In this episode of Sourcing School, Ryan and Brian get to talk to Hillary Geissinger from You.com! She’s an army of one in her recruiting department, working to find employees for a search engine that’s changing the fundamentals of how people search. Hillary explains how reinventing recruiting for a lesser known brand can be difficult, especially when they’re trying to find unique candidates who want to change how the world “Googles.”
Hillary has a passion to find developers and designers that are passionate about making waves in this monopolized search industry. She also expresses how reinventing search for your organization is a challenge, but vital to getting brand awareness out there. Google has its merits, but there’s a fundamental problem with consolidating search towards one particular algorithm.
She has had a very unique and challenging recruiting experience, and despite it all, has learned how to navigate this space quite effectively.
Key takeaways on reinventing recruiting:
- How she builds a foundation of trust when scouting new hires to get to the bottom of people’s passion.
- How to break through those difficult recruiting communication walls to bring up your quality of hire.
- Where and how to un-earth top dev talent to become part of the “in crowd”
