Talent Acquisition Doesn't Belong Under HR - It Belongs Under Operations With Keith Hulen of SmartRank

Imagine revolutionizing your company's Talent Acquisition (TA), shifting it under Operations, and enhancing your hiring process. To unpack this compelling concept, I am joined by Keith Hulen from SmartRank. We kick around why Talent Acquisition seems to be misplaced under HR and how shifting it under Operations could be a game-changer. Drawing from our experiences and observations in the TA field, we debate the pros and cons of such a move, the rebranding of HR to People Operations in Silicon Valley being a historical example to ponder upon.<br/><br/>We also put under the microscope the practicality of this reorganization, focusing on how smaller companies can smoothly implement it. We emphasize the crucial role of the hiring manager in this transition and touch upon the impediments larger companies may face due to their pre-existing structures. In the concluding phase, we explore the ripple effects of moving TA from HR to Operations on the hiring process, and stress on the significance of executive sponsorship in ensuring a successful transition. The idea is clear: involving an operations person in the hiring process can be a win-win for all.Halve your hiring time, improve hiring diversity and gain valuable insights - all delivered through one seamless, intuitive platform.
