  • Breaking News: What ICIMS March Workforce Report reveals that BLS doesn't
    Mar 19 2026
    Trent Cotton of ICIMS joins us for the third time to discuss their just published Workforce Report. Trent breaks down the key findings, and also points out the mysteries of what we're seeing in the labor market. More employers are posting more jobs, which is great. Manufacturing is surprisingly strong, healthcare remains strong, but retail is weaker than we expected. Yet applications and hiring is also down. Are employers posting, interviewing, but deciding not to hire? Is that due to well-qualified candidates job hugging as they know their chances of being laid off are greater if they have the least tenure? Are candidates shifting to gig work? Cohosts Jeanette Leeds and Steven Rothberg of College Recruiter job search site dig into some of the details with Trent, and look forward to more reports like those at www.icims.com/resources.

  • Turnover is high in some industries. What can you do about it?
    Mar 19 2026
    A key reason some employers hire at scale is because of high turnover. Some turnover is to be expected, and often beneficial, but some should be avoided, and is detrimental. Today on the High Volume Hiring Podcast our cohosts, Jeanette Leeds and Steven Rothberg of College Recruiter job search site, talk with career expert Keith Spencer of Resume Now, which is part of BOLD and a sister company to CareerBuilder, Monster, FlexJobs, and other brands. Keith acknowledges that recruiters, HR, and others have some but not total control over the factors that lead to turnover, and that it can be difficult to make the changes necessary to reduce it, but there are ways to reduce unwanted turnover in almost every organization.

  • How to prioritize your recruitment marketing budget
    Mar 5 2026
    It is often said that recruitment marketing lags consumer marketing by five to 10 years. One reason for that is that consumer marketing budgets far exceed ours. That makes it far harder for us to pilot or A/B test and that holds back innovation. On today's episode of the High Volume Hiring Podcast, cohosts Jeanette Leeds and Steven Rothberg of College Recruiter job search site interview Dillon Hill, co-founder of marketing agency Cosmoforge. We talk about about he helped to save his 19 year old friend's life, how that led him into a career in marketing, and what that's taught him about marketing. We focus on how he breaks down the various components of marketing campaigns to identify what's broken and, therefore, how to prioritize limited resources.
