We brought in Joel Lalgee — GTM recruiter, content creator, and one of the most followed voices in recruiting — to give his honest, unfiltered take on Gem's Talent Insights. In 5 minutes, he walks through how the moment you start a search, you get an instant market snapshot showing where candidates are concentrated, which companies have the talent you need, and whether you're chasing a unicorn or tapping a deep pool.

In this video:

• How Talent Insights surfaces a full market snapshot the moment you start a search
• How to see candidate distribution by role, company, tenure, and location before outreach begins
• How to export a market snapshot to PDF and bring it straight into your hiring manager conversation
• The honest take: does seeing the data upfront actually change how you approach a search?

This video is for recruiters and TA leaders who are tired of walking into hiring manager conversations with estimates instead of data, and want to set every search up for success from day one.
