Why pay attention to Manager – Digital Strategy Seth Flater? For starters, he graduated Cum Laude with a mathematics degree, keeps a graphing calculator in his night stand and finds math jokes funny.

Key takeaways:
- While it’s good that employers are diving into data related to recruitment efforts, they need to look at the entire recruitment effort more holistically instead of viewing one vendor at a time and relying on simple division; there are many variables that can impact a cost-per-hire metric.
- Many job descriptions are still missing key elements such as company culture and benefits related to that role. The more it becomes a job seeker market, the more picky they can be. Companies need to approach recruitment like sales.
