Scott SchremsData Analyst • dv01
Our workshop and experiences with Alana will no doubt go down in history as one of the more important moments we have had as an organization.
Jonathan WarrickDirector Of Data Solutions • dv01 FinTech Innovator
Alana and I worked together, her impact was, simply put, transformative. We are at the heart of silicon valley. I cannot recommend her more!
Juan Pablo DellarroquelleSVP of Engineering • Medallia and Silicon Valley Innovator
Alana is the perfect person to guide you Recruiting is perhaps the most difficult, yet important, challenge facing any new company. It was definitely the thing I underestimated the most as a first time founder. I find it crazy that so many companies "wing it" or look for easy shortcuts instead of rolling up their sleeves, invest in developing a process and do the hard work it requires.

Why Do I Need A
Talent Acquisition Strategy?

The Decision Lies Upon Leadership

Early intentional investment in a bullet proof strategy and training is the #1 way to empower your company to succeed.

Fact:

Candidate Experience

Creating an intentional experience for your candidates will differentiate you from the market and will drastically increase your close rate and reputation.

Fact:

Hiring success is in the hands of your non-experts

Having untrained interview teams can deplete your margins faster, cost you time, happiness, and ultimately, your culture.

Fact:

It's not about more resumes

Quantity does not deliver quality, or faster results. This desperate "Old Model" is a method of the past. Humans want to be treated like humans. Quality always wins.

Fact:

Your People are your #1 Asset

Your company's success depends on one factor: Your People. Investing in your current employees to be capable of hiring your future culturally aligned teams of high performers, is a must if you want to succeed.

Fact:

Time Kills Offers, and Success

The market moves fast. The best talent moves faster. You can't afford to have an inefficient process and be caught behind the curve, and your competition.

Fact:

Lost or mis-hires cost more than you know

Bad hires turn into coztsic culture depletors and, most of the time, turn over. One mishire costs more than the cost of 2 placement fees.
