Back in May, I spoke to author Scott Berkun about Design Thinking, and we touched on some of the ways it can be used in talent acquisition. I now wanted to dig a bit deeper into some of the practicalities of this and explore the value that design thinking can bring to recruiting.\n\nMy guest this week is Jodi Brandstetter, talent strategy consultant and author of the book Hire By Design.
