Ep 49 Skills-First Revolution: Kyle MK on Redefining Talent Acquisition
Did you know that 81% of jobs on Indeed are now matched to candidates based on skills, not degrees? Yet talent acquisition leaders struggle as employer expectations outpace candidate realities—creating a crisis where high hopes and rigid requirements collide. With only a small fraction of job seekers filling out "what do you want to do" fields on job sites (according to Indeed), recruitment faces unprecedented disconnect, making it urgent for employers to rethink old hiring playbooks. Only by embracing new approaches, organizations can seize the skills-first hiring opportunity to future-proof their teams.
What should forward-thinking organizations do wh...
Ep 48 Catalysts for Workforce Transformation: An RPO Future with Alex Ridder
The RPO landscape faces a reckoning: according to Nelson Hall, 60% of buyers now view providers as largely interchangeable—a figure underscoring industry-wide commoditization.

Only forward-thinking providers who evolve beyond transactional models can unlock lasting client value and seize tomorrow’s opportunity in an era where business outcomes, not just hires, define success.
Amidst this competitive tension, how can RPOs transform from cost-focused vendors to strategic business partners—or even indispensable catalysts? In this episode of the Time t...
Ep 47 The End of Recruitment as We Know It with Scotty AI Co-Founder

Only RPOs (recruitment process outsourcing providers) embracing experimentation with AI can seize this opportunity and avoid obsolescence.
Solving this unprecedented disruption requires practical, bold strategies. In this episode of the Time to...

Ep 44 AI-Native Talent Strategies: Future-Proofing RPO with Jordan Morrow
Today’s talent acquisition landscape is experiencing rapid disruption.

Ep 43 Ted Pierni of Robertson Explains How Organizations Can Transform Their Talent Acquisition Function
Across the talent acquisition landscape, 77% of companies report difficulty keeping teams right-sized amid unpredictable hiring cycles, according to the Recruitment Process Outsourcing Association (RPOA).

Amid this shake-up, how can organizations make their hiring strategies future-ready, manage compliance, and deliver a standout candidate experience—all at scale? In this episode of the Time to Hire podcast, host La...
Ep 42 Why Joe Cote Champions RPO As A Stabilizing Force In A Volatile Tech Market
A handful of $500 million-plus Series A rounds in AI highlight capital concentrating into a small set of hyperscale bets. Tech hiring pipelines expand at unnatural speed as AI-focused candidates flood postings, creating a volume shock that overwhelms screening systems. Recruiters confront shifting skill demands, hyper-competitive compensation dynamics, and application pools engineered by AI tools rather than genuine qualifications. Only a low single-digit share of applicants, on average, reaches true alignment with role requirements, exposing a widening gap that erodes capability, accuracy, and workforce readiness
Managing this volatility requires organizations to redesign recruiting architectures that withstand rapid market s...
Ep 41 Heather Taylor of MAU: How to Build a Resilient Talent Pipeline Without Over-Hiring in a Downturn
A majority of talent acquisition (TA) leaders lack hiring strategies ready for market fluctuations. This data expose how quickly teams lose traction when demand drops. Today’s talent acquisition teams face shrinking req loads, rising pressure to prove value, and unpredictable workforce needs, a combination driving a widening performance gap.

Solving this uncertainty requires rethinking the entire recruiting engine—so what should TA lead...
Ep 40 Why RPO partnerships fail (and what ZRG and Symbotic did differently)
In high-growth technology sectors, talent acquisition leaders face an unprecedented scaling challenge: how can organizations rapidly deploy recruiting capacity while maintaining quality and cultural fit? The RPOA's 2025 RPO Trends Report shows that relationship quality ranks as the top factor in RPO partnership success. Technology companies scaling warehouse automation and robotics operations struggle to build recruiting teams fast enough to support 30+ site deployments across multiple states simultaneously. According to a McKinsey report, only strategic embedded RPO partnerships that integrate seamlessly with internal teams can deliver flexibility and expertise to achieve rapid, scalable workforce growth aligned with business goals.

Research shows referred candidates get hired at a rate of 30% compared to just 7% for applicants sourced through traditional job boards.
Today's employers face an unprecedented challenge: quality candidates no longer fill the top of the funnel the way they once did, rendering traditional job board strategies obsolete. Candidates have stopped downloading job board apps and browsing corporate career sites. Instead, they rely on trust, transparency, and referrals from their professional networks. In an era of Glassdoor and rapid Gen Z information sharing, employer reputation spreads faster than ever, demanding authenticity at every touchpoint. Companies that ignore online c...
Ep 38 Elaine Nicol of AgileOne on How to Build a Magnetic Employer Brand Without a Massive Budget
Your Employer Brand Bleeds Talent—And You Don't Even Know It
According to Lighthouse Research & Advisory, 83% of candidates distrust employer brand authenticity—a crisis that costs organizations their best talent before interviews even begin. Talent acquisition leaders confront a stark reality: while 72% of professionals refuse to apply to companies with negative reputations (even when unemployed), most organizations treat employer branding as an afterthought rather than a strategic imperative. Companies that fail to build magnetic employer brands will find themselves locked out of increasingly competitive talent markets, watching top candidates flow toward competitors who've mastered authentic stor...

Solving this crisis requires answering how healthcare employers can integrate operational efficiency with genuine employer branding without sacrificing either priority. In this...
