Show Notes

SAP has over 100,000 employees, operates in nearly every country on earth, and generates revenue in the tens of billions. So when their Global Head of Talent Discovery says the old way of hiring isn't working anymore, it's worth paying attention.

In this episode of Talent All Stars, Eric Goldstein explains why SAP ditched "talent acquisition" as a concept, how they're building a skills-based hiring engine from the inside out, and why the real cost of a vacant role has nothing to do with the recruiting fee.

You'll also hear:

  • How Eric makes the business case to a CFO to invest in the Talent Discovery function.
  • What AI is doing for early-career proximity at a global enterprise
  • The interviewing technique he uses to find out who actually knows their stuff
