When creating a talent acquisition strategy, I begin by understanding the company’s goals and the specific hiring needs of each department. This entails collaborating with leadership to define role requirements and developing targeted sourcing strategies that focus on attracting the right candidates, while continuously analyzing metrics to refine the strategy based on what's effective.

One successful campaign I led involved focusing on diversity hiring. By revamping our employer branding and utilizing targeted sourcing channels, we increased our diverse candidate pool by 30%. Consistent analytics monitoring allowed us to adjust our strategies rapidly, ensuring we met our hiring targets efficiently.

I consider several metrics important, including time to hire, quality of hire measured through performance and retention rates, candidate experience feedback, and source effectiveness. These metrics provide valuable insights that allow for informed adjustments to improve the recruitment process continually.

Ensuring a great candidate experience involves clear communication, timely feedback, and a transparent overview of the hiring process. I also advocate for personalized interactions, whereby we engage candidates throughout the journey, helping them feel valued and informed about their application status.

Additionally, utilizing advanced recruiting tools and AI-driven analytics helps identify and engage top talent that matches our criteria.
