Ep 558: Making Talent Acquisition Magical

On such a magical night (we even had a magician doing card tricks), it seemed fitting to ask people what we need to do to make talent acquisition more magical. Here is a selection of the brilliant insights shared with me and my guest co-host Jenny Cotie Kangas from White Rock Consulting. Topics covered include: Automation and human interaction Candidate and employee experience Skills based hiring Speed and engagement Hidden pools of talent Influence and persuasion Co-operation and collaboration Listen to this podcast on Apple Podcasts.
