# [Webinar] Recruiting Agility: Keeping your recruiting agile beyond a crisis

## How a strategic partner can help you adapt to hiring conditions during and post COVID-19

Many firms have rapidly adopted agile principles to react to the coronavirus crisis. Namely, they’ve been ditching bureaucratic planning processes and instead fast-tracking ideas, holding focused meetings, and empowering decisions at lower levels of the organization, as reported in a recent Harvard Business Review by Darrell Rigby of Bain & Company.

Agile principles are being adopted at every organizational aspect including hiring and recruiting. Because the talent market landscape is moving like a quick-sand during the coronavirus pandemic, agile recruiting is becoming imperative for success. 

Firms who partner with recruiting experts, like RPOs, find themselves best positioned to adapt to disruptions and uncertainly because of the agile nature of the RPO model. 

**In this dynamic panel discussion, RPO leaders discuss:**

- The current state of the labor market and employment
- Some of the disconnect between the supply and demand in talent
- How organizations are changing their recruiting practices in response to the pandemic
- What practices are likely to stick post the pandemic
- Tips on revisiting your recruiting process to ensure it stays current with the market situation
