Has anyone ever benefited from joining an organization's Talent Community?
Now and then, I'll get a generic email from a recruiter that appears to be a general blast about open positions, but never anything direct.
How about you all?

If it is a company that you revere and want to work for joining their community should give you insight into culture and content and what and how they hire. These days many companies publish a manual online of their recruiting process so that there are no surprises because they want transparency with candidates which will get them a better hire.
