I've written a blog... In my head it's taking what @salesforce are doing with AI and suggesting that maybe, just maybe, talent acquisition is next. Love to hear what you think. https://t.co/lurY0cKmv5 #talentacquisition #hiring #ai

If people were honest, half the job descriptions would read we have no idea what we want. #JobDescriptions #HiringClarity #RecruitmentHumour

No hiring manager enjoys long vacancies. Yet some treat them like a new hobby. #HiringManagerLife #TalentChallenges #RecruitmentReality

If your hiring process needs a map, an FAQ, and emotional support, it isn’t a process. #CandidateExperience #HiringProcess #FixRecruiting

Every time someone asks the ROI of TA, a recruiter updates their CV. #RecruitmentValue #TALeaders #BusinessImpact

Most companies don’t have a talent shortage. They have a decision making shortage. #HiringDecisions #RecruitmentIssues #TACommunity

I’ve built companies, sold companies, and screwed up a few things in between. Oddly enough, the failures taught me more about talent than the wins ever did. #TalentAcquisition #TAstrategy #StartupLife

Three signals a hiring manager isn’t aligned: Vague must-haves, shifting timelines, or saying “I’ll know it when I see it”. Fix alignment before you start. #talentacquisition #tastrategy

AI won’t kill recruiters, but it will expose the ones who’ve been winging it for years. #TalentAcquisition #tastrategy

I grew up in South Africa where “getting on with it” wasn’t advice, it was survival. I wondered if that has influenced how I lead TA teams today? #TalentAcquisition #tastrategy

Here’s a simple hiring clarity framework: Role → Output → Measures → Skills → Behaviours. Write that before you open LinkedIn. #TalentAcquisition #hiring

Most recruitment problems aren’t caused by talent shortages, they’re caused by leadership shortages. #TalentAcquisition #TAStrategy
