Socially Unacceptable

Unlock the secrets to recruiting and retaining the crème de la crème of the marketing world with Melanie Parker, our esteemed guest who's an expert in the recruitment landscape. Melanie lays bare the harsh reality of an outdated educational system failing modern marketing needs, while we sprinkle in tales from my own recruitment playbook, emphasising why a strong portfolio and experience trump any unpaid internship. With Melanie's savvy insights, we chart a course for businesses to navigate the rough waters of the talent gap and come out on top.
Ever wonder how mid-sized companies can go toe-to-toe with the big dogs in the battle for talent? Melanie and ourselves shine a light on the strategic importance of a company's 'why' as we dissect how to craft an employer brand that resonates with the desires of today's job seekers, especially when it comes to remote work. We don't just stop there; we also tackle the thorny issue of AI in marketing, from automating the mundane to sparking a renaissance in creative thinking.
Our convo takes a turn down the culture corridor, revealing how current employees can be your best billboards and why a shift from rigid hierarchy to a flatter, more inclusive workplace is winning the day. And if you're curious about how professionals are championing a new work-life balance, or why the North is the next big thing for career movers and shakers, you'll want to lend an ear. So, sit back, press play, and equip yourself with the strategies to ensure that your marketing team not only survives but thrives in today's digital jungle.
