Show Notes

Prepare for a glass of cold water in your face! Dr Sullivan challenges our point of view on just about everything.


In this episode


  • A first for us, Dr Sullivan went to school for this, he has a degree in Personnel (1969) and worked in the tech sector ever since. 


  • Let's unpack what you mean by: Recruitment & Retention must be data driven’. And it's not ‘time to hire’. 


  • All the talk about inflation and recession, we need to ask, is the company you work for in a recession? 


Our favourites from this episode:


  • Quality of hire is a smoke bomb 
  • HR people are chicken
  • Candidate sourcing is so last year
  • Talent Acquisition should report to the COO
