Talent poolBenedict Gnaniah

Talent communities are more effective for hiring than talent pools. A talent community is like an intimate campfire gathering where an industry's experts, job seekers, employees, and others regularly share and collaborate. It allows multidimensional insights into candidates in a natural setting beyond resumes. Building talent communities engages both active and passive candidates and highlights their expertise, mentoring, and reputation within the community. This provides a more well-rounded view of candidates to make better hiring decisions than talent pools which are just static applicant databases.

Benny explains to Nathan that he will not attend an upcoming social media conclave because it is exam time for students and past events of this nature have been used by students to curry favor with professors for better exam performance rather than providing valuable insights.
