TaPod - We Talk Talent Acquisition.

This week on Tapod, we catch up with Matthew Lant – Head of Recruitment and Employer Brand at AFCA. Now every year at the ITAs there is a team that cleans up. Last year AFCA won Excellence in Employer Brand, Excellence in Candidate Experience and Corporate Talent Professional of the Year. Want to hear how they did it?

This week on Tapod, we catch up with Samantha Devlin (Sam to her friends), co-founder and CEO of The Careers Department. With the world agog with the AI revolution… Graduate unemployment at record highs and students questioning traditional pathways, we thought it was time to get to the bottom of it all, and who better to speak to than Sam? The Careers Department has a ton of student-led data, including intention shifts on post-school pathways in school-leavers. It’s a fascinating dataset and one that just may contribute to changes in the way we work. And if you are a parent, uncle, aunty or even friend of a student, this is a VERY important interview to listen to.

This week on Tapod we catch up with the ever-brilliant and ever-busy Edan Haddock – Head of Talent and People Experience at Movember, Podcast Host and Community Builder. There is a helluva lot going on at Movember, from a new Global Institute of Men’s Health to ‘Joel’ the AI agent and a global recruitment responsibility – it’s busy, busy, busy! Throw on top of that the Total Talent Podcast; he’s barely got time to scratch himself. Hands up if you have an AI Agent reporting directly to you as part of your Talent Team? Edan does, and he’ll tell us all about it!

Buckle in for a special episode of Tapod, where we sit down with Peter Treloar – Founder at Taly. Believe us, this is NOT a normal personality profiling solution. From an AI-enabled on-demand org psych to delivering results in video or even podcast form and NO boring reports. It gets the data into your hands when and where you need it. And if you need any further proof, listen to the end, and you will hear an AI-driven podcast unpacking Lauren and Craig’s personalities and how they will work together… or implode. It’s great stuff!

It’s your weekly dose of the Scoop from Tapod with all of your TA & Recruitment news from here and abroad.

This week on Tapod we catch up with the amazing Natalie Flynn, Founder of Equidi, to discuss the latest WGEA gender pay gap and all things International Women’s Day. We are making baby steps into our pay gap, but it’s not enough and we’re not sure we’re even measuring the right data… What we can be sure of is that in many industries, there are still more opportunities at the ‘top end’ of businesses for males, from management to the ‘C-suite'. We touch on AI and its impact on the gender labour market and much more. It’s not about cupcakes; it’s about action, and it’s time we all took action… real action. PS. Who’s up for a road trip to Canberra?

But right now… Kimbo is in between roles, and we explore the world of the unemployed Talent Acquisition professional. From Candidate Experience to AI in the Recruitment Process to the state of the TA, and even authoring a children’s book, we unpack what we all fear – searching for a job... It’s compelling and frustrating, but we do it with a smile on our faces!
