In today's #TalentHunters episode, host Vince Holt is joined by 45-year recruiting veteran, founder of The Marshall Plan and author of “The Phone Rang”, Bob Marshall. He shares where to focus our efforts if we want to thrive in this industry.  We might think technology is the greatest threat to the recruiting industry, but it isn’t in his opinion. The real issues we’re facing as an industry are a lot closer to home.    There are two types of jobs: can’t-help job orders and search assignments, and the majority of the industry can’t tell the difference.     Success comes from chasing the 4% of companies who truly need our services and recruiters are stuck chasing the 96% that waste their time.     Finding “Ace of Spades” clients and placements is the foundation of a solid desk. But most recruiters are avoiding the easiest way to find them - picking up the phone.     If we correct these 3 major issues, we can build businesses that last decades, and getting replaced by technology will never be an issue.     How do you separate bad job orders from the best opportunities? What’s the one question recruiters should ask more? How do you treat your desk as a manufacturing plant?  Interesting conversation and insights for our recruiting audience. #Recruiting #RecruiterLife #HR #Staffing #RecruitingTips https://lnkd.in/eD5vxxcW

Good stuff! It's always been about making the calls, the colder the better. I love how you speak of the "BAF" --that is where I cut my recruiting teeth 25 years ago. Thanks for sharing!
