What do you do if you're a mid-career recruiter struggling to attract diverse talent?
I find that many of us in the Talent space get accustomed to true and tried methods and sometimes forget to break the mold. Starting my career on the agency side, I found a lot of success going against the grain and finding talent through non traditional sites like meetup, foursquare and social sites. I joined networking groups, attended countless events and invested a ton of time in researching schools and trade organizations. Diversify your sourcing strategy to find the diversity you are looking for!

You’re looking for a way to break into retail operations. How can temporary work help you get there?
Temporary roles in retail hold untapped potential for career growth. As a seasoned Talent Acquisition Executive in retail, I've seen firsthand how temporary positions can propel individuals toward permanent roles. Many start as hourly associates, yet with dedication, they rise through hard work and positive attitudes. Temporary work offers invaluable experience in retail operations. Individuals learn customer interactions, inventory management, and sales strategies firsthand. Investing in temporary workers' development fosters a skilled and motivated workforce, creating a culture of empowerment and inclusivity. In embracing temporary work, we unlock pathways to success, nurturing talent and shaping the future of retail operations.

What are the best ways to find and keep top talent?
In this day and age, it is imperative that talent acquisition professionals really take the approach of marketing versus just recruiting. I wrote a piece on the importance of recruiting like a marketer that you can check out here: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/elevating-candidate-experience-while-navigating-talent-victor-herrera?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_ios&utm_campaign=share_via One must also understand that the candidate journey does not end at the acceptance of the job offer. Our employees are customers. You must market to them the same way you do to external candidates. Although people have different motivators, a common motivator for most is growth and marketing growth opportunities to our employees is paramount.
