Top Recruiter's Tips on How to 'HireBetter' C-Suite Execs During the Pandemic

Guest: Kurt Wilkin, the Co-Founder and Chief Evangelist of HireBetter, a company that "harnesses the power of talent to solve business challenges." Kurt is also an active member and officer of YPO. Episode in a Tweet: Covid-19 disruption has created a richer than usual talent pool. Take advantage and upgrade your team where you need it the most. Quick Background: At the beginning of the year, CEOs were exploring every available option to find top talent during a very tight labor market. The workplace disruption that Covid-19 caused has changed that. If you need to fill an important leadership position in your company right now, the pool of available talent is deeper than it's been in quite some time. But don't think that means making a key hire is going to be easier. On the contrary, CEOs have to be even more careful that they're not letting sterling resumes and shiny smiles distract them from what's most important: hiring someone who is going to buy into your vision, enhance your culture, and help your company make BIG happen. On today's show, Kurt Wilkin discusses effective strategies for sourcing talent and the key considerations CEOs need to make when weighing short-term needs versus long-term goals.
