The Hiring Factory: How Great Companies Win the Best Talent — Book Launch + Talk
Why would a candidate choose a $750,000 offer over one worth $1.5 million?
How did one recruiting change add 2,751 candidates to a company’s pipeline—while another caused more than 20,000 candidates to leave, costing the company 2,000 hires in five months?
These outcomes may appear unrelated. They aren’t.
Most companies don’t have a series of hiring problems. They have a system that keeps producing hiring problems.
Join author Ryan Silvers for the launch of The Hiring Factory, an upcoming book that examines hiring through the lens of economics, game theory, systems thinking, cybernetics, and AI.
In this talk, we’ll explore:
Why some companies consistently attract and hire exceptional people while others struggle
How to increase candidate response and maintain engagement throughout the process
How to uncover and overcome the real reasons candidates hesitate, withdraw, or say no
How to identify the hidden constraints causing a hiring system to repeatedly fail
You’ll also discover how the ideas that gave rise to AI can help us understand and redesign the systems companies use to hire.
Ryan Silvers has spent more than 15 years as an executive recruiter and recruiting leader at companies including AWS, Meta, and Atlassian.
