Robert Half Real Talk with Adrienne Keally Hunt

I interviewed six outstanding candidates for a senior business management role this week. What stopped me in my tracks, making me want to jump up and applaud, was that each and everyone of them, when asked about their career aspirations, said they wanted to be happy in their role. Just that. Please take note employers, it's not a lot to ask but it means everything to many.

We kicked off the week with a strong start: from intake to placement in under two weeks. But speed isn’t the only goal. Precision is. Every candidate’s path looks different. Some searches move quickly, others take time. What doesn’t change is the level of care, strategy, and commitment behind each placement. When experienced professionals are positioned correctly and introduced thoughtfully, outcomes accelerate. For employers, that means a trusted hiring partner and less noise. For candidates, it means being seen for the value they bring. And the results speak for themselves.

In this episode, Mitch McDermott CEO & Founder of Talent Ascension Group, taks about the overlooked gap between HR-driven hiring and expensive C-level search. Mitch explains why volume-based recruiting fails for leadership roles, how his team “headhunts” largely employed candidates, and why they lead with the person—not the job—to create better fits and longer tenures.Learn more about Mitch at his website. https://lnkd.in/ghdqv5pW

I'm not a recruiter. But, for years, I've watched the very best organisations on Earth recruiting and selecting people. And I've noticed they do it VERY differently than most organisations. At the start of the process, they stack the chips in their favour. They create a queue of great candidates outside the door. How do they do it?
