Recruiters sit on more data, market insight, and talent intelligence than most hiring managers realize. The real skill isn't pushing back—it's using that to influence.
In this first part of a two-part series on Behind the Search, we sit down with executive search expert Abhay to talk about what it takes to build real trust and impact with hiring managers.
That's why we're diving into:
👉 Influencing hiring managers with data instead of opinions
👉 Running dual intake meetings to calibrate expectations early 👉 Knowing which battles to fight (and which to let go)
👉 Rolling out evidence-based hiring across a resistant organization
Abhay has spent over a decade across sourcing, TA leadership, and executive search—from mapping org charts in Dubai to building recruitment engines from scratch.
If you've ever walked into a hiring meeting unsure how to make your case—this episode is for you.
Part 2 drops in a month, when we flip the lens and talk to a CTO about working with recruiters from the other side.
