TaPod - We Talk Talent Acquisition.

This week on Tapod we catch up with James Ellis.. and WOW! If you don’t think you need to know what Employer Brand is all about you are wrong. It’s all about finding something to make you different from others in your space – and that’s something we all need – especially when trying to cut through the noise to candidates.

We discuss James’ latest book – The Laws of Employer Branding and it is equal parts fascinating and valuable, and we unpack Lauren’s dating life.

It is one of the most interesting chats we have ever had!

On this episode of Tapod we catch up with Belinda Cawthorne – Global Director Enablement with our monthly partner Pageup.

Today on TaPod we sit down with Ben Roberts, Head of Talent Acquisition at David Jones… the oldest department store in Australia, (there’s no other store like David Jones). We find out that Ben doesn’t have any fashion sense, Lauren is looking for a friends & family discount and we delve into the strategy driving change in the P&C and TA function. In the crazy world of retail we can take a lot of lessons from DJ, from skills-based recruitment to career pathways… and check out their Gender pay Gap numbers.
