Heather Thomas, Recruiter and HR Tech Consultant

The Recruiting Animal

@HeatherThomasSD -- LINKEDIN: 20+ yrs of recruiting and sourcing experience. Career hires around 5,000 directly sourced for lots of different industries (healthcare, manufacturing, engineering, agriculture). Worked in staffing, executive search, recruitment research, RPO, and corporate recruiting roles. The last 9 years I have had a front row seat to how HR Tech helped and hurt our profession. It needed to help us manage big data, but it hurt our ability to strengthen our people skills. I hacked my way into having influence by bringing data to recruitment strategy conversations.
