🎙️ CB Talks, Episode 24 is live!

Why the traditional recruitment operating model is broken 🔧

In this episode of CB Talks, our CEO Ricardo Nobre sits down with Jacquay Thiercelin, Head of Clients & New Business at Cross Border Talents, for a candid conversation about why the way most companies still hire is fundamentally out of sync with how business actually works today.

Together, they unpack:

The structural mismatch at the core of internal recruitment: hiring demand is variable, but internal capacity is fixed

The surprise factor 📈: how companies suddenly need 50 to 200 people fast, and why in house teams aren't built for those spikes

Geographical complexity 🌍: why international hiring calls for local expertise, language skills, and a real understanding of regional candidate expectations

Speed and scaling limitations ⚡: building internal recruitment capacity takes months, while the business needs people now

What a modern, flexible recruitment partnership actually looks like, and how it changes the game for clients.

This episode is a must watch for talent leaders, hiring managers, and executives rethinking how their organizations attract and secure the right people at the right time.

In the next episode of the CBTalks podcast, Jacquay Thiercelin, Head of Clients & New Business at Cross Border Talents, unpacks a common assumption in recruitment: when a company has a hiring problem, the instinct is to bring in more recruiters. But does that actually solve it?

According to Jacquay, the answer is often no. 🎯 Hiring more permanent recruiters to handle a temporary spike means putting a permanent price tag on a temporary problem. A business launching in a new market might need a strong hiring push for six months, and that makes sense in the short term. The issue comes after: once the push is done, those extra recruiters are no longer needed, and the company ends up paying for capacity it isn't using while being locked into a rigid structure.

The conversation also touches on the value of proactive headhunting, since a large share of successful placements come from recruiters who understand specific candidate communities and know how to approach them, not from candidates simply applying to job ads. 🔍

In the next episode of the CBTalks podcast, Jacquay Thiercelin, Head of Clients & New Business at Cross Border Talents, reflects on how dramatically the recruitment landscape has shifted over the last few years, especially when it comes to geography.

In the past, most companies hired mainly within the country where they operated. Today, even medium-sized businesses recruit internationally. 🌍 The pool of candidates has gone global, and the question is no longer "who can we hire nearby?" but "where in the world can I find the person I need?"

Jacquay highlights how this reshapes hiring strategy: multilingual customer support in Southern Europe, tech talent in Eastern Europe, sales professionals in entirely different regions. Remote work didn't just transform employers it transformed candidates too. 💼 They're now open to working from anywhere, and with far more options on the table, they've also become a lot more selective.

In the next episode of the CBTalks podcast, Jacquay Thiercelin, Head of Clients & New Business at Cross Border Talents, dives into one of the biggest structural challenges companies face in recruitment today, especially as AI reshapes hiring processes.

The core issue? Hiring demand is variable, but internal recruiting capacity is usually fixed. ⚖️ Companies build permanent recruitment teams based on expected demand, which means when hiring spikes, there aren't enough recruiters — and when it drops, there's suddenly too much internal capacity. The problem isn't the recruiters themselves; it's that the structure isn't flexible.

Jacquay reflects on why the instinct to simply "add more people" doesn't solve it. More headcount only creates excess. The real answer lies in implementing the right tools, the right processes, and tapping into capacity that already exists in the market. 🔧 As he puts it: it's a structure problem, not a headcount problem.

In the next episode of the CBTalks podcast, Jacquay Thiercelin, Head of Clients & New Business at Cross Border Talents, breaks down the most common recruitment challenges companies face today and what's changed in the AI era.

He identifies three key sectors where businesses struggle. The first is the surprise factor: when a company suddenly needs to hire 20, 50, or even 200 people, but their recruitment team is built for normal hiring, not for that kind of spark. The second is geography — hiring at home is one thing, but scaling into Portugal, Greece, Germany, Eastern Europe, or Latin America is a completely different game, with new languages, new talent pools, and new ways of reaching candidates. The third, and perhaps the most critical, is speed: everyone wants recruitment to scale up instantly, but building that capacity takes time, the right team, and the right process in place.

A sharp look at what today's hiring landscape really demands.
