Zusammenfassung

Data-driven Senior Talent Acquisition Partner & Nerd with in-depth Talent Acquisition Tools, Systems & Process knowledge that delivers candidate-centered, cost-efficient, and best-in-class recruitment process to attract, find, engage, thoroughly select and ultimately win best-matching talent for the job. Hi there, Thomas here. I’m a binational guy from northern Germany who had to move out at 18 as I wanted to find the right career path for my skills. Three countries and seven cities later below is what I was able to reflect on. From a very early stage, my father kept asking me so many open questions about people and business that I was bound to come into a customer-centric, people-focused, and analytical job where I am today. When I can transfer the business needs of a manager who wants to enrich his / her team with a new puzzle piece I am deeply excited about designing an appealing, easy, automated, authentic, and fast process, system structure, and experience that gets talent to us in the most efficient & cost-effective way possible. Their experience must be as easy as ordering online. Afterwards, I love reflecting on each and every aspect of their candidate journey to build a best-in-class experience for hiring managers, candidates and hopefully soon-to-be colleagues. What you should know about me - Absolut foodie, Coffee / travel enthusiast + Crossfit Beginner - ENFJ-A + 98D, 65I (DISC) - I funded two companies (one operative UG and one holding UG) as side-hustle. Given that I am sourcing nerd, I had to add a keyword list: sourcing, active sourcing, Boolean, recruiting process, talent acquisition, candidate management, candidate experience, recruiting metrics, recruiting technology, recruiting automation, video interviewing, virtual recruiting events, applicant tracking system (ATS), recruitment marketing, recruitment events, recruitment campaigns, recruitment analytics, talent acquisition | Indeed A/B tests: indeed job search, indeed recruiting, indeed employer branding, indeed candidate experience, indeed recruitment marketing, indeed recruitment advertising, indeed recruitment branding, indeed recruitment events, indeed recruitment campaigns, indeed recruitment analytics A/B tests: split testing, conversion rate optimization, user experience testing, analytics, data-driven decision making, Career site optimization, candidate experience, career site analytics, career site design, behavioral interview, situational interview, competency - based interview.
