If you are a current or aspiring recruiting leader, an executive recruiter, or a talent technology vendor wondering what keeps corporate recruiting leaders up at night, the “Big Fish in the Talent Pool” podcast is your new best friend. Through the magic of podcast technology, I capture my coffee conversations with current Fortune 500 Global Heads of TA exclusively, about the joys and challenges of TA leadership.
For our inaugural episode, we caught up with Fidelity Investments’ SVP and Head of Talent Acquisition Tara Noonan Amaral. She is the embodiment of Sheryl Sandberg’s “Lean In” concept. She has taken the hard assignments, overcome huge obstacles, taken risks, and gained keen insights she shares candidly with our audience. In fact, my interview with her is rich enough that we divided it into three parts. Topics include employment branding, her favorite new technologies, culture, and unconscious bias in hiring, global team management, smart sourcing, the state of RPO, and more.
The three parts of my interview recorded at the last ERE event, in Minneapolis, are below. Also, if you want to sign up for future episodes, stay tuned to ERE or go to my Soundcloud page.
