Each year, a bigger question about hiring.
Accessing Undiscovered Talent
Our inaugural conference brought global talent leaders to Cork to explore the best ways to reach the talent most companies never see.
How to Do More with Less
Speakers set out why the old talent acquisition model is broken, and how companies can harness hidden talent to do more with less.
The Path to Better Hiring
TA and HR leaders mapped the path to better hiring, from business alignment and candidate experience to employer brand.
Hiring Lessons from the Silver Screen
Talent leaders shared the stage with Ireland’s leading film casting directors, the people who cast Banshees of Inisherin and Normal People, for a day on judgement, imagination and hiring in a machine-obsessed world.
