#81- Brian Hunt on Outsourcing Smarter: How Recruiters Can 3x Their Production Without Burning Out
Description
EPISODE SUMMARY
In this episode, Clark Wilcox sits down with Brian Hunt, CEO of Kore RPO and Kore BPO, to unpack the art and strategy behind outsourcing in recruiting. Brian didn’t start in recruiting, he came from tech consulting and software implementation but his passion for solving complex problems led him to build teams across continents and eventually into staffing. After acquiring a staffing agency in 2010, Brian realized that much of a recruiter’s desk could be reimagined by blending offshore support with high-touch recruiting.
Brian walks us through how breaking down the recruiter workflow unlocked massive gains: one top recruiter quadrupled her gross profit by handing off sourcing to a dedicated offshore team. This isn't about replacing recruiters, it’s about enabling them to focus on what they do best: conversations, connections, and closing.
They discuss the psychology of performance, how agency owners can better support top billers, and the biggest mistakes firms make when trying to scale. From setter/closer frameworks to AI’s role in recruiting, this is a masterclass in strategic execution for firms ready to evolve.
