Am I the only one weirded out by these mass spreadsheets of individuals who have been laid off? Is anyone really looking to these for hiring purposes?

Yes, I read through these and then send them to my recruiting team. We have called people in from these lists and have made one hire so far from them. I’ve seen more hires like that happen in other companies via colleagues. We started looking at them back with Uber and WeWork talent when lists were first compiled. It’s weird but it’s helped a lot of companies find talent and a lot of talent find jobs.

Yes, where are these magic lists? We're looking for some specific experience and have had trouble finding qualified candidates.

Tell us what type of experience you’re looking for – I’m sure there were people with it here.
