    Rain, Whisky and Robots

    If you listened to the TA Leader interviews in Episode 619, you'd know that Recruiting Future recently collaborated with The Chad & Cheese podcast to host two face-to-face unconference-style events in Edinburgh and Glasgow.

    On the day between the two events, we decided to combine podcast recording with tourism. What better way to do this than to use a campervan as a mobile recording studio and drive around the southeast of Scotland, taking in some of its world-famous coastal views? Well, that was the plan anyway.

    Our plans took an unexpected turn as the weather had other ideas. But this led to some exciting impromptu discussions on AI and the future of work, sparked by a tour of a two-hundred-year-old whisky distillery, a flying visit to a seven-hundred-year-old castle, and a trip to the beach.

    In this episode, we discuss:

    Is the resume dead?

    What's going on with skills-based hiring

    The differences and similarities between talent acquisition in Scotland and talent acquisition in the US

    Attitudes to risk

    The tricky balance between robots and humans

    What does the long-term future look like

    Do we have the right attitude towards the future as an industry?

    AI is already taking TA jobs.

    Why smaller employers may have an advantage

    What happens when AI is just baked into everything?

    What is going to change in the next three years

    Hard Skills & Soft Skills

    Hard Skills & Soft Skills

    The shortening shelf life of skills, shifting business priorities, and the surge in AI-driven job applications are compelling many employers to rethink their candidate assessment and selection processes. This shift towards skills-based thinking is fostering greater integration between talent acquisition and talent management. By combining data on soft skills, hard skills, and career aspirations, employers can leverage a unified dataset to gain a comprehensive view throughout the entire employee lifecycle.

    So how can this be done, and what advantages can it bring?

    My guest this week is Jason Putnam, the CRO at Plum. Jason has been driving the charge around the scientific assessment of soft skills for a while and has recently incorporated data on hard skills into their methodology. Jason has some important insights to share on the future of assessment and the implementation of skills-based hiring.

    In the interview, we discuss:

    How the market is evolving

    The changing balance between talent acquisition and talent management

    TA's responsibility for retention

    Combining hard skills and soft skills

    Pace paradox versus business latency

    Focusing on the skills you need rather than the skills you have

    The evolution of the recruiting process

    Building alignment between talent acquisition, talent management, and hiring managers

    The importance of one universal dataset

    The role of AI

    SmartRecruiters Unplugged with Interim CEO Rebecca Carr

    SmartRecruiters Unplugged with Interim CEO Rebecca Carr

    To say the ATS business is a challenging one these days would be an understatement. Between mergers and acquisitions, slumbering IPO ambitions and figuring out the whole AI Revolution, staying ahead of the game is complex. That's why we invited SmartRecruiters interim CEO and CPO Rebecca Carr to the show. She's an industry veteran with a good story to tell and as an industry product person to the bone, she can add nuance to the landscape. Covering everything from the hibernating IPO speculation to the botched acquisition with iCIMS to her time with - wait for it - Branchout, a high flying player from over a decade ago, who flamed out and die at the hand of Facebook before it really caught fire. It'a a walk down Memory Land, and a glimpse into the future that's a must-listen.

    The Unicorn Parade with Jason Corsello

    The Unicorn Parade with Jason Corsello

    The world of venture capital is a mystery to most. Who gets funded and why? What's the math around valuations? And why is there so much "betting on the jockey"? So many questions with so few answers. That's why we invited Jason Corsello, founder and general partner at Acadian Ventures, on the podcast. He'll help us better understand the unicorn parade from a few years back, which resulted in a VC winter, which has led to the gradual thawing of capital into the world of work. What kind of companies are getting his attention, and wallet share, and what advice does he give to startups looking to raise that first seed round of capital. The veils are being lifted and the crystal balls are coming out on this one. Enjoy.
