Jason Munoz didn’t choose a career in recruiting. He was “voluntold” into it after years running operations in the field, and it ended up shaping the next 26 years of his career.
Jason is the Director of Talent Acquisition at Entergy, a Fortune 500 energy company that generates, transmits, and distributes electricity to more than three million customers. In this episode, he talks about how his operational background taught him to run recruiting like a business, why he ties every investment to a measurable outcome, and how the childhood habit of taking things apart to see how they work still shapes the way he approaches people and problems today.
You’ll also hear:
- Why he measures time to fill instead of time to start, and what that one distinction reveals about accountability
- How he turns recruiting asks into business cases finance and leadership actually respond to
- Why he believes the biggest shift for new leaders is learning to let go of perfectionism
- How he thinks AI will change the skills recruiters need in the next five years
