Brainfood Live On Air - Ep249 - Future of Work - Talent Acquisition - Not Invited?
FUTURE OF WORK: TALENT ACQUISITION...NOT INVITED?
Talent Acquisition has long fought a battle for a 'seat at the table' when the big decisions are made about the future of an organisation but we really need to come to that table with unique perspective, value and confidence.
With the era of Generative AI already upon us, let's do a sense check on where Talent Acquisition is when conversations about the future shape of an organisation takes place.
- Do we know what the CEO vision of an AI-enabled company looks like?
- Do we know what the CFO vision is?
- Do we understand how these visions impact the future of TA?
- How do we position so that we lead the change to AI-enablement rather than become victim to it?
- What steps do we need to take today to get this moving?
All this and more as we dive in to real talk with industry experts Jason Seiden, VP Growth & Innovation (Cielo Talent), Paul Maxin, Founder (MaxinTalent), Madeline Laurano, Founder (Aptitude Research), Jane Curran, Global Head of Talent Acquisition (JLL) and Lavanya VNV, on Friday 15th March, 2.00pm GMT.

Brainfood Live On Air - Ep245 - Is LinkedIn X-Ray Dead Dying or What?
LINKEDIN X-RAY: DEAD OR DYING OR WHAT?
Using a search engine to 'X-ray' an ostensibly closed social network is the quintessential activity of a sourcer. You could probably argue that the entire sourcing discipline emerged as a result of recruiters discovering sophisticated ways to interrogate a system to retrieve information about potential candidates.
Consequently, the news that LinkedIn had begun to suppress important biographical data from being crawled by search engines (especially Google) brought alarm to the entire recruiting community.
We need to come to the bottom of it, so we're bring together expert sources from around the world together to share information on the state of LinkedIn X-Ray
- what has changed from the latest update?
- what can be seen / can't be seen using the old techniques?
- is this search engine specific or are all search engines no longer able to see this information?
- what does this mean for people aggregators / data enrichers?
- what are the workarounds?
- what are the implications for sources?
All this and more as we try to figure out the future of sourcing with Marcel van der Meer, Global Sourcing Trainer, (Klikwork), Irina Shamaeva, Partner (Brain Gain Recruiting), Alla Pavlova, Recruiter (Riot Games), Mike Santoro, Talent Sourcing, (AllSearch) & Balazs Paroczay, Founder (The Source Code Agency)
