Everything about how we work has changed - so why are we still recruiting like it's 1980? Throw Out the Playbook is the podcast for Talent Acquisition professionals ready to ditch the outdated hiring rulebook and attract, engage, and retain talent like it’s 2024.
Hosted by Rhona Pierce, a software engineer-turned-TA-leader known for breaking all the rules, each episode invites forward-thinking recruiters and business leaders to share unfiltered stories from the talent trenches and unconventional strategies that actually work (even if they make a few suits sweat).
This show is for anyone who's fed up with broken hiring practices, stale talent philosophies, and the same old 'blah blah blah' about the candidate experience. You'll hear from TA game-changers who are rewriting the rules, exploring out-there tactics, and blazing a trail for the future of talent.
If you’re tired of hearing that hiring is broken and are ready to do something about it, make sure to subscribe. Let's set fire to the way things have always been done. It's time to throw out the playbook!
