What Actually Drives Consistent Hiring Results?

Recruiting teams talk a lot about tools, outreach, and pipelines.

But turning all that sourcing activity into real, measurable hires?

That’s a different skill set.

On today’s episode of the ERE Recruiting Innovation Podcast, I sat down with Ravi Tandra, who’s built and led high-performing recruiting orgs that focus on performance, not just process.

What stood out in this conversation?

Ravi doesn’t just talk theory — he builds systems.

Systems that:

  • Balance volume with quality

  • Track the right metrics to spot breakdowns early

  • Align hiring managers and recruiters around a shared language

  • Deliver results without burning people out

🎧 We covered:

  • Why “volume” isn’t the enemy of quality

  • The sourcing metrics that actually matter

  • How to prevent pipeline breakdowns before they happen

  • What happens when recruiting and hiring finally sync up

This isn’t a hype episode. It’s a roadmap for anyone trying to scale without chaos.
