🎙 𝐄𝐩 𝟔𝟎𝟏: 𝐐𝐮𝐢𝐞𝐭 𝐇𝐢𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 Skills shortages, shortening skills lifespans, digital transformation, the AI revolution, hiring freezes and layoffs. These are just some of the factors currently reshaping how companies think about talent. It’s clear that this level of disruption is now the new normal rather than a short-term trend. So, how do TA teams respond, and what role do they have in helping employers redefine their thinking about talent, skills, and hiring? My guest on this episode is Rich Wilson, CEO and Co-Founder of Gigged.AI. Before he became a founder, Rich had a successful career as a recruiter and spent time as a Gartner analyst specialising in digital transformation and the future of work. In the interview, we discuss: • Skill shortages and layoffs • The shortening lifespan of skills • Switching from cap-ex to op-ex • Future of work trends • How AI is creating new workforce opportunities • Internal mobility, upskilling, reskilling and contingent hiring • New ways of getting skills into the business • Talent sharing and open innovation • How does TA need to think differently about talent? • What will the talent space look like in five years? 🔗 Listen here https://bit.ly/3veNLbK, or wherever you get your podcasts.

🎙 𝐄𝐩 𝟔𝟎𝟐: 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐤𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐬 𝐌𝐢𝐬𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐜𝐡 𝐈𝐧 𝐇𝐢𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 Skills-based hiring is a hot topic as many employers seek to better understand the skills they need in their businesses both now and in the future. With the shelf life of hard skills shortening by the day, companies need to bridge the gap between talent acquisition and talent management to ensure that they are hiring for the skills that actually drive value for the business. My guest on this episode is Jason Putnam, CRO at Plum. Jason has tremendous experience in the industry and is continually talking to senior corporate leaders about their skills strategies. In the interview, we discuss: • The current market challenges • Are companies prioritizing talent management over talent acquisition? • How is the relationship between the talent management and talent acquisition function evolving? • The shortening shelf life of hard skills and the importance of soft skills • The mismatch between the skills employers hire for and the skills they actually value in their organizations • Skills and productivity • Are mapping skills within the organization necessary or even possible? • How job seekers’ use of AI will change talent acquisition. • What does the future look like 🔗 Listen here https://bit.ly/3PBFk0M, or wherever you get your podcasts.

For this Friday's (Aug. 16, 12noon ET) recording of the DOS Won't Hunt podcast, I am looking for panelists who are hiring managers and IT team leaders. Financial Times recently ran a story on how the flood of AI-generated job applications inundate hiring managers. Let's talk this Friday about what this means for IT teams. How can hiring managers sift through CVs of potentially questionable quality and veracity? How can IT leaders be sure they see job candidates who have the actual skills they need on their teams? Whiplash shifts in tech, especially AI, affect what enterprises want in terms of skills to help the organization grow--is that same tech getting in the way of the search for such talent? Potential guest panelists, please contact me ASAP: joao-pierre.ruth@informationweek.com

🚨 What's Wrong with The Recruiting Department? 🤔 I really enjoy Josh Bersin's weekly podcasts where he covers all things related to recruitment, talent acquisition, L & D, AI architecture and human connection and so much more. Josh Bersin advocates the systemic workplace where hiring, development, and career progression are driven by skills rather than traditional job titles or roles, which I am completely onboard with. 😊 I thought this particular podcast https://bit.ly/3WTRUeT would provide my network with much food for thought and had to share. 💡 These are just some of the top takeaways that stood out for me: ☑️Integrate Learning & Development with recruitment to promote a skills-first workplace and career development. ☑️Many companies are stuck with legacy ATS systems—time to clean up and embrace AI-driven tools. ☑️Upskilling is critical—without it, companies risk falling behind in the brutal talent market as continuous learning is a No 1 priority for employees and companies alike. ☑️Align internal mobility and skills-based hiring with recruiting. ☑️Outsource what you can’t do internally. ☑️Cut down on bureaucracy and focus on quality time to reduce time to hire. ☑️Turn recruiters into talent advisors by leveraging tech.
