We’re excited to kick off our first Design Chats event of the year by welcoming Design Leader and Coach, Aniruddha Kadam! Aniruddha’s expertise spans design strategy, leadership, product development, and team culture. As a design leader building hiring products at LinkedIn during the pandemic, Aniruddha needed to understand and embrace a new approach to hiring design. These strategic pivots not only addressed immediate pandemic challenges, but have permanently reshaped how organisations approach recruitment, creating more flexible and inclusive hiring processes for customers. Join us for a behind the scenes look at how Aniruddha’s design team navigated this new reality to deliver a delightful, trustworthy and safe product experience. Design Chats is open to everyone via Zoom, just register via our Meetup group - https://lnkd.in/gyC2QtWC We can’t wait to see you online! 🚀 #experienceREA

We recently invited our people back into the “Culture Lab” video experience, a question-generating app built by our tech grads. In the latest instalment, team members were asked to share their favourite thing about their work. Whether it’s crunching numbers in finance or imagining the future with AI, it's the people and their shared vision that stood out. Check out what our Culture Lab visitors had to say in the video below. Interested in a future career at REA? Join our Talent Neighbourhood today: https://lnkd.in/gsX6P_ux #experienceREA

Tomorrow is International Women’s Day. At REA, we know it’s just as important to March Forward for the women in our communities as it is to support the women of REA. Through our long-standing charity partnerships with Launch Housing and The Big Issue Australia's Women's Workforce, we’re able to contribute to the employment, safety and empowerment of women experiencing homelessness and disadvantage, and help them shape a brighter future for themselves and their families. To learn more about how these partnerships are supporting women in need, check out the video below. #MarchForward #IWD2025 #experienceREA
