Building Talent Pipelines vs Lean/Just-In-Time Recruiting - Talent 42 KeynoteGlen Cathey
In theory, building a talent "pipeline" sounds like an ideal strategy, ensuring that you always have a steady supply of the talent you're looking for. In reality, there are many issues with building talent pipelines, and they all "leak" extensively. This presentation, delivered as the closing Keynote of Talent42 2014, deeply explores the core issues associated with building tech talent pipelines, proposes that recruiting is essentially a company's human capital supply chain and examines the many benefits of applying lean principles to the recruiting process, including reducing the 7 deadly wastes and Just-In-Time delivery.

Apprenticeships are an effective means of employers developing their own talent. They also offer a viable alternative to university for people looking for a direct and affordable route to skilled jobs and careers. However, many employers have yet to recognise the full benefits of apprenticeships, even though their value extends to most sectors and occupations.
The CIPD’s new guide on apprenticeships gives practical advice on how employers can tailor high-quality apprenticeship programmes that meet their current and future skills needs.

Each technological age has been marked by a shift in how the industrial platform enables companies to rethink their business processes and create wealth. In the talk I argue that we are limiting our view of what this next industrial/digital age can offer because of how we read, measure and through that perceive the world (how we cherry pick data). Companies are locked in metrics and quantitative measures, data that can fit into a spreadsheet. And by that they see the digital transformation merely as an efficiency tool to the fossil fuel age.

The Key Recruiting Metric You're Not Tracking: Source of InfluenceSmashFly Technologies
If you aren't tracking the entire candidate journey, how can you improve it? Research by Inavero shows that today's candidate touches 18 source of information and checks 7-8 reviews before he or she hits apply. Unfortunately, typical recruiting analytics offer insight into just one of those: the last source a candidate used before he or she applied. If you want to fully understand the impact of your recruitment marketing efforts, you need to look at the candidate journey from end to end, tracking every touchpoint and interaction along the way. Enter source of influence.

The Insiders Guide to Employer Branding - 27 Best Practice InsightsKelly Services
Many of the old tools and strategies for building an authentic, globally relevant employer brand have been discarded, and new ones are taking over. Both the challenges and opportunities have grown almost in tandem, and it’s all happening at break-neck speed.
One thing is clear: employer branding has changed, dramatically.
Our Global Best Practice Xchange (BPX) Roundtable on the subject confirmed it. It was 90 minutes of rigorous discussion with eight seasoned professionals leading the way in employer branding innovation for their organizations. They shared their successes, mistakes and thoughts on their plans for the future.
So, if you are wondering if there’s a better, clearer way to lead your organization and practice through this change, this guide is for you.

Проучването показва, че едва 18% от назначените през 2012 г. американци са намерили работата си чрез сайтове за работа от типа на jobs.bg. От Jobvite добавят, че тенденцията е низходяща, т.е. делът на наетите чрез тях ще продължи да намалява.
Начин за намиране на работа №1 е препоръката от познат, който работи във фирмата, търсеща служител. Той е подействал за 24.5% от наетите през 2012 г. в САЩ.

3. The Back Story
Every year since 2001 we have published a ‘lab report’ on Source of Hire.
(They are all still archived on our site)
The point of it is that the quality of the data currently found within ALL ATSs is still, and especially today,
too ugly to use for effective decision making.
Vendors who bolt on other solutions to cherry pick internet candidate movement collect equally flawed data.
They [mostly] embarrass themselves with their hype over their claims to be measuring ‘best source of hire
data’.
The online debate only confuses small and medium size firms.
Larger firms know better or simply confuse themselves.
We are happy to chat [briefly] with any employer and will offer in early January a discussion of these slides
for employers. We will happily make time or, support the efforts of any consultant or vendor striving to build
a practical strategy that realistically integrates SOH data (click here to schedule) but, we are sun-setting the
annual CareerXroads SOH Lab Report with this last deck
4. The Back Story
“Source” is meaningless. It’s how you play your hand that counts.
GI = GO is as constant as E-MC2
Slices by Job Family, Geography, Level and Industry that correlate time,
cost, quality and yield are almost too obvious…
and yet no one does it well.
Sources are interdependent and therefore cannot add up to 100%
(They add up to at least 200%!)
Analysts and researchers who misrepresent that 100k hires by 10k firms = 100k hires by 10 firms (by hiding
their demographic data) have never recruited. And THAT is the nicest thing we say about them.
Strategy
trumps tactics

insourced, other units have contractors onsite, and still others have different RPO setups. There are many different RPOs across the company.”
“We do not use any traditional RPO providers. Global hiring is supported by combination of company Recruiters and HR Generalists. Some report to centralized US Corp.
Talent Acquisition and some do not.”
“The majority of our hires are in retail and most of those are done by store managers. About 25% done by RPO globally.”
“RPO Vender hires all Retail P/T positions.”

32. Various ATS’s and other technology vendors are reporting SOH by studying
the “big data” they’ve collected from hundreds of clients using their tools.
How confident are you that when you pull a report on source of hire from any
single or combination of technologies tracking your data that you have
accurate information without considerable human effort being used to adjust
the report results using data not yet integrated?
33. “We have source codes attached to our job postings on all job sources. This
automatically translates as a prepopulated "How did you hear about this job" on the
candidate's application. The recruiters then verify this when speaking with the
candidates. A monthly report is pulled from [ATS] analyzing these
application/source of hire sources. A quarterly report is pulled together for the
Global Talent Acquisition team to review.”
“We do use SOH data as an element of ROI when contracts are up for JBs. We
also use it with applicant data to track SM site activity. (We have regional brand
ambassadors and are aggressive in getting the Brand front and center.) For a big
pic we know that about 40% of positions are filled internally - that leaves 60% for
external - of that 60% roughly 35% are referrals, leaving 25% spread over SM and
JBs. (Rehires, UR hires can fall under other sources) SOH data comes from
candidate application - a candidate can have multiple sources across multiple
applications in a given time period.”
“Source of hire data is collected in our ATS, and is used to analyze recruiter usage
of sourcing channels and sourcing channel investments. We have some concerns
over the accuracy of our source data - correct source data is sometimes lost when
moving a candidate from one req to another, and candidates often alter their
source of hire during the recruitment process. Looking to improve our reporting this
year.”
“Track SOH through our Recruiting Analytics team.”
“We use [ATS] and we are implementing (recruiting marketing) platform to help us
better capture source of hire.”
“Track all media and social performance and use to allocate where and how much to
put our $”
“Collect via self-ID by candidate in ATS but we have the Recruiter confirm actual
source recorded in our data. We use SOH data to drive budget for best ROI.”
“Information is taken from the ATS on a quarterly basis, reviewed, and analyzed.”
“By the applicant identifying it on their application.”
“We ask for a form to be completed by recruiter or staffing specialist at the end of the
process to identify a set list of categories and sources. Our training has focused on
looking at source codes, phone screen notes or applications to identify the best option
for source.”
“Through Applicant tracking, embedded source URL, LinkedIn metrics, etc. Challenge
with questions above is that while the candidate may have heard about SCE through
TV, Radio ads, they select our website for the specific job so accuracy is not there.”
“We need to reset on how we report this b/c the belief is that it is nearly completely
unreliable data from our ATS”
Please describe briefly how you collect, analyze and use source of hire data...
34. “Third party vendor [name] collects all front end applicant tracking information.
Monthly ATS extract is sent to complete the candidate pipeline. Our recruiters
choose from a pick-list the general source of hire category when completing the
offer letter information.”
“ATS data capture and reporting.”
“Work with our media firm, [name], to tag all sources and give them a feed of all
hires to calibrate source.”
“Directly from our Applicant Tracking System.”
“Combine Google Analytics, [Vendor] and [ATS] data to come up with source of
hire as well as source of influence. I trust the data but there is significant human
intervention to create shareable reports.”
“We rely on applicants to complete the source of hire option when applying; we are
not currently tracking via hard coding on requisitions where the applicant comes
from, therefore our data is only as accurate as what the applicant selects.”
“We use our ATS but also query our hires directly.”
“Pull ATS reports. Verify report data with Recruiters. Unable to track multiple
sources. Candidates have the ability to self identify which is not always
reliable/accurate.”
“Reports from our ATS and reports from those we have contract with. Of course we
look at ROI and also does the tool contribute to building pipeline.”
“Through tracking codes in [ATS]. Create source effectiveness report to review
applicants, interviews, offers and hires by source type. Use to determine ROI of
investment, strategy for future investments and agency usage.”
“We ask the candidates- we embed the source in the link etc…”
“We don't currently. Our market has been mostly regional and people applying at our
career site. Wi, IL, MI, MN.”
“We collect from the candidate at point of profile creation and then on each job they
apply to. We bundle our ATS sources into two levels - top level would be things like
(internet, referrals, professional associations) and the second level would be granular
within each level. Some of our vendors will supply candidate detail with their monthly
metric summaries. However, we don't always agree with their methods. For instance,
LinkedIn claims they are the source for more hires than we would attribute back to
them.”
“[ATS], company registration database
Our SOH data is not very accurate. It is currently collected, analyzed and updated
monthly by a Program Manager who has source reporting as one of his
responsibilities.”
Please describe briefly how you collect, analyze and use source of hire data...
35. “Less money into traditional job boards, more money into social media and
proactive sourcing capabilities. More money on diversity/inclusion initiatives.”
“In general - don't think spending will change - just a general comment that as
social media continues to gain strength as a means of branding - source of hire (as
a direct line) becomes less clear.”
“Significant investment in building and leveraging our new Talent Community.
Continues focus on referrals. Decreased spend on traditional job boards and job
aggregation sites.”
“Will shift our spend based on data collected and tracked for each media and social
campaign.”
“No change.”
“Have a broady set of tools, and not all in one basket, like LinkedIn. Continue to
invest in social media, and sample more.”
“Have recruiters complete SOH for every role they fill.”
“Job Boards and Global Linkedin licenses.”
“Improve source tracking.”
“The goal is to use less agency partners. In order to do this, we need more qualified
applicants to apply on their own, or our internal sourcing team to be more effective.
We have hired on an additional contractor for our sourcing team. We have made
changes to our posting contracts, got rid of or changed the contracts with the lowest
ROI, while keeping a presence in specialty markets (veteran disability, etc.).”
“Focus is on employee referrals this year.”
“Look at replacing some LinkedIn spend with other engines (Gild, Entelo, etc). Will
review Glassdoor price increase. Did not renew in 2014, used in 2013, will review
difference. Continue to use Findly Smartbuy with media.”
“Increase in Sourcing and Scouting within Target areas of need.”
“Moving to Google Analytics as our source of truth for SOH data. Moving away from
last touch attribution model that ATS' offer.”
“Researching recruitment firm use; more focus with military, diversity and college
recruitment. Plan to spend the same as this year.”
“Increasing our brand awareness through Social Media and referrals”
“New ATS with ability to track multiple sources. Force automated reporting of source
and potentially limiting or taking away ability for candidate to self identify.”
What specifically do you plan to change about your recruiting strategy to
strengthen or shift your sources of hire over the next year? Where will you
spend more or less money?
36. “This is not a high priority for us this year, but something we will look at in the
future.”
“Implement HRIS so that we can determine what advertising means are the most
