Rubberband LIVE - The Australian Recruitment and Talent Podcast Edan Haddock

Where do I start with this one? I might dub this the "firecracker" episode! 
If you are looking for as big injection of energy and passion look no further than my Recruitment Chinwag with Vinisha Rathod from Think & Grow!

We have a great reflection on Vinisha's career! 
From Brisbane, to London, To Sydney. A variety of positions and life experiences, eventually leading her to HR Consulting. Flash forward and we talk about Vinisha's career with Think & Grow, working with Start Ups and Scale Up's on their people strategy.

A very interesting Chinwag, with a professional that specialises "behind the scenes" to help empower Talent and Recruitment professionals (and organisations) make effective, and meaningful hiring decisions. 

We also have a well-meaning dig at "the happy family" EVP's you see out there! It's a fun and informative listen!

Enjoy!

I love this episode! It was such an energetic experience to meet with Jessica Waddell from The Lab17 today!

We have a great Chinwag about Jessica's history. And boy, oh boy, it's quite a journey! Growing up on the beautiful south coast of NSW, Jessica found a connection with a High School teacher that really encouraged and nurtured her to be the best human being she could be....

So, she went to University majoring in Law (A double Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Law). After working in Macca's prior to Uni, she graduated and became a practicing Solicitor.

Fast forward a year, she decided to spend 6 months finding the perfect fit for her and her career, and landed a gig in Recruitment. How cool is that!

18 months into her career, we hear about all the wonderful things she has learned, and celebrate the power of being your authentic self.

In Graduate Recruitment...YES means MAYBE!
 Learn how to win the hearts & minds of early career talent.
 With Tim Way - The Career Conversation

This is a wonderful episode for anyone out there that is interested in Early Careers, or anyone who currently has a Graduate Program in place.

We discuss key trends across the Graduate Attraction, Recruitment, Engagement and Onboarding life-cycle. We talk a-lot about the characteristics of Gen Z, and how we should approach our campaigns to meet their core drivers and expectations.
We also spend time talking about content creation, and how we can make a huge impact, even with limited budget and resources.
It's a great listen!

As an Industry we need to talk. We need to open up, and discuss Mental Health.

Today I was joined by Paris Matin to discuss this topic. I hope that listening to this Podcast episode will open up more conversations.
We talk about our core motivations for becoming a Recruitment Consultant. To help people. However, working in an industry that is in the business of rejection (both personally, and for candidates) can really take its toll.

We learn more about Paris's career journey, from being an elite sportsman, to finding his place in the Recruitment Industry. Paris gives us some really great tips on how we can better support our Colleagues, Competitors and Industry Peers, as we continue our career journeys, in what can be a challenging working environment.

Finally if you are suffering with your Mental Health,  Beyond Blue (1300 22 4636) and/or Lifeline on (13 11 14) are only a phone call away.

And always remember, that a conversation can save a life. RUOK, everyday.

WE'RE BACK! Season 2 is alive and brilliant!

For the new season kick off, I am joined for a Recruitment Chinwag by the delightful Laurie Glen from Northbridge Recruitment! 
Laurie is 5 years into his Recruitment career, and thriving! 

Growing up in QLD, we talk about his childhood, and his passion for fish! In fact, his childhood was rather entrepreneurial- breeding and selling fish for profit (that early commercial mindset has certainly came in handy for his Agency Recruitment career) 

We talk about his studies - a Recruiter who intentionally went to University to become a HR professional (see listeners, it does happen!) and how he has now found his niche in Recruitment.

We have a great discussion about the Recruitment Industry, and how Recruiters are perceived in the broader HR landscape. We talk about the power of embracing your strengths and being your true authentic self. 
We also dive into my favourite topic - Workplace Flexibility!

Enjoy!
