I was asked to be a provocateur
As a provocateur… my goal is to make you think
2 quick examples of being provocative
Name the most innovative firms in business today?
SecondLife, Genentech, Wikipedia, MySpace, Yelp, Microsoft, Craigslist, Intel, Cisco, Pixar and Oracle
What do they have in common?
And #2, what is this? And where is it located? Swiss
Apple, Google, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube…

My role for today
I’m from “the other coast”, where firm’s are willing to do anything to capture the best talent
I’m here to expose you to some new possibilities… and perhaps to get you to consider whether your current approach is too conservative in today’s competitive world of talent
How about 2 quick examples to illustrate our different “other coast” approach >

Competitors use more aggressive approaches here (Yahoo)
Recruiting posters first at Yahoo's entrance & restrooms…

and then across the street

We also look for “different” kinds of people
What do these people have in common?
Gates Ellison Jobs Larry/ Zuckerberg Sergey
“Other coasters”, & college dropoutsbillionaires

The 2 coast comparison is a…
tradition based “it’s not broken/ we have always done it this way” vs. a “assume all tools become obsolete, so continually seek out something new”
(80% fail and then learn)
![Page 8: The Expanding Role of Recruiters in Strategic Talent Management](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061105/54428793afaf9ff7098b4654/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)

The other coast approach requires you to move past your comfort zone
It’s important to realize that recruiting is a form of fishing…
And you are not likely to “catch” your fair share of top talent if you use a
And your competitors… Have more aggressive strategiesNewer / more effective fishing gearMore advanced technology And better skilled fishermen/ women
![Page 9: The Expanding Role of Recruiters in Strategic Talent Management](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061105/54428793afaf9ff7098b4654/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

What are the consequences of using outdated tools?
How can anyone outperform… if they are using 1987 tools?
![Page 10: The Expanding Role of Recruiters in Strategic Talent Management](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061105/54428793afaf9ff7098b4654/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
11
What are the 9 characteristics of the “other coast” recruiting approach?
1.A WOW and people virally pass it on
2.Measurably better results
3.Aggressive to keep talent competitors off guard
4.Hard to copy by competitors (Competitive advantage)
5.Personalized or customized6.Measurably faster Prom
7.Uses technology and metrics
8.High ROI not just cheaper9. It is assumed that it will become obsolete
(constantly looking for replacements) (Newspaper ads)

8 reasons for expanding the role of recruiters
Benefits to the firm of an expanded recruiting role
1.The skill set of recruiters have broad applications
and benefits to other functions
2.It provides agility, which is needed because rapid
changes in business needs require all functions… to
be flexible
3.Lean employee levels in other “still busy” functions
require “peak time” or overload help
4.“Fresh eyes” can spot problems/ opportunities
![Page 49: The Expanding Role of Recruiters in Strategic Talent Management](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061105/54428793afaf9ff7098b4654/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
50
Reasons for expanding the role of recruiters
Benefits to the recruiting function include:
5.The need to maintain up-to-date recruiting capabilities (and staff) for key jobs even during slack times
6.The need to be able to explode “out of the blocks” when the turnaround comes
7.The cross training, the expanded contacts and their better understanding of their internal customers… will make them better recruiters
8.Increased job security for the recruiting staff

55
Recruiting related possibilities
Within recruiting, resources can be shifted to:Executive recruiting – do more executive recruiting internally
Alumni network – build it for sales referrals, employee referrals and boomerang re-hires
Contract labor – utilize recruiters to find contract / contingent labor… which will add needed flexibility if the upturn is short-lived (MS 54%)
![Page 55: The Expanding Role of Recruiters in Strategic Talent Management](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061105/54428793afaf9ff7098b4654/html5/thumbnails/55.jpg)
56
Recruiting related possibilities
Within recruiting, resources can be shifted to:Provide external succession plan candidates – help your organization expand its succession bench strength possibilities by identifying external candidates and adding them to the plan
Work with compensation to improve offers – work with comp. during this lull to improve the speed and the “accuracy” of the offers that they provide
