This is just a niggle but I think we hear that “hiring is the worst part of my job” far too often.
If anyone in your organization feels this way, you might take a look at deeper seeded issues.
Hiring is one of the most important responsibilities that any employee and certainly any leader has. Only using an aggregator (Zip Recruiter etc) to sort job seekers in buckets is not a best practice. They are not the most qualified or attractive candidates, are actively looking, and there is a reason they are available.

Observations of a Corporate Headhunter:
In the past, the Malayan Dayaks were feared for their ancient tradition of fierce headhunting practices....
After conversion to Islam or Christianity and anti-headhunting legislation by the colonial powers the practice was banned and disappeared, only to resurface in the late 90s.
Corporate Dyaks now roam the hallways and social corridors looking for only the very best talent on the PLANET !
