Podcasts about talent acquisition

Recruiting Future is a podcast that helps Talent Acquisition teams drive measurable impact by developing their strategic capability in Foresight, Influence, Talent, and Technology.  This episode is about talent. Economic uncertainty and disruption has reached a whole new level in 2025, with companies freezing hiring plans and candidates hesitating to make career moves. But if talent attraction strategies fail during market volatility, how can organizations that need scarce and specialized talent survive and thrive?  So, when candidate markets are tight, how can TA teams turn uncertainty into opportunity? My guest this week is Dave Napeloni, Senior Vice President of Global Life Sciences at Korn Ferry. Dave's team is helping life sciences companies navigate talent scarcity by transforming how they engage with candidates during economic disruption. Dave has valuable insights to share, on effective talent engagement and pipeline building, that are changing how organizations compete for talent in these uncertain times. In the interview, we discuss The talent market challenges in Life Sciences Dealing with long-term uncertainty  The impact on candidate behavior How successful companies are using volatility as a competitive advantage  The critical importance of EVPs and employer branding Building candidate engagement through purpose-driven messaging Extending the role of TA beyond onboarding and into talent management How AI can radically improve the candidate experience What the future might look like Follow this podcast on Apple Podcasts.

Recruiting Future is a podcast designed to help Talent Acquisition teams drive measurable impact by developing strategic capability in Foresight, Influence, Talent, and Technology. This episode is about technology. Most HR tech projects end in disappointment because organizations focus all their energy on implementation rather than adoption.

My guest this week is Melissa Hojwall, Global HR Tech Leader at H&M. H&M has over 100,000 employees, the majority of whom are frontline workers, making internal tech adoption both challenging and high impact. In conversation, Melissa talks about the strategies around implementation, adoption, and continuous change management that help make TA and HR Tech projects successful. In the interview, we discuss: HR Digitisation at H&M How AI can solve TA & HR challenges Predictive analytics The skills needed to get the right balance between humans and AI Tech adoption and change agility Investing in what happens after the go-live date Using resistance as a superpower Finding and showcasing the benefits to the bottom line Disrupting how we interface with technology What does the future of HR Tech look like?

Shiran shares the importance of using customer research to build AI solutions for genuine recruiting challenges and to create the right vision for the future . In the interview, we discuss: Building products in disruptive times The difference between AI co-pilots and AI agents Using AI to Solve real TA productivity problems with AI Why customer research is critical for meaningful AI innovation The importance of building agents that collaborate across platforms How TA leaders should be evaluating AI vendors The importance of visionary innovation What is the ultimate future vision for TA?

Recruiting Future is a podcast designed to help Talent Acquisition teams drive measurable impact by developing strategic capability in Foresight, Influence, Talent, and Technology.  This episode is about talent and technology. Many employers are facing an increasing problem with candidates' use of AI. Along with dramatically increasing application numbers, AI tools are, in some cases, allowing potentially unsuitable candidates to jump to the front of the queue, endangering the integrity of the recruiting process. One potential answer to this challenge is to deploy science-based psychometric testing much earlier in the process than has traditionally been the case. So, how should assessment tools and technologies evolve to combine scientific robustness, candidate engagement, and resilience against AI manipulation My guest this week is Alan Bourne, Partner at Omatti and an expert in assessment innovation. Alan highlights the issues with legacy assessment tools and sets out a blueprint for transformation that embraces AI to enhance both the candidate experience and the predictive accuracy of the tools. We also discuss the role of assessment in the move to skills organisations. In the interview, we discuss: The real impact of candidates using AI Why resumes & interviews are the least effective and least fair way of assessment Defensive proctoring versus proactive innovation Using AI to develop immersive, simulation-based assessments Getting the right balance between science and engagement The progress of skills-based hiring The danger of just replacing experience-based CVs with experience-based skills What will the future look like?

Access the L&D Maturity Model here - https://360learning.com/maturity-model KEY TAKEAWAYS L&D leaders need to think strategically to truly help the business. Seek real customer feedback. If you don´t know what people really think you can´t improve. Focus on how people really learn. It is always evolving. The L&D department needs to learn and evolve themselves. Collaborative learning works. Always partner with subject matter experts. Where possible update what they have already created, then get them to edit it. Start by helping people to achieve their KPIs. Educate yourself about performance consulting. Focus on outcomes. Be smart with people´s time. When you have different perspectives and experiences in the room you achieve more.

That "pretty good" hire you just made? It could be costing you 3X their salary in hidden losses. April reveals why most businesses accidentally hire for failure, and the exact framework she uses to build teams that 10X company value. Key Insights:

In this episode of HR Like a Boss, host John Bernatovicz welcomes talent acquisition thought leader Mike Peditto for a candid conversation on the future of hiring. From navigating job loss to becoming a strong advocate for human-centered recruiting, Mike shares how empathy, authenticity, and transparency are transforming the way companies approach talent acquisition. They dive into the role of social media in job searching, why treating candidates like employees matters, and how innovative practices like work trials can reshape the hiring experience—for the better.ABOUT MIKE PEDITTOMike has over a decade of hiring experience and after going through multiple layoffs and job losses, he took to social media to bridge the gap between frustrated job seekers and recruiters as he had become both. He built a network in public from scratch and in under a year gained 300K followers across social media. He used his platform to launch his own consulting company working with both job seekers and start up companies on how to improve hiring before taking on his current role of Director of Talent for Teal. He has built a reputation for always going to bat for people who need the support and focusing on how things are and how to best navigate them, rather than focusing on how we wish it was and just discussing what should be different.
