About this listen

Live from TalentSphere were talking abotu what fractional recruiting is, and when should a company use it? In this episode we talk with Brooke Wheeler, Founder of Restoration Talent Solutions and explore how fractional hiring gives companies executive-level recruiting expertise without the long-term commitment. You’ll learn how fractional talent acquisition leaders step into growing companies, build recruiting structure and process, and transition teams for long-term success. We also discuss how recruiters can build community, avoid AI overwhelm, and stay strategic in a fast-changing hiring landscape. Follow Brooke on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/brookewheeler/ Key Takeaways: Fractional recruiting provides part-time executive talent acquisition support. It is ideal for growing companies that need structure but not a full-time hire yet. Fractional leaders often build recruiting processes and hire their permanent replacement. Companies benefit from senior expertise at a fraction of the cost. Recruiters starting their own business can pivot successfully after layoffs. Community and mentorship are critical for independent recruiters. Structure, metrics, and one-on-ones are essential when stepping into existing teams. AI in recruiting should be approached strategically, not reactively. Companies should choose one AI solution at a time to avoid overwhelm. Fractional work is becoming more common in uncertain economic environments.
