Maximizing Talent Acquisition Efficiency Without Burning Out

The August 2025 jobs report shows just 22,000 jobs added nationwide, significantly below expectations and indicating a stalling labor market. Furthermore, unemployment is now at its highest since 2021. But a slower job market doesn’t mean talent is easier to find. Instead, recruiting teams are facing bigger candidate pools, wider skills gaps, and mounting pressure to deliver under multiple economic scenarios — including the possibility of a slowdown. As 2026 budget planning ramps up, talent leaders are being asked to do more with less, make smarter tech investments, and prove the ROI of every hiring decision.

In this webinar, we’ll break down what’s actually working for lean, effective TA teams right now. From building outbound strategies that don’t rely on increasingly expensive InMail to identifying which technologies can truly drive efficiency, you’ll get practical strategies for navigating today’s challenges while planning for what’s next. We’ll also cover how to strengthen workforce planning through reskilling, internal mobility, and better use of your existing tools — all without burning out your team.
