The FBI’s journey to Modern Recruiting
summary
FBI identifies a hiring crisis, builds a dedicated data team, and models that 16,000–20,000 applicants are needed to fill Quantico seats; it shortens the application, adds automated candidate emails and dashboards, rewrites the Phase One test after a new job analysis, retrains interviewers with unconscious bias training, and adopts LinkedIn/Twitter/YouTube outreach with outside partners (LinkedIn, Accenture, Horn Creative). Results: applications triple and the candidate pool reaches 47% diverse / 34% female per the uploader.
