High volume recruitment has gotten more challenging. The talent landscape has shifted. Compensation is skyrocketing and more companies are focused on automation and AI to shorten the hiring process, while additionally concentrating on skill-based hiring rather than requiring candidates to hold specific degrees and certifications.

Companies with high volume hiring needs are in intense competition with each other as they strive to differentiate themselves and attract the best talent, all while navigating competing priorities and working to ensure strong talent retention.

Watch the recording of webinar with Jeanette Leeds, Kelly Burlage, Amber Colwell and Christin Warmbold as they discuss how their teams are successfully managing high requisition loads while delivering excellent experiences to their candidates and stakeholders.

Key discussion points of this webinar include:

  • Creating a recruitment process balancing speed and quality
  • Effectively using technology in high volume recruitment
  • The value of human touch
  • A strategic approach to High Volume Hiring

The world of diversity, equity and inclusion doesn’t stand still.

The critical themes, challenges and solutions are a moving target amidst our fast-changing world of work and rising employee expectations. DEI is no longer a singular initiative that is 'nice to have', it is expected to be woven throughout the fabric of how we work.

How do we prioritise DEI when everything else feels like a priority too?

We listen. We talk. We collaborate. We learn. The DEI Knowledge Exchange was built out of the desire to advance the DEI conversation by bringing people together to share experiences and lessons learned.

DEI When Sourcing & Attraction Get Tough - Recording available

When the market for talent is tough, it can be easy to let your commitment to DEI fall to the wayside. Our panel will explore different talent levers – from EVP, sourcing and attraction, to technology – that can help leaders stay committed to DEI. Our focus will be on practical strategies to keep your DEI momentum going.

Embracing Disability in the Workplace

The Role of Internal Mobility to Drive DEI
Thursday, August 18 | 3:00-4:00 PM GMT | 11:00 AM - 12:00 PM ET

As the competition for talent intensifies, we’re seeing a renewed focus on internal mobility. While mobility is a fantastic approach to improve retention, it is also helping to create pathways for diverse talent to pursue new opportunities within an organisation.

So Many Workers, So Many DEI Priorities
Thursday, October 13 | 3:00-4:00 PM GMT | 11:00 AM - 12:00 PM ET

From permanent to contingent and hourly workers, and every category in between, today’s workforce is more blended and fluid than ever before. Is it realistic to focus on DEI for every category of worker? Different audiences require different approaches to recruit and retain talent, and this complexity means DEI initiatives can get lost in the shuffle.

Repurposing the purpose of Graduate Programmes

  • What’s the difference between the purpose and the value of graduate development programmes?
  • How do graduate programmes impact the ‘EI’ in DEI?
  • How do you measure the success of graduate programmes? And should you measure their success?

Think you know the answers? This webinar will make you think again.

Development of early talent is paramount to developing a sustainable workforce for the future. But at times it seems stuck in the past. Dr. Jane Clark’s recent research reveals the real, and often over-looked value that graduate, and other early career development programmes can have for organisations and the graduates themselves. In this webinar, Jane shared three themes that came out of her research.

In the face of the global pandemic, competition for talent is fiercer than before. The pharmaceutical and life sciences sector is no exception.

Everyone wants the best talent for their teams but finding and retaining talent has become more challenging in the past year.

There is no such thing as “future-proofing” your business. But there is workforce dexterity. Workforce dexterity allows businesses to stay flexible and adaptable. To scale up and down. To respond—and respond quickly—to changing needs. Your TA function is one of the best tools to help you get there.

In this webinar, we discussed:

What a ‘great’ TA function looks like and how it can work to drive workforce dexterity.

How to address challenges—huge and immediate or moderate and proactive—to transform your TA function.

How to create more automation and limit the non-value-adding tasks.

How to achieve powerful data & insights, that enables strategic & operational decision-making.
