1. Introduction

Welcome back to the nonprofit recruitment marketing podcast. This is your host, Ryan Kohler. Today, we're going to talk about one of the most powerful ways to dramatically increase the number of qualified applicants who apply for your jobs. I'll be honest with you, this is also the most overlooked thing in the last 15 years. I have probably presented this concept 1000 different times, I've recorded 1000 different videos and sent out 1000 different emails, all phrasing this in every possible way in hopes of getting the HR world and employers to get this one simple concept. And so I hope you'll take a minute to take a deep breath. Because this right here is the fundamental reason why most employers are struggling to recruit right now. And it's especially important for underdog employers and nonprofits. So let's jump right in.

And the number one thing that nonprofits and small organizations and anybody who's an underdog can do to change the entire results of their recruiting engine and their talent engine in their organization is to go back and clearly define their target, pick a narrow niche job seeker.

So you'll have to forgive a little bit of unprofessional bird noises in the background. But today, what we're going to drill into, is really to talk about the way you think about recruiting as a holistic part of your organization as not just a strategy.

Welcome to the nonprofit recruitment marketing podcast this your host, Ryan Kohler, CEO of applicant Pro. And today we're going to kind of zoom out and talk about the kind of overall strategy and way that nonprofits need to think about recruiting. Because at the end of the day, the number one mistake that nonprofits are making is by not having a vision, and really accepting their their spot in the marketplace for talent. And so this is a really good kind of high level intro to have your team LISTEN TO to have any budget your organization listened to, regardless of if they're in HR or not. If they play any part in the hiring process, any part in the management of setting the strategy or management of an organization, we need to understand where we fit in the marketplace and what strategies will work for us because there are ways to recruit great talent even as a non profit, but not if you approach it the wrong way.
