The Robot-Proof Recruiter

Finding and hiring the best talent has been and will continue to be a business imperative. The Robot-Proof Recruiter is an essential resource for talent acquisition professionals looking for best practices and proven guidance to stand out in a competitive recruiting market. I particularly loved the focus on building relationships with hiring managers, not something traditionally covered in a recruitment book but so necessary!

There's never been a more important time to re-evaluate our hiring processes and ask what's not working? Thankfully, Katrina Collier has already done that hard work for us through her latest book. The Robot-Proof Recruiter is an invaluable resource for recruitment professionals who still believe that authenticity beats algorithms. If you're struggling to maximize recruitment efforts in your organization or are looking to upskill your individual recruiting toolkit in a meaningful way, this is the book to pick up and implement.

I didn't think it could get better, but the second edition of The Robot-Proof Recruiter is a must-read business book for the modern recruitment professional. Highly practical, enjoyable, pulling no punches, and engaging, this is a real page-turner. Read this book - and become a recruiter worth talking to.

Any recruiter who doesn't own a copy of The Robot-Proof Recruiter is doing themselves a disservice. In the world that we now find ourselves in, where the majority of our human-to- human interactions happen online, great recruiters are standing out from good recruiters by being more human. If you want to be a great recruiter, you need to own a copy of this book and read it regularly. I am amazed at how much more value Katrina has squeezed into this second edition.

The Robot-Proof Recruiter is a masterclass in understanding the modern-day recruiting process. Whether you are in an agency or in-house, have been recruiting for 2 weeks or 30 years, understanding the impact of technology, branding and candidate psychology is essential for success. Katrina covers everything from building strong relationships with hiring managers to understanding how to create a community to generate referrals.
Many have boldly claimed that technology will replace the recruiter and although technology has made some parts of recruiting easier the truth is we are all human and that gives us the ability to remain robot-proof.
Katrina, thank you for writing this manual for success and bettering our recruitment community and industry! I will keep coming back to this resource over and over, as will many.
