Handshake’s talent acquisition team is comprised of seasoned professionals who know the importance of both efficiency and data to the hiring process. They needed the bandwidth, and the data-driven insights, to be stellar business partners to their hiring managers—to shift recruiting’s role in those relationships from an administrative to a strategic one. Enter Gem.

The Recruiting Operations team at Gusto talks about how they use Gem for better visibility into full-funnel metrics, for a sense of how the team is trending in its diversity efforts, for building a database of qualified talent so they're not starting each new search from scratch, for forecasting how a new job req will act based on previous open roles, and more.

Effective recruiter-hiring manager relationships increase productivity and decrease time-to-hire. They drive better hiring decisions, boost your talent brand, and give TA greater visibility in the business as a whole. What’s more, they’re a necessity at a time when TA must act as a strategic partner to the business—rather than a reactive support member—if the company is going to meet its hiring goals in this ultra-competitive market. Here's how to strategically collaborate with your HMs.

Watch this webinar as our Gems Maggie Hennessey, Sr. Sales + Solutions Recruiter, and Samantha Strom, Head of GTM Enablement, share their best practices for recruiter-hiring manager collaboration and how they’ve used the Gem platform to scale an enablement team from 0 to 4 in just 6 months.

At Gem, we understand that if there’s a pair that needs to come together as a power duo to make any given hire happen, it’s the recruiter and the hiring manager who oversees the team with the open role. We’ve built our product with that relationship in mind. Doing so has meant focusing on four core elements: speed, communication, collaboration, and visibility. Here’s how Gem supports those elements, allowing you to truly make hiring a team sport.

Webflow’s engineering managers are taking advantage of Gem, partnering with their recruiting teams in the process. Their VP of Engineering trained her managers on Gem, and says one of the metrics Gem has most impacted at the org—now that recruiting is truly a team sport—is candidate quality.

Talent Pipeline organizes active ATS candidates into a Kanban board and groups them by every stage in the process. From there, users can access key details, customize their view, and process candidates, with all actions automatically synced back to the ATS. In other words, Talent Pipeline operates as an interactive and collaborative hiring dashboard.
