Using people data in a smart way can bring an edge to your recruiting approach.
Data is everywhere, but useful data is not. Many people talk about data like it's up for grabs.

Skills data can be desperately outdated...
Work performance data rigged...
Diversity data wrongly interpreted...
Some data can be risky territory...
