A Skills-Based Recruiting Philosophy with Julie Flowers at Chevron

Episode notes

On this episode, host Ryan Dull is joined by Julie Flowers , Head of Global Talent Acquisition at Chevron , to hear about the changes in recruiting philosophy she’s championing. When discussing skills-based hiring, Julie shared the following advice: - Collaboration between departments is essential for TA leaders to implement an effective strategy. - There is no one-size-fits-all recruiting approach, as every candidate is unique. - Global hiring and synergies are critical to scale; however, organizations should still retain a local focus, with each region leveraging a global strategy while creating a customized approach locally, as appropriate. - Evaluating a candidate’s experience should always be done from the perspective of what skills that experience developed in the candidate and what skills are transferable. - Skills-based hiring helps TA leaders more effectively meet their organization’s unique talent needs. - Technology is a significant aid that helps TA professionals streamline candidate screening and matching candidates.
