  1. Question 1StrategyVideo

    Imagine this scenario: the company requires half of the hires that were made this year but the recruitment budget remains the same. How can you increase the number of hires, with the same budget, without sacrificing quality?

  2. Question 2Stakeholder ManagementAudio

    There is a hiring manager in the business who doesn't understand why diversity in their team is so important and why they can't just hire more of the same people they already have because they work well together. Imagine you are having a meeting with this hiring manager to explain the benefits of diversity. Please record your explanation here.

  3. Question 3Leadership

    Imagine that you start a new role in an organization where Talent Acquisition seems to be more of a sourcing function in the business and has little influence over hiring manager decisions. This makes the process very long and frustrating and often leads to high attrition rates as hiring managers want to hire more people 'like them'. What could you do to help change this dynamic where Talent Acquisition is seen as a required business partner to hiring managers and take back some of the control in the hiring process? Brainstorm in the document below.
