Return to office policies have become one of the most divisive workplace topics of the post-pandemic era. Dina and Hilary tackle this controversial subject by examining how companies are making drastically different choices – from Spotify's bold "our employees are not children" remote-first stance to organizations mandating full five-day office attendance.

Have you experienced a return-to-office mandate? Share your thoughts on whether companies are effectively communicating the "why" behind their policies and what's working (or not) in your workplace!

Washington Health CHRO John Zubiena and Human's Zach Coffey share how their RPO partnership transformed hiring outcomes through data-driven decision-making and strategic metrics tracking.

➡︎ Watch the Presentation Here: https://youtu.be/T8IoWSOTIYg

===========================
Key Highlights
===========================

• Washington Health has reduced openings from 120 to 65 through their outsourced recruitment approach
• Time-to-fill stands as their most critical metric with weekly accountability meetings for positions showing no activity
• Current turnover rates are impressively low at 14.85% hospital-wide and 9.85% in nursing
• Balancing hiring speed with cultural fit remains a delicate challenge requiring manager engagement
• Service level agreements establish clear expectations: 48 hours to decide on candidates, 7 days to interview, 24 hours for post-interview decisions
• The "purple unicorn" problem occurs when managers seek perfect candidates instead of applying the 80/20 rule
• Seamless candidate experience maintained through dedicated recruiters using Washington Health branding
• Weekly data reviews in PowerPoint format identify bottlenecks and ensure accountability across the recruitment process
