  • How increasing your career site conversions can save you 50% on job board spend
    Jun 26 2025
    Today's guest on the High Volume Hiring Podcast is Sam Fitzroy, co-founder and CEO of Dalia. Some of our listeners may also know Sam from his work at was then a little start-up called Indeed and, later, TheMuse. Cohosts Jeanette Leeds and Steven Rothberg of College Recruiter job search site talk with Sam about the markedly different conversion rates employers see from candidates who come from organic (free) sources such as Google, Bing, and ChatGPT versus from sponsored (paid) sources such as job boards like Indeed, LinkedIn, and College Recruiter. We also talk about how it is important to treat those candidates differently. For example, Dalia's data showed that it didn't help better candidates from sponsored sources into applicants or hires, but it had a massive, beneficial impact on those from organic sources. So, for most clients, Dalia will recommend jobs and request emails and mobile numbers from candidates who are about to exit without applying if those candidates came from organic, but not sponsored, sources. Today's employers, particularly those hiring at scale, need an "all of the above" strategy, where they don't rely just on job boards, or just on SEO, or just on a better ATS experience. And products like Dalia fit very nicely into creating a better ATS experience for candidates without taking anything away from the recruiter experience. Learn more about your ad choices.

  • The battle of the bots: Tools for screening vs applying en masse
    Jun 12 2025
    For decades, employers have used more and more technology that is more and more sophisticated to allow them to sift through more and more job applications. But there's been a fundamental change in the playing field: candidates are now using similar technology to allow them to apply to more and more jobs. Cohosts Jeanette Leeds and Steven Rothberg of College Recruiter job search site welcome to the High Volume Hiring Podcast our guest, Andrew Gadomski of Aspen Analytics. He discussed how these competing tools interact, why candidates are using tech to apply to jobs, and how employers should respond. Oh, and you won't want to miss Andrew's brilliant idea for how Hilton and Marriott Hotels might, in a way that surprised us, be a big part of the solution. Learn more about your ad choices.
