About this episode
The job market and talent world feels way too confusing right now, so what’s going on?
In this series finale, Hebba is joined by Rie Grant, a Recruiting Manager, Anessa Fike, CEO and Founder of Fike + Co, and Cassandra Smith, Technical Talent Acquisition at NPR, for this last virtual event.
They discuss five questions that get right to the heart of talent acquisition, including how to help candidates stand out in a crowded marketplace, red flags to look for during interviews, and what recruiters are focusing on right now.
Plus you’ll hear the panel’s responses to questions from the live audience.
