Liz Ryan: How can we fix our broken hiring practices? US

Good morning,

‘So, why do you want to work here?’ We have all faced this question, in some shape or form, during in an interview process. Many of us may have asked this question of a prospective candidate.

This question, argues Liz Ryan on the latest episode of the HRD Live podcast, is a part of all that is wrong with our broken hiring practices. Ryan examines the ways in which we must turn our approach to talent acquisition upside down and address the power imbalance between hirer and hiree across a full recruitment process.

Don’t forget to tune in to the latest HRD Live podcast series.

Thank you!
