There is no doubt that the COVID-19 pandemic was a complete shock for everyone. What started as small talk amongst friends and family spiraled into a nationwide pandemic. Offices and schools were closed, remote work and school became the new normal, and staying safe from the virus became the main priority. For recruiters and talent acquisition professionals, their already busy jobs were thrown into unprecedented chaos when the COVID-19 pandemic hit the U.S. in early March of 2020. While some recruiters had to step into overdrive to hire for already hard-to-fill positions, others were suddenly forced to stop hiring processes altogether. Other recruiters were let go or had their jobs put on pause for weeks or months on end. The majority transitioned from in-office positions to working from home with little-to-no training and learning new technologies while also helping hiring managers understand how to juggle remote interviewing, recruitment, and onboarding. 

I think we can all agree that, for any organization to succeed, it’s essential to recruit, hire and manage the very best people. And that begins by developing the best processes for these critical functions.

Great Place to Work® has honored Hueman as one of the 2021 Best Workplaces in Consulting & Professional Services™ for the 3rd time in a row, making them one of the best companies to work for in the country. 

Events in 2020 led to the Black Lives Matter movement taking to the streets—both literally and metaphorically—calling for systematic change across our nation. In response to the movement’s calls for change, Hueman knew that Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) within its walls needed a real focus. So, amid social strife, heartbreak, and amidst a global pandemic, Hueman began to make a plan.

Recruitment and hiring are crucial to the culture and success of a company. However, if you’re like many Human Resources (HR) and Talent Acquisition (TA) leaders, you know it can be incredibly time-consuming. Not to mention it is not always at the top of the to-do list amongst other projects, yet it is one of the most imperative organizational functions. Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) is a game changer for many organizations whose HR and/or TA departments are spread thin and need to focus on other important tasks.

It's 2020, we all know the impact social media has. But, do you know how it will benefit your recruitment techniques? We’re here to help!

Today, ClearlyRated announced that we've received their 2020 Best of RPO Award!

Talent acquisition (TA) differs from recruitment. TA is a long-term, continuous strategy to acquire top talent for your company vs. recruitment where you are filling short-term vacancies with active candidates. To have the best TA strategy, you must possess a good understanding of how talent acquisition operates—and why it matters.
