The easiest way is to make sure your company is using good outside recruiters or that your internal people are doing things the right way. And that you're also trying to hire through internal referrals and being visible in the local community rather than just through recruiter spam. If you're a good employee, the kind of person they would like to hire more of, it will carry a lot of weight if you are interested in helping with hiring. Offer to go to meetups or do other local things to get your company more visibility. And help craft job descriptions and phone screen guidelines. Then you can just be honest about how recruiters can help with the process and how they can get in the way. A bad outside recruiter who spams the local community can destroy your reputation in the community, whereas a good recruiter can identify good prospects while also engaging with your current team to understand their feedback and understand how to sell the company to people. While there are certainly some terrible in recruiting, there are also some wonderful people. And lots of mediocre people who will default to bad habits because of their metrics-oriented incentives but can be coached to do really good work if they have help.
