*This is not an exhaustive list of people-powered industries.
What are Common Characteristics of These Organizations?
Lean Talent Acquisition Teams
These companies typically include 50-500 employees, often operating with smaller hiring teams.
Ongoing Recruitment
There is a constant need to hire within these industries, both for new roles and backfill roles.
Culture Fit Assessment
There is a significant emphasis on culture fit and cross-functional collaboration during the hiring process.
Underinvestment in Hiring
While crucial to organizational success, HR and talent acquisition are often considered an afterthought.
The Unique Hiring Challenges People-Powered Organizations Face in Today’s Market
HR tech inefficiencies, fragmented coordination with stakeholders, and screening processes lacking structure are some of the most common challenges impeding your ability to hire great people.
"Easy Apply" and AI-generated Applications
The addition of these tools has increased applicant volume, but lowered engagement with and the overall quality of applications. It has also increased the difficulty of differentiating the top talent from lesser candidates.
Navigating the Distributed and Remote Workforce
While there are many benefits of a wider, more diverse talent pool, maintaining consistent hiring practices and culture alignment has become a large challenge as the distributed workforce has grown.
Budget Constraints and the "Do More With Less" Reality
HR and talent acquisition teams are often leaner in these organizations, which increases the reliance on hiring managers when recruiting while also ramping up the pressure on recruiters to move faster and make stronger hires with very little budget.
