The Greenhouse team headed to SXSW 2023 in Austin, Texas, to share insights on the stage and learn what some of the most successful companies are doing in today’s tough economy – not only to stay afloat, but to flourish. Here are our top lessons so everyone from recruiters to business leaders can get a better understanding of what they can and should do to succeed this year.

With more companies embracing flexible work arrangements, it's understandable that people are looking for better ways to balance their professional and personal lives. Remote work provides numerous benefits, ranging from improved well-being and work-life balance to increased productivity. We're sharing effective recruiting strategies to help you confidently attract and hire remote talent.

If you’re confused by recent economic shifts and what they mean for hiring, you’re not alone. We’re seeing a skyrocketing number of open jobs at the same time as reports of slowing growth and high-profile layoffs. If these apparent contradictions are leaving even economists stumped, how can you make sense of them as a talent professional? Greenhouse recently partnered with HiBob to explore what’s happening in the global talent market today and how that’s likely to inform your hiring for the rest of the year and beyond. Explore some of the highlights from their conversation here.

I wanted to better understand the tectonic shifts that were occurring in the world of work, how the pandemic accelerated these existing trends and why top talent is seeking work at companies that put their people first.
