Talking Talent with PeopleScout

In this special episode of Talking Talent, we discuss artificial intelligence and the impact it will have on recruiting. Instead of an interview, this episode is a recording of a presentation by Dr. Rand Hindi from our London “Resourcing 2025” event. At that event, PeopleScout launched the next generation of RPO featuring a future-focused approach to service RPO customers across Europe. There, Dr. Hindi described recent developments in artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning and implications those will have on the talent landscape of the future.

Today, we’re looking to the future – talent acquisition in 2020. Joining me for this conversation is Madeline Laurano, the founder of Aptitude Research, an industry research firm.

In this episode, we talk about change management while implementing a new RPO program. Emily Gordon, a client delivery leader at PeopleScout joins us to talk about this change management process. Emily has more than 21 years’ experience in talent acquisition and has overseen sourcing, continual process improvement, and client implementations. Her expertise is in transitions, process improvement, team building, client relationship development, and operational delivery. She holds a Six Sigma Green Belt certification. Emily is a graduate of the University of Michigan.

Attracting candidates with the right cultural fit is difficult at any organization. The issue is compounded when employees are not working in an office environment but instead out in the field, working face-to-face with your customers. For organizations with field service employees, the workers that spend the least amount of time in your office are often the face of the organization.

So how do you attract and hire field the best service workers?

Joining us to talk about this is Chris Gera, the Managing Director, Executive Vice President for Service Council™. In his role, Chris is defining and executing the Service Council's Research & Insights™ product portfolio.

In this episode of Talking Talent, we talk to Liz Wiseman, the New York Times bestselling author of Multipliers: How the Best Leaders Make Everyone Smarter, about how her research and the insights behind Multipliers can be applied to your talent programs.

After building a strong EVP and employer brand, employers face the challenge of effectively promoting and marketing that brand to candidates and employees. The roll-out and management of an employer brand platform are just as important as the care taken to research and craft that positioning. To talk about this, joining us is Simon Wright, Managing Partner of Talent Advisory here at PeopleScout.

This is the first Talking Talent episode in a two-part conversation about employer value propositions and employer branding. To talk about this, joining us is Simon Wright, Managing Partner of Talent Advisory here at PeopleScout.

In this episode of Talking Talent, we’re talking about the onboarding process and setting yourself up for success with new hires and promotions in the first 90 days. Joining us is Dana Look-Arimoto who is a mentor, speaker and change agent with more than 20 years of experience in the talent ecosystem.

In this episode of Talking Talent, we’re talking about what leaders from around the globe can learn from the trends and challenges in local markets, and how they can use those insights to improve their own programs.

On this episode of Talking Talent, we’re talking about Recruitment Process Outsourcing or RPO.

RPO is a type of business process outsourcing where an external organization, an RPO provider, supports an employer’s talent acquisition function by assuming responsibility for parts or all facets of talent acquisition for some or all of an employer’s hiring needs.

To talk about RPO, joining us is Jessie McGowan, PeopleScout’s leader of business development in North America. She spends the majority of her time talking to prospective customers about our solutions here at PeopleScout, but she is client delivery at heart.
