Lou Adler contends that there is a dark side to high-technology recruiting. While it enables companies to hire people more efficiently, it prevents companies from hiring outliers. This is a serious problem since most of the strongest people are outliers. The strongest candidates for any job tend to be passive candidates, they tend to have a different mix of skills and experiences, they tend to be more diverse, and they don't want to follow 'traditional" hiring rules. Hiring these people requires a "high touch" intervention process. Did Lou make his case in his recent LinkedIn Talent Blog post?
