    AI Interviews - Good or Bad?

    AI Interviewing - it's a hot topic currently in the TA space. New jobs and sectors has changed Ben's perspective on it a little now. As long as it stays true to Candidate Experience, then we're both in agreement that it can be a useful timesaver, allowing us to concentrate more on the CX side of things and delivering top class service.

    Compliance Is Key

    We've probably all seen or heard of the huge backlog in employment tribunals currently, with some cases being scheduled in the 2030's already! This is NOT good for Talent/People Teams! So many variables and changes can happen between now and then, people change jobs, change careers, move countries, etc. However when you dig a little deeper into the causes behind so many cases, a lot leads back to compliance and process. Now you know by now how focussed and passionate Dale is on process, so this episode is close to his heart!

    Timothy Andrews, Recruitment Businesses, Retention, Covid, 2008 Crash & Talking Hospitality Podcast!

    This episode of Talking Talent features Timothy R. Andrews, the founder of the Talking Hospitality podcast with over 25 years of experience in the sector. Tim shares his "glass-to-boardroom" journey, starting from washing glasses in West End bars to becoming the Head of Talent and Development at Jumeirah Hotels. The discussion dives deep into the resilience required to navigate the industry, specifically comparing the 2008 financial crash with the "unprecedented" impact of COVID-19, which led to the loss of Timothy’s previous recruitment business. Beyond his history, Tim offers actionable insights into modern talent challenges, emphasizing that the hospitality industry must stop recruiting like it is 2015. He highlights the critical need for transferable skills, the danger of "accidental managers," and how investing in employee development at Jumeirah helped drop staff turnover by two-thirds. Finally, Tim discusses his latest venture - a community-focused cafe called Ouna in Chingford-and shares a hilariously awkward "worst interview" story involving an old-school city recruiter. https://headtoouna.com/ https://www.talkinghospitality.com/ Please give us a follow over on Spotify, Apple & LinkedIn! __________ Sponsored by Equitas - The all-in-one software that transforms hiring. https://equitas.ai Partnered with Candid Hospitality, your anonymous matchmaker for hospitality careers. https://candidhospitality.co.uk/ Produced by BenJam Media.
