Episode 51: Courtside TA conversation with Brooke Toole at Dicks Sporting Goods

On today’s episode, host Ryan Dull is joined by Brooke Toole, Director of Talent Acquisition - Corporate, University Relations, Gamechanger at DICK’S Sporting Goods, to discuss how her team is using technology as part of a healthy workplace culture.

To implement digital tools well, Brooke likes to keep a few important principles in mind:

  • Digitization is the way of the future and companies must adopt proper tech tools in order to stay relevant.

  • Having a dedicated IT team represented in leadership meetings is a fantastic culture-building tool.

  • Regular engagement with digital tools builds familiarity and streamlines workflows.

  • Open communication is an essential skill for recruiters in all industries.

  • Honesty with hiring managers builds trust and makes teams more effective.

  • Everyone has their own recruiting niche and it’s healthy to admit when you’re out of your depth and recruiting in an unfamiliar industry.

  •  The best recruiters are the ones that have the healthiest relationships with their hiring managers.

This merging of technology with workplace culture is a fascinating glimpse into the future of recruiting teams and their relationship to technology.

Sagemark HR can help you:

✔ Improve your talent practices and make better, more informed people decisions.

After 20+ years of experience leading Recruiting and Talent Acquisition across a wide variety of industries, I've seen enough hires (over 100,000 to date) to know that hiring decisions truly can make or break an organization.

✔ Identify opportunities to not only improve your talent practices but also deliver tangible business results.

We understand every organization is different, and there’s no one-size-fits-all magic solution. So we listen first and identify the gaps and sticking points in your current process before ever recommending a solution.

✔ Bridge the gap from “traditional” to modern recruiting, without the painful learning curve.

We believe recruiting, talent, and HR technology is a deep well of untapped business potential, and our mission is to help you identify and implement those hiring tools in a way that works for you.
