Who knew recruitment could be so fun?

Recruitment Speaker

Rosie is professional, entertaining, and easy to work with. She’s organised, proactive, you’ll always have her slides ahead of time and she is eternally early for events (online or in-person) – alleviating the hassle of a last-minute rush or worry that your speaker is a no-show.

Why your recruitment isn’t working

A tour through the common pitfalls that businesses often succumb to when hiring, often without realising, and how to fix them to take your business to the next level.

Do you have the right people on your bus?

“Great vision without great people is irrelevant.” – Jim Collins, Good to Great. How to build a talent strategy that aligns with your business strategy to elevate your business.

Treat your recruitment like marketing to achieve results

Employer Branding isn’t just for the big cats. If you want to see success in your recruitment you need to be thinking holistically and attracting candidates like you do customers. How to build a recruitment marketing strategy to find the passive candidates to transform your business.

Why should candidates care about your cause?

Honestly, truthfully – do you know why you do what you do? Why your business exists? It’s beyond ‘what’ you do – and unlocking that story will be the key to bringing the right people on the journey with you.

Don’t interview – Have conversations

Who really enjoys a job interview? Whichever side of the table you’re sat on, it’s an awkward, sticky process that often focuses too much on box ticking, and not enough on establishing whether you could play on the same team. Flip the script and develop an interview process that works for everyone.

“Rosie has spoken at events for us, both virtually and in live settings and she delivers an energetic, informative, and interesting presentation. Her live workshop at our quarterly elite seminar kept a room of 60+ senior business leaders enthralled and entertained, making light work of strategic recruitment concepts – often a dry subject. More recently Rosie has delivered online workshops for us to a smaller audience, and was still exceptionally professional, engaging and enlightening. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend booking Rosie for an event – and we look forward to working with her again.” Rob Perks, CEO, Inspire Biz
