Talking reimagining talent acquisition with Nate Hewitt of Sapia.ai on their Pink Squirrels Podcast.
We had a very spirited discussion around:
What companies are getting wrong with talent acquisition right now
How companies stand out against their talent competitors (even with little or no budget)
How to think differently about the roles they are filling to access more candidates.

About
In 2009 CEO and founder Kim Seeling Smith started Ignite Global after deciding that instead of being paid to put bums in seats (working as a recruiter for the 15 years prior to that) she wanted to help More
I had a great time speaking to Ben OโShea on The West Australianโs The West Live show about what really drives people to change jobs.
Like in all booms, companies within WA are losing great people for the allure of a high pay packet working in a FIFO environment. Can leaders do anything to stop this from happening (spoiler alert โ yes!).
Why do people look for other roles (spoiler alert โ despite what most leaders think, itโs rarely about money)?
What do you do if you lose someone that you donโt want to lose? Can you entice them back (spoiler alert โ statistically, yes, 20% of the time).

Iโm curious, what has your experience been with implicit bias training?
Having spent 15 years working as a professional recruiter and 11 years teaching hiring managers how to hire more effectively and efficiently Iโve always felt that implicit bias training was a waste of time.
There is more and more research now backing up my gut feel. Here are two articles that unpack this pretty nicely.
Even worse, there is consistent evidence that bias training done the โwrong wayโ (think lukewarm diversity training) can actually have the opposite impact, inducing anger and frustration among white employees. What this all means is that, despite the widespread calls for implicit bias training, it will likely be ineffective at best; at worst, itโs a poor use of limited resources that could cause more damage and exacerbate the very issues it is trying to solve.

Right, so Iโm back after almost 6 weeks. What did I miss? Other than a new PM in Australia, more gun violence in the USโฆand the fact that, according to the OECD, Australia has the second tightest skills market in the world.
You may have noticed that I havenโt been posting much over the last 5 โ 6 weeks because Iโve been in the US speaking at the annual Association for Talent Development (ATD) conference (funnily enough about employee retention).
My Facebook memories told me that 1 year ago today was my first appearance on Nineโs Today Show. Georgie and I had a spirited discussion about the older workforce. I was optimistic back then. I was FINALLY seeing some cracks in our decades old discrimination against older workers.
Not so much anymore. Iโve read recent stories that Ageism is still alive and well and increasing in our new COVID environment.
Iโd love your thoughts. What do you see?
If youโre over 50, what do you find? What are your plans for the future? Remain in full time work, do contract work, side hustle? Start your own business?
