Talent Density is underrated. When I was at Coinbase and Scale AI everyone there was impressive in their own right it was hard to not notice. It's why both companies grew so quickly: talent density + product market fit is unstoppable as most companies are constrained by talent.

Why are candidates dropping out of the hiring process? The latest data from Recruiter.com report reveals the top 3 ("shocking") reasons: 1️⃣ Application process too long or complex (41%) 2️⃣ Poor candidate experience (32%) 3️⃣ Seeking hybrid or remote roles (32%) For me, this isn’t shocking at all. Every single day, I see great candidates being lost because employers create overly complex application processes. We had a case where a client required 7 interviews.....

Recruiters are optimistic about job growth and recruiting demand for 2025 🙌 Despite concerns about economic uncertainty and continued fears of a recession, 7 in 10 recruiters remain optimistic about what’s to come. According to Recruiter.com's Future of Talent Acquisition and Recruitment 2025 report: ✅ Almost 1 in 3 respondents reported that they plan to increase TA headcounts ✅ More than 1 in 3 plan to hire more recruiters in the next 12 months ✅ Less than 40% report planned budget cuts, suggesting continued hiring demand The optimism among hiring professionals, combined with payroll starts and BLS forecasts, suggests that the job market remains resilient. So, while caution is always prudent, reports of a hiring downturn appear to be greatly exaggerated 👀 “Our forward looking demand is more about strategic hiring than it is about a big increase in net new headcount. The size of our TA team will remain stable, so our primary path to improvement is to increase our operational effectiveness. Table stakes for recruiter success include strong sourcing expertise and the discipline to self-monitor and continuously seek to improve upon key performance indicators.” - Amy Cropper, VP of Global Talent Acquisition, Tricentis
