HireCamp Presentation - Kenny Mendes, Box
- How Bad Reality TV Made Recruiting Better at Box Kenny Mendes Director of Recruiting, Box January 16, 2013 kenny@box.com @kmendes
- Box has a long history with reality TV….
- Meet Allie
- (Real Allie)
- Goal: Hire 200 sales reps* Team: Allie + Sourcer + Coordinator Constraint: Our sales people still had to hit quota! *Must be epic, world-class sales reps
- This brings us back to reality TV and Box
- Both start with pre-screened candidates… We use LinkedIn… Patti uses headshots
- …And invite them to a social gathering We call ours, “Drink n Sync”…Patti calls hers mixers
- Then, we bring our top picks back for a more intimate meeting Ours is called an OOBIE…hers is called a “mini-date”
- Thankfully, the recruiting team knows how to close better than Dylan ;)
- JUST KIDDING!
- Thanks!!! kenny@box.com
Editor's Notes
- The goals are pretty clear…lofty, no doubt…but it was absolutely critical that we hit these hiring goals because all of our revenue targets depended on us succeeding.Allie had a really small team to tackle this problem. It was essentially her, one other sourcer, and a coordinator. There was also this tricky constraint…Our team of 20 sales reps literally couldn’t afford to spend 4-5 hours a day doing interviews. Their productivity would be crippled. This was not a fun position for Allie to be in, but I had full confidence that she’d find a great way to do it.
