The Staffing Show

We’re excited to introduce the second season of The Staffing Show podcast, featuring Timothy Robbins, Vice President at [Monster](https://www.monster.com/); Matt Martino, Director of Digital Strategy at [Medix](https://www.medixteam.com/); and Tara Sprakel, Chief Marketing Technologist, and Ryan Paulson, CTO at [Fusion Medical Staffing](https://www.fusionmedstaff.com/). Kicking off our season, we sat down with Mary B. Lucas, Chief Talent Officer at [Supplemental Health Care](https://www.shccares.com/), and author of *Lunchmeat and Life Lessons: Sharing a Butcher’s Wisdom*. She talks about her father’s “come back sauce,” what it really means to succeed in the people business, and the future of staffing.

In this episode, Staffing Hub Editor-in-Chief Caitlin Delohery interviews Adam Conrad, a veteran recruiter and founder of [Great Recruiters](https://www.greatrecruiters.com/), a job candidate and reputation management platform specifically designed for recruiters and staffing firms. Adam brings 18 years of recruiting to the table and a powerful desire to change the recruiter stereotype. Recruiters have been getting a bad rap for decades. You might have heard recruiters are slow to respond or they make job promises they can’t keep. And while you know this isn’t even close to the full picture, Adam brings practical advice on how to authentically humanize recruiters and the recruiting process. Hint: it takes a little bravery and a lot of active listening. (Oh, and coaching Little League might help, too.)

In this episode, Staffing Hub President David Folwell interviewed Maurice Fuller, staffing technology expert and founder of the [StaffingTec Conference & Expo](https://nashville.staffingtec.com/) at [Bullhorn Engage](http://engage.bullhorn.com/) earlier this year. Fuller brings his years of recruiting experience and his tech knowledge to the table, forecasting that the staffing and recruiting space is going to change as much in the next decade as it did in the past 25 years. Think about how different the world was in 1993 -- maybe you were sending faxes, experiencing your first PDF, or hearing the word *SPAM* for the first time. Now, imagine that amount of change compressed into the next decade. Fuller’s here to help give you practical tips on how to make the smart tech choices that will keep your staffing firm ahead of the curve.

In this episode of The Staffing Show, David Folwell, the President of Staffing Hub, interviews Vinda Souza, VP of Marketing Communications at Bullhorn, about the staffing industry's diversity problem, the power of reskilling, and growing a company culture based on dignity, respect, and humor (just call it the anti-Dilbert method).

In this episode, I’m at The Travelers Conference, the only conference held just for travel nurses and healthcare staffing agencies. I interview Kyle Schmidt, founder of BluePipes. We talked about what frustrated Schmidt when he was a recruiter, how healthcare staffing firms can make their travelers happier, and the two drunk kids who started Facebook in their dorm room.

In this episode, I’m at [The Travelers Conference](https://travelersconference.com/), the only conference held just for travel nurses and healthcare staffing agencies. I interview Earl Dalton, CNO at [Health Carousel](https://healthcarousel.com/), minutes after he gave an engaging conference talk on managing team conflict in nursing. We talked about the role of staffing firms in developing travel nurses, how different hospitals will be impacted by the nursing shortage, and how agility will help healthcare staffing firms survive.

In this episode, I'm at [The Travelers Conference](https://travelersconference.com/), the only conference held just for travel nurses and healthcare staffing agencies. I sat down with Matt Pierce, the co-founder and CEO of Trusted Health, in a noisy hotel lobby (forgive the racket of an endless ice machine in the background at the beginning). We talked about authentic leadership, building nurse advocacy into the very DNA of healthcare staffing, and how predictive analytics can help hospitals meet the growing demands of an aging population.

In this episode, Caitlin Delohery, Editor in Chief of Staffing Hub, talks to Jason Leverant, President and COO of the AtWork Group. Here, Leverant shares the secret to AtWork's consistent double-digit growth, their insane focus on service, and the next big trend in recruiting communication (is it carrier pigeons?).

In this episode, we sat down to chat with Gerry Gadoury, the Founder & Principal Consultant at Influence Understood. Gerry spends a lot of time thinking about how poor connections causes breakdowns in the recruiting process -- and what to do about it. Here, he shares his thoughts on how to recruit for stronger relationships, how to coach your sales and recruiting teams to abandon transactional thinking, and what it will really take to survive the robots.

Caitlin Delohery, Editor in Chief of Staffing Hub, sits down with Brendan Courtney, President and CEO of HealthTrust Workforce Solutions, to chat about their wild four-year growth rate, their innovative holistic approach to hospitals' staffing woes, and their solution to the nursing skills gap.
