Curious to know what recruiting in the military looks like? Spoiler: it’s not all that different from typical talent acquisition.

Jose Diaz talks about his time as a former recruiter for the US Air Force Reserve and shares the similarities and differences between military and civilian recruitment.  As the Director of TA for AION Management, Jose also discusses the importance of creating efficient candidate experiences and streamlining recruitment processes.

Tune in for expert insights about building efficient teams, leveraging technology, and the importance of listening to frontline employees.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Processes are Crucial to Operate Efficiently: To streamline recruitment, you need to have job descriptions, interview guides, and a solid workflow. Having a system in place is the best way to manage talent pools, especially in industries with high attrition rates.
• Be Intentional with Your Tech Stack: Choose an ATS program that best fits the organization’s needs. Having too many systems can be confusing, but having too little technology can be limiting.
• Shut Up and Listen: Leaders need to talk less and listen more. Ask feedback from frontline staff so you can identify issues and address bottlenecks to help achieve your organization’s goals.
