À propos de cet audio

 Want to know why some recruiters build unstoppable pipelines while others struggle? It starts with curiosity. Liz Whitehead brings raw energy and practical wisdom about what actually works in talent acquisition: staying curious, adapting like a french fry (yes, really), and remembering that recruiting is fundamentally about people, not Boolean strings. She's built her career on tech obsession balanced with genuine human connection, and this conversation reveals exactly how she does it. Key Takeaways ➡ Forever curious beats forever busy. The best recruiters treat every conversation as an opportunity to learn something new about people, industries, and motivations. ➡ Be a french fry, not a filet mignon. Versatility matters more than specialization. Adapt to different environments, clients, and challenges instead of staying rigid in your approach. ➡ Technology without humanity is just noise. Tools amplify your work, but genuine curiosity and authentic connection are what actually fill pipelines. ➡ Ask "why?" at least three times. Candidates give surface-level answers initially. Dig deeper to understand true motivations, goals, and pain points. ➡ Stop hoarding tools, start solving problems. Identify your ONE biggest pain point, then find the tool that solves it. Master that before adding more to your stack. ➡ Joy is a recruiting superpower. Bringing positive energy to every interaction isn't soft skill fluff, it's what makes candidates want to engage with you. ➡ Learn from the people you want to work with. Liz built her sourcing expertise by following industry leaders like Shally and Greg Hawkes, then applying what she learned. ➡ The intake conversation is everything. Whether it's a hiring manager or a candidate, understanding pain points upfront determines your success rate. ➡ Data scraping and automation aren't magic. They're just tools that free up time for relationship building, which is still the real work of recruiting.
