“In 2015, I would like to move the talent focus away from purely immediate and short term needs and place greater emphasis on 5 and 10 + years ahead. The
drive should be to arm ourselves against key succession gaps and work in collaboration as organizations to influence the next generation of talent.”
Jennifer Candee Head of Global Talent Acquisition
SABMiller
“How can the TA team be laser
focused on game changing recruiting strategies for the business? We can’t do what
we have always done, so what are we doing differently in the key areas of Talent Delivery,
Talent Operations and Talent Pipelines to win top talent for
our organization.”
Melissa Thompson Sr. Director, Talent Acquisition
Citrix
“2015 is the year of improving human experiences in recruiting. My new year’s resolution is to stop having the circular conversation, “the candidate is a customer and the customer is also a candidate.”
Everyone is a customer, period. At every step, ask ourselves this question: Is that how we should treat our customers?”
Phil Hendrickson Chief Talent Strategist
Qwalify
“I’ll continue to use creative ways to engage and invigorate
our employee talent ambassadors. One idea we are exploring is asking employees to be a part of telling our story
with infographics or selfie videos that we can post on our
career site and social media properties. This is a fun and
creative way to share authentic and meaningful employment
brand messages.”
Brett Underhill Director, Recruiting Programs
Prudential Financial
“First: Let at least 3 people per day know how grateful I am for them in specific terms. Second: Never use HR or TA lingo or
language... always talk in business terms.”
Brendan Browne Sr. Director of Global Talent Acquisition
Mike Bailen Director of Recruiting
Eventbrite
“My professional resolution for 2015 is to reach out and
get to know industry experts and thought
leaders outside of the TA space. Gaining diversity of thought and perspective is the catalyst for new ideas
and innovation.”
“One of my professional resolutions is to better understand
the peripheral niche areas that touch recruiting. I plan on
attending SourceCon to learn how technology is fundamentally changing the way organizations
identify and attract talent. I also plan on attending Direct
Employers, which offers lessons in compliance surrounding our
profession.”
Rob Dromgoole Director of Talent Acquisition
Pacific Northwest National Laboratory
“In 2015, I will ignite the Law of Attraction through digital
storytelling. To me, this means having people identify lululemon
as a brand that they have a connection with and choose. I plan to build authentic buzz
about lululemon athletica as an employer by sharing the stories and experiences of our people.”
Ashley Dalziel Recruitment Manager,
Global Retail and Talent Scouts lululemon athletica
