11. Recruiting in the Age of Googlization by Ira S Wolfe
Notable Quote: “It’s not just that jobs are changing, but job classifications are changing too. A popular estimate suggests that 65% of children entering primary school today will ultimately end up working in completely new job types that don’t exist.”
The internet changed the nature of recruiting, and hiring continues to change as new technology develops and emerges. In Recruiting in the Age of Googlization, Ira Wolfe makes a case for updating hiring practices in response to the exponential change accelerated by tech innovations. Change is constant in the high-tech modern landscape, and recruiters need to learn, grow, and adapt regularly to stay competitive. The book touches on concepts like VUCA (volatility, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity) and the psychology of change. The goal of Recruiting in the Age of Googlization is to reframe the recruitment process and propose more effective strategies to reach qualified candidates. The book helps professionals build a modern recruitment toolkit in an era when Google algorithms determine the likelihood of candidates and hirers connecting.
