How to hire with purpose when every req feels urgent

A req that needed to be filled last week makes a close-enough candidate look very appealing. A quick fill can feel like a win, but it doesn't always turn into a hire who fits and grows with the team.

Varun Chandavakar, Senior Talent Acquisition Specialist at ZoomInfo, works through that tension in his own recruiting every day. In this session, he explains how he hires on purpose: pinning down what a role truly calls for, widening the search beyond the obvious, and keeping hiring managers and candidates in mind throughout.

• How to turn an intake conversation into a clear profile of the person the role needs
• Where to find strong candidates whose titles differ from the job description but whose experience fits
• Ways to keep hiring managers on the same page while the search keeps moving
• How to protect the candidate experience when you're carrying a lot of reqs
