Is there a recruiter or talent team in your organisation that you believe deserves recognition? New Australian talent awards, the Internal Talent Awards (ITAs) recognise and celebrate excellence in Internal Talent across individuals, teams and organisations.
At last, the Internal Talent Industry has awards to recognise outstanding achievement. Introducing the Internal Talent Awards (the ITA’s).
At the inaugural event on Thursday 19th November 2020, the ITA’s will recognise and celebrate excellence in Internal Talent across individuals, teams and organisations.
The ITAs were born from “TaPod – We talk talent acquisition” podcast co-hosts Lauren Sharp & Craig Watson. Sharp and Watson inspire and entertain listeners during their weekly podcast which shines a light (and a laugh) on the Australian Talent Acquisition community.
In a bid to see how their listeners were navigating their roles mid pandemic, the duo circulated a survey to understand how TA would emerge Post-COVID crisis.
“Over 63% of respondents indicated that the role of Talent Acquisition will have increased responsibilities after the pandemic,” said Watson, Director of Recstra & TaPod Co-Host. “And the Industry deserves a platform to explore, embrace and celebrate these responsibilities.”
“The Internal Talent Industry is filled with unheralded superstars’, said Sharp, Director of Sharp People & TaPod Co-Host. “We’re in the business of changing people’s lives with little fanfare or recognition. It’s time for us to acknowledge the star performers in our industry and highlight the initiatives that bring success to the Talent function.”
