Ep 227: Challenging Recruiting Norms
Contact: matt@metashift.co.uk\n Despite an influx of technology over the last 20 years, the fundamentals of recruiting haven't really been disrupted. So how should we be challenging recruiting norms which no longer deliver what employers need and are process and mindset more important than technology?\n To help me answer these questions, and more besides, my guest this week is Matt Buckland making a welcome return to the show. Matt is currently Founder and Head Of Talent at Rainmaking Venture Studio and has been experimenting with some new approaches to make hiring fairer and more effective.\n In the interview, we discuss:\n \u2022 The importance of challenging assumptions\n \u2022 Using data to uncover bias and why bias is a loaded word\n \u2022 Anonymous testing\n \u2022 Why process is critical\n \u2022 Making culture and mindset shifts rather than relying on techniques and technologies\n \u2022 Matt also talks about the recruiter networking group DBR and shares his thoughts on the future of recruiting.\n Subscribe to this podcast in Apple Podcasts
