Leveraging the potential of our team By Bonnie Dilber · January 10, 2023 Zapier brand logo Like many of our peers, Zapier is hiring more modestly in 2023, as we look to see the impacts of the investments we made in 2022. As a manager on our Talent Acquisition team, I sat in 1:1s with my team weekly and heard their anxiety as they'd ask about whether new roles would be opening soon or what projects they could take on—some even directly asked if we were at risk of layoffs.
But the real question they were asking was: "How can I add value? How can I show that I still belong here? How can I make myself a critical part of the team at Zapier during this time when I can't do the things AOB Directory I was initially hired to do?" In 2021, I hired four people to join my team; three of them had been previously affected by layoffs. Their anxiety was rooted in the experience of having been laid off recently by similar companies under similar circumstances. I know these are tough, painful decisions for any company. Sometimes, layoffs are truly the only option.
But at Zapier, we made a different choice. Leveraging the skills of our team We care deeply about each and every person at Zapier. We know that their potential and ability goes far beyond the core work they were hired to do. And we also realize a downturn is temporary. We worked hard to build our talent acquisition team, growing from 15 to nearly 40 between October 2021 and June 2022. And that team did amazing work, growing Zapier from 550 to over 800 team members in 2022.
