Key Sessions:

Applying cutting edge research to solving TA Challenges

• Data is the backbone of our industry. It’s vital to everything we do. But data that isn’t relevant or tailored for you, or is applied to a different context, can be counter-productive. You need data you can believe in.
• Dave Walstow and Jonny Heyhoe, Creed Comms will demonstrate how talent insights can be revealed to better understand candidates and the market – and how they can be applied into an action plan to revamp your TA strategy.

Crafting relevant candidate experience at scale: The blueprint for successful Talent Attraction

• As the battle for talent intensifies, how can you ensure your recruitment efforts are not only targeted but also scalable?
• Jennifer Johansson, Founder & CEO of Placed will explore the intersection of creating relevant candidate experiences and leveraging programmatic sourcing to revolutionise your talent attraction strategy.

Superhuman Hiring: Redefining the relationship between hirers and AI-powered technology

• The rise of AI is transforming the hiring landscape, creating a new relationship between hirers, candidates, hiring managers, and the technology that supports them.
• This session explores what “superhuman hiring” really means—how AI is evolving from a tool to a partner, empowering hirers to make better, faster, and more informed decisions.
