    Aug 18 2025
    Recruiting isn’t one-size-fits-all—and nowhere is that clearer than when you move across industries. In this episode of Talentless, we dig into the nuances that shape how hiring actually works in different sectors. From the fast-paced world of tech to the highly credentialed healthcare field, from hospitality’s frontline brand-builders to the high-stakes demands of tech hiring, we break down what makes each industry unique—and why recruiters need to adjust their approach to succeed. Expect straight talk, sharp insights, and a few laughs along the way as we unpack how recruiters can recognize the rules of the game in each space and use that knowledge to deliver better hires, stronger relationships, and long-term wins. Listen wherever you get your podcasts and join the conversation about what it really takes to recruit across industries.

  • Managing the Manager

    Managing the Manager
    Aug 12 2025
    Recruiters aren’t just sourcing resumes — they’re managing expectations, coaching through bias, and sometimes dragging hiring managers across the finish line. In this episode of Talentless, we dig into the real work behind “managing the manager.” From setting clear timelines and pushing back on unrealistic requests to aligning on what “good” actually looks like, we discuss the soft skills and strategic grit it takes to run a hiring process that works. Whether you’ve had to teach someone how to interview (again) or you’re battling hiring freeze whiplash, this one’s for you. Because being a recruiter means you’re not just filling jobs — you’re managing people who think they know how to.

    Recruiters: Good, Bad, and Scammer
    Jun 23 2025
    Would you know if the recruiter sliding into your DMs was actually running a scam? This week on Talentless, we’re cracking open the recruiting ecosystem, from the elite talent whisperers changing lives to the shady scammers collecting resumes like Pokémon cards. There are good recruiters. There are lazy ones. And then there are straight-up predators. We’re naming the types, sharing receipts, and giving you the tools to know who you’re really dealing with. Hosts Desiree and Ashley unpack the red flags and green lights, sharing personal stories, real-world examples, and the messy middle ground we’ve all seen too often. We’ll walk through the recruiting spectrum, the strategic matchmakers, the ghosters and spammers, and the phishing frauds pretending to offer you your dream job for a fee.

This episode dives into the tension between business needs and hiring realities, and the creative (and sometimes chaotic) ways recruiters rise to the challenge. If you’ve ever chased a needle in a haystack or been expected to be one this one hits close to home. This episode is part vent session, part strategy huddle, and 100% recruiter realness.
