruitment process. Once the initial interaction with Qori is complete, iQor's friendly human recruiters step in to process the application, ensuring a swift and efficient experience for all applicants.   Powering Unparalleled Workforce Management With Symphony [AI]™  iQor is committed to leveraging AI throughout our business operations to streamline processes for employees, clients, and job candidates alike.

While many job seekers wait weeks or longer to receive updates about their application status, Qori notifies applicants within hours.   Recruiters have also expressed their satisfaction with the assistance Qori provides, as it amplifies their abilities and enables them to process candidates more efficiently. This harmonious blend of digital augmentation and human talent creates an environment that benefits prospective job candidates, recruiters, and the businesses iQor supports with our BPO solutions.  Face-to-Face Interactions With Video Interviews  Zoom interviews are another part of iQor's multichannel talent acquisition strategy. Jan explains that prospective candidates can expect a modern and easily accessible hiring process when using our Zoom recruiting channel to participate in virtual hiring sessions. iQor's interviewers are on standby to provide immediate feedback through on-camera conversations with applicants.  iQor values a warm and friendly welcome between current and prospective team members, highlighting the importance of the human touch as a leading priority from the first interview and throughout all customer communication. Jan's top suggestion for applicants preparing to interview with iQor? A smile that places warmth and openness at the heart of every interaction.    Building Expert Teams With Tech Excellence   The integration of digital technology and expert human teams facilitates a personable application and interview process for prospective iQorians. As iQor continues to set new benchmarks in tech-powered hiring practices, we ensure that the driving force behind our business operations is people whose unique expertise is strengthened by digital recruiting solutions like Qori.    Jan's leadership is a vital part of iQor's commitment to providing a forward-thinking and supportive environment that prioritizes both digital innovation and genuine human interaction.  To learn more about Jan, visit him on LinkedIn.   Watch the video here.

On today's episode, host Ryan Dull is joined by Matt Rimer, Director of Talent Acquisition at Trinity Health (HQ Michigan) and Host of “TA In The Trenches”, join them for a real dialogue on some of the latest insights, trends, and challenges inside healthcare talent acquisition today. Here's a few notes from the show: - TA can be hesitant to adopt emerging technologies due to a lack of connectivity to the specific use cases TA leaders are working to solve. - Though technology provides many benefits, nothing can replace the value of genuine human interaction. - With machine learning and artificial intelligence, recruiters can focus on tasks better suited for human interaction. - Recruiter, Hiring Manager, and Candidate experience must remain a priority and technology should improve it, not detract from it. With technology, the focus should always be on how it can give us leverage to improve our results. That usually starts with making things more efficient, but what everyone should be striving to deploy are those "big levers" that will have a lasting impact and truly change the game.

A major differentiator for High5 is how trust and high-quality outcomes are delivered to all users. Each candidate, recruiter, talent supplier, customer, and job are vetted and verified before entering the supply chain.    When paired with High5’s talent engagement technology and global payrolling capabilities, these talent supply innovations are capable of delivering any candidate, with any skill, on any form of work,  to any employer or managed staffing program, anywhere in the world. This ALL-talent and ALL-work approach is a distinguishing characteristic of High5. From full-time to part-time, contract, contract-to-hire, SOW, on-site or remote, from gig-work to big work — it all gets done with High5.   Traditional staffing services and talent platforms used to find talent globally are fragmented and limited in the breadth of services they provide,” Robert Merritt, High5’s Chief Revenue Officer, explains. “They are limited in the vetting and curation of talent they deliver employers and managed staffing programs. Traditional methods promote speed over quality at the employer’s and candidate’s expense. These methods result in poor talent quality, wasted time and money, long fill times, and a hiring manager and candidate experience that is less than desirable.”   https://hrtechfeed.com/high5-launches-new-recruiter-marketplace/   Paradox, the leading conversational AI platform helping global talent acquisition teams automate recruiting tasks like screening, interview scheduling, and candidate communications, announced today the acquisition of Spetz.io, an Israeli startup helping clients like EY and Sodastream modernize candidate communications.

But it wasn’t just about creating another R&D center. Just as important, Matos said the Spetz team’s vision, mission, and values closely aligned with Paradox. “This acquisition is all about aligning with incredibly smart people who share our passion for building products that recruiting teams love,” Matos said. “We were impressed with the Spetz team’s growth, and even more impressed with their vision for what we can build together.” Yam Dvir, Spetz’s co-founder and CEO, said the feeling was mutual. “When we met with the Paradox team we immediately saw a massive opportunity to build something bigger than ourselves,” said Dvir. “Combining our expertise with Paradox’s vision and momentum as a clear category leader is really one of those ‘the whole is greater than the sum of its parts’ opportunities. We can’t wait to get started accelerating Paradox’s vision for a future where recruiting is frictionless, elegant, and people-centric.” https://hrtechfeed.com/paradox-acquires-israeli-chatbot-spetz-io/   PAIRIN, the workforce journey company, today announced the official close of its Series A investment round, now totaling $4.36M. This round builds upon the $2.1 million raised in June.   The COVID-19 pandemic has pulled back the curtain on the challenges that come with navigating and delivering services like unemployment, career planning and education, provided by states, education institutions and workforce programs. These services are often difficult to use, inflexible, not personalized for users and costly to replace. PAIRIN helps ensure end users can quickly and easily navigate access to services like career assistance and college planning through its innovative My Journey platform. “Not only are individuals struggling in the workforce because of the pandemic, but many government and workforce agencies are also facing challenges with budget cuts and consolidation,” said Michael Simpson, CEO and founder, PAIRIN. “We are very grateful to our investors for their continued support.

Turing rigorously vets developers for a Silicon Valley bar. Turing has accomplished dramatic growth over the past year — growing by 17X in the last 14 months, from $700K to almost $12 Million. The company has 180,000 developers signed up on the platform and counts several high-profile Silicon Valley technology companies as customers.

This round, which brings CodeSignal’s total funding to $37.5 million, was led by Menlo Ventures  Founded in 2015 CodeSignal is disrupting the traditional recruiting market, helping recruiters and hiring managers conduct unbiased pre-employment screenings for technical roles more efficiently and at scale. The company’s Coding Score™ allows companies to quickly evaluate technical qualifications at the very top of the funnel, just like Credit Score for the lending industry and SAT scores for college admissions.

Video interviews – conspicuously absent from the standard application process in this video age – enable companies to rethink how they find their most important resources: their employees. By highlighting candidates’ personalities, soft skills, and workplace compatibility with company culture – key features missing in one-dimensional resumes – myInterview enables character to feature more prominently in the application process. The platform streamlines recruitment for businesses and applicants alike by utilizing pre-recorded (asynchronous) video interviews that allow candidates and reviewers to fit the interview into their schedules. The demand for video interview tools has climbed sharply in the wake of remote working and social distancing norms, and helped fuel myInterview’s rapid growth, including a significant rise in new users on the platform and a 500% increase in Annual Recurring Revenue since 2019. myInterview is already being used by over 2,000 companies globally including Ocado, B&M, and P&O Ferries. myInterview has also worked with Facebook Career Connections and has a strategic partnership with reed.co.uk, the UK’s #1 job site. “The way companies recruit talent is outdated and doesn’t provide the necessary level of insight into applicants required by HR professionals,” said Benjamin Gillman, CEO and Co-founder of myInterview. “A video is worth a thousand resumes. By utilizing video interviews, we help businesses prioritize personality and cultural fit, optimizing the screening and selection process by ensuring that the applicants who are the best fit are moved to the head of the line. We use video in so many facets of our lives – recruiting and hiring are finally catching up.” https://hrtechfeed.com/video-interview-platform-myinterview-raises-5-million-seed-round/ Lastly another company out of San Fran got funding last week and I think it might be one of the strangest startups to get funded in our space. This one is called CODI... Codi thinks many people find working from home a challenge due to a shortage of space, roommates, partners, children, and lack of work/life separation. In response, Codi, the first company to offer daytime workspaces in private homes, announced today that it has expanded to New York, where the company is working with employers to arrange for safe, private working spaces in employees’ own neighborhoods, enabling them to walk to work and avoid long commutes.  Codi also announced that it has raised $7M in funding from several investors ...that includes a previously announced 2018 pre-seed round of $1.65M. Codi says they are sparking a walk-to-work movement by providing people with access to workspaces right in their neighborhoods. Companies can have dedicated Codi workspaces that exclusively serve their teams – allowing single employees or small groups to work together, locally but privately. To start, Codi is offering its service in Manhattan, Brooklyn and Northern NJ. Already, Codi has lined up 100+ hosts and hundreds of members, who have access to Codi via their employers.  I dont know about you but I’m not sure why need a platform to go work at somebody else’s house...maybe it just me. https://hrtechfeed.com/codi-raises-7-million-to-offer-daytime-workspaces-in-private-homes/

Let’s Dive is a platform that eliminates isolation by bringing teams together and recreating a social space where participants can connect through a range of exciting activities. This creates deeper bonds amongst remote teams who lack the advantage of personal connections. Teams can play games like poker, pictionary, icebreakers, trivias, chess, card games and organise YouTube watch parties. Let’s Dive has already attracted over 100 teams from 28 countries to its platform. Currently, Let’s Dive is an invite-only experience. Companies can apply for access on www.letsdive.io. https://hrtechfeed.com/lets-dive-lands-us1-7-million-to-make-remote-working-more-human/ Talkpush, the leader in recruitment automation, wants to work with companies that see their talent pool as their greatest competitive asset.

Text-Based Assessments also provide candidates with a quick, engaging experience that can be accessed on any device. The customized blueprint workflow consists of three phases: an On-Demand Text Interview screening to establish career stability and minimum qualifications, followed by a Realistic Job Preview and the pre-configured Virtual Job Tryout assessment designed specifically for telehealth. The final phase is an On-Demand video interview, where candidates can respond to scenarios they may encounter on the job, including difficult patient interactions, technical issues that may arise during virtual patient visits or follow-up questions about their qualifications.  https://hrtechfeed.com/modern-hire-launches-text-based-assessments/ iCIMS, the Talent Cloud company that recently underwent a rebrand, has announced the acquisition of EASYRECRUE, the European leader in video interviewing and digital assessment capability.

The move enters SmartRecruiters into the rapidly growing recruitment process automation (RPA) market, where the future of recruiting prioritizes human interactions and automates repetitive, time consuming tasks. In a world where TA leaders receive 4X the candidate volume but have half the resources on their team, automation is the only way to keep up and continue to offer great experiences to everyone. As the leading talent acquisition suite, automation will be deeply embedded into every step of SmartRecruiters’ recruiting workflow engine to unlock massive efficiencies for hiring teams.  The feature will be rebranded as “SmartPal”   “jobpal is where automation meets individualization,” shares Florian Schrodt, Head of Employer Branding at Zurich Public Transport. “The technology helps us improve thousands of candidate communications every month. With nearly 80% automated answers, our hiring teams are saving hundreds of hours that we can now dedicate to the most important task: relationship building and adding value to our candidates.” The companies’ existing partnership and integrated technologies means new products are available now. SmartRecruiters is excited to introduce SmartPal, a family of recruiting chatbots that put repetitive interactions on autopilot and drive meaningful candidate conversations throughout the entire recruitment lifecycle to accelerate Hiring Success.

By recording and automatically analysing interviews, Metaview’s Interview Metrics enables organizations to access empirical data on how consistent and rigorous their hiring processes are for the first time. This launch is a major step for Metaview on their mission to reimagine how exceptional organizations build teams. Metaview was founded by team-builders from Palantir and Uber after they observed first-hand that interviews are the most outcome-defining step in any recruitment process. Despite commonly being cited as subjective and bias-prone, they determine who joins a team, and who doesn’t. Additionally, growing organizations spend thousands of people hours per year on conducting interviews. Metaview has recorded, transcribed, and analyzed over ten thousand hours of interviews in the last 18 months since raising a round of funding from Fly Ventures in Berlin, Seedcamp in London, and Village Global and Garuda Ventures in San Francisco. They count high-growth companies such as Bulb, AngelList, Careem, Wave, and Stedi among their customers. “Metaview was already the most effective tool for improving individual interviewers at Bulb. Now, Interview Metrics tells me more about the health of the interview process at large than it was ever possible to know previously. With this, I can ensure hiring managers and interviewers are getting the support they need to conduct great interviews, and candidates get the high-quality, fair interview process they deserve,” says Michael Laws, Head of Recruitment at Bulb. https://hrtechfeed.com/introducing-interview-metrics-measuring-what-matters-for-growing-organizations/   Remote, an HR technology platform for international payroll, benefits and compliance, today announced that it has secured $35 million in Series A funding led by Index Ventures and joined by Sequoia Capital, with additional participation from angel investors including Aaron Levie, Zach Weinberg, and Kevin and Julia Hartz.

Scouted automatically parses applicant resumes and uses artificial intelligence to find current employees who can add context about the applicant’s work experience. Here’s how it works..., if an applicant worked in marketing at Pinterest and applied to work at Etsy, Scouted finds current relevant employees at Etsy who previously worked in marketing at Pinterest and collects their input. Engaging employees early in the hiring process is known to be beneficial for hiring quality, speed, and diversity. More data leads to better outcomes and faster hires. “Scouted can help you speed up your candidate screening process while improving the quality of your applicants,” says Vinayak Ranade, CEO at Drafted. “There’s a current employee somewhere in your org, who has overlapping experience with the applicant, who can give you incredibly valuable data to inform screening decisions. It’s almost like a post-application referral.” Scouted integrates with Greenhouse ATS and Slack. The company is offering free access to any Greenhouse ATS customers until Dec 31, 2020. Those interested can sign up at scouted.to. https://hrtechfeed.com/scouted-launches-to-find-missed-connections-between-employees-and-applicants/ ##########

Originally designed as a marketplace to allow executive-level women to re-enter the world of work in a flexible manner after having a family, it later expanded into a wider market for anyone wanting to work flexibly and for employers who need that kind of workforce. But with the world of work totally upended by the pandemic, “flexibility” is literally now the name of the game. Juggle has now disclosed its funding of $2.1 million from investors in the U.K. and the U.S. Investors include a number of the U.K.’s leading angels... With many businesses moving to flexible working arrangements, whether that means remote work, part-time, or shared roles, Juggle connects them with professionals that aren’t the typical “9-to-5” type people. Professionals sign up for the service, and recruitment tools allow them to schedule and keep track of job applications; coaching and support are available. Juggle also provides “smart matching” and the necessary paperwork to allow for these flexible roles. Businesses using Juggle to find the right candidate are vetted in advance to ensure that they embrace flexibility, so both employers and employees know what they are getting.   Founded by former headhunter Romanie Thomas, a core mission for Juggle, she said, is to see women in 50% of business leadership roles by 2027. Since launching in 2017, Thomas said 62% of all placements made by Juggle have been female. https://hrtechfeed.com/juggle-secures-2-1m-to-expand-its-flexible-work-saas-marketplace-for-senior-execs/ eQuest today announced that it will transform the way people post Internet jobs. Beginning Monday, November 16, 2020, customers with Amazon Echo or Alexa Built-in devices will be able to say, “Alexa, open job posting”. This key command will automatically connect the voice-user to eQuest – which holds the entire catalog of jobs for that customer to access for job posting. The user can then say, “post a job” or “check activity”. Gartner predicts that, by 2023, 25 percent of employee interactions with applications will be via voice, up from under 3 percent in 2019. Voice interfaces free digital workers from having to use a mouse and keyboard when interacting with business applications. This freedom can benefit workers greatly. eQuest announced earlier this year that much of its strategy for 2020 and 2021 will be focused on automating the greater percentage of its products. The voice activated release is one many planned for release in the next 18 months. “We are very excited to bring new technologies to the Human Resources community,” said Bob Jaworski, in charge of eQuest’s ATS and CRM alliances. “Our goal is to automate much of the job posting process. Simplicity is the name of the game.” https://hrtechfeed.com/equest-to-release-voice-activated-job-posting/

MarketerHire also announced today the launch of its MarketerMatch™ technology, a new data-driven algorithmic solution that based on millions of potential combinations intelligently narrows down potential freelancing talent to the most qualified marketing experts for every job. “Today’s startup economy depends on the expertise of industry specialists as much or more than full-time generalists,” said Nick Green, co-founder and CEO Thrive Market, MarketerHire customer and investor. “For a lot of high-growth companies, it no longer makes sense to build a big in-house team; better to leverage the best specialists to get the job done, and MarketerHire enables that talent to be easily found and matched — and all remote.” “Our goal is to make the very best minds in marketing accessible to all, delivering the right amount of the right marketer, right now,” said Chris Toy, co-founder and CEO, MarketerHire. “The MarketerHire platform does just that – while simultaneously creating unprecedented career mobility and optionality for the best marketers in the world.” https://hrtechfeed.com/marketing-job-platform-secures-3m-in-funding/     ##########

What's life been like marketing jobs in the age of coronavirus? Seeing any uptick in applications? Great point about the 10 years ago thing…remote tech was not as good...what would we do? Session to focus on Employer Branding and Recruiting Technology. Some talking points:   Recruitment marketing Tech Stack We leverage: Phenom People for: our careers website, Content Management System (CMS), Candidate Relationship Management (CRM), Chatbot, and Talent Analytics  For our blog, we utilize it as a gateway for storytelling on LinkedIn - we keep our copy/stories short on LinkedIn, and usually provide a link to a blog post on our careers site to tell the full story, which gets users in our "ecosystem" - i.e. closer to applying. We also feature blog content in certain places across our careers site. For example, we have a Sales Development Associate program - we uploaded an "FAQ" blog for the role, and link to the article on the Sales Development Associate job posting page. LinkedIn for: employer brand awareness, as well as analytics and competitive insights into our performance against competitors Adobe Spark for: easy graphic design for employer branding content Phenom stats...     Empl experience...Employer Branding in times of COVID-19 Keeping new hires engaged whilst we’re not in the office is a challenge many organizations are facing. We were particularly concerned about our interns – who were all coming into our internship program entirely remote. This summer was the inaugural launch of our formalized internship program, so it was critical that we not only educate about our business, but also embody our ‘at your side’ philosophy wherever possible. So leading up to the interns’ first day, we sent them a series of emails. Each email introduced the intern to a new person: the head of recruiting, the hiring manager, two generalists, and our company President. Each email had the person’s headshot, a personal message, information about our business and culture, and a personal, favorite “Brother” moment from the sender. Example: Finding ways to make your brand more human can help your company stand out in the competitive talent space. We have a chatbot on our careers site named Ays (short for At your side), and depending on the questions you ask, you may get a cheeky response. If you ask “Are you a human?” the chatbot will say it doesn’t like labels except if they are coming from a Brother P-Touch labelmaker, or if you ask a question it does not understand it will say “I seem to have run out of ink on this one – try rephrasing your question” Optimizing social media content to get important messages across Example: Our Black Lives Matter post, which took advantage of LinkedIn’s new swiping graphic capabilities with PDF documents. The post generated a 23% engagement rate, and received special recognition. How often do you post on social media? The value of Job Board Programmatic Advertising In the past, we would drop a lump sum of money to sponsor on a per job, per job board basis. Now, we strategically sponsor our jobs across a variety of job board networks, boosting spend to jobs that are performing well, and reducing spend to jobs that are performing poorly. Within just under a month of launch, the paid traffic from programmatic was 69% vs. 31% for organic. Years ago, we abolished Ziprecruiter as a job board channel, and now it is our #1 job board channel. Leveraging employee networks to amplify your talent brand and encourage referrals Example: Most promotions at Brother happen in July, and for the past 3 years we have provided custom graphics to people managers with promoted employees, encouraging them to share with their LinkedIn networks. This year, nearly half of eligible people managers participated, driving a 400+% increase in reactions and a 1,000+% increase in comments. July became our 2nd best month in the rolling calendar year for LinkedIn home page views, and our best month for unique visitors to our About and People pages as a result. Example: We all know referrals are great sources of hire for various reasons (low cost, and usually high performers) and user time on social platforms, particularly LinkedIn, has increased significantly amidst the pandemic. In competing for eyeballs, you want to stand out as much as you can. We recently created a social graphic and messaging that hiring managers and other employees can use to promote open roles to their networks. The image can be set as the OG image on our job posting pages, so that the link preview on social platforms will be hyper-customized. We also took advantage of utilizing emojis and Unicode text to further emphasize and stand-out. What’s in the pipeline/what are you working on that you are excited for?

One of the most powerful tools in your hiring process in the phone interview. The challenge that we have is that it is treated as a screen just to find out if someone has the skills needed. And this process takes on average 5-10 minutes.   It is such an opportunity loss because your first point of contact should be about establishing the connection with the person regardless of the outcome. Your phone interview sets the stage for how you are perceived and severely affects your ability to hire. Today’s Quote:  "When it comes to success, there are no shortcuts."  - Bo Bennett Our guest today: Chris Wood, Director of Recruiting for RISE Recruitment USA & Managing Director of theRecruitmentCollective Chris has spent the past 15 years in the Staffing industry utilizing his background in Recruitment and Account Management to help Fortune 500 companies solve their hiring problems by recruiting top talent within the Aerospace, Automotive, Medical Device, Healthcare, Finance & Consumer Goods industries.  In 2017, he took on the role of Managing Director at theRecruitingCollective, an organization of independent, specialized recruiters and boutique firms centered around providing new, custom talent programs. His primary focus today is attracting over and retaining top talent to the Cannabis, CBD & Natural Products industries.  He previously sat on the board for National Human Resources Association – Los Angeles and is currently on the program committees for DisruptHR Orange County and San Diego.  In addition, he is an advisor to numerous Recruiting Technology platforms and emerging Cannabis and CBD companies and a member of the National Association of Cannabis Businesses.  Today we are going to discuss Why phone interviews are a critical part of the hiring process  How to conduct an effective phone interview  Why are Phone interviews more important now than ever? Understand the person Goals, skills & interests - Career path/motivations Passive recruiting - building a constant stream of qualified candidates Due to the lack of face to face; with Covid-19 restrictions on in person meetings, this is the only way to hire talent during these times Sets the tone for process Positioning of your phone interview Setting a clear objective of what you want to get from the call; feel for personality fit with team, explanation/knowledge of necessary experience, understanding of career path and long term intentions Asking specific questions that address strengths of candidate that fills a need with your team Identifying interest of candidate in role & joining your team How to conduct a phone interview Self reflection- identifying the hole on the team Understand what is really needed Identify characteristics of the person so you can create questioning to reveal if candidates fulfills your teams need How are you going to find what you need Creating the profile of the ideal hire Establishing must haves vs nice to haves Contact Asking the questions that are centered around the key things you need to know Strategic questioning  Rick’s Nuggets Purpose of the phone interview is to understand the person first Identify their reason for hearing (pain), what they want to be doing (desire) and what they have accomplished Key Takeaways: Don't just look at the resume, definitely talk to someone. Take the phone screen very seriously Really get to know what the person wants. Get to know them!
