Talent Pool Society’s Post

As we welcome 2025, I’m reflecting on MANY years as a talent acquisition & staffing specialist. What keeps this career exciting isn’t just filling positions—it’s creating pathways for people to achieve their dreams while helping companies grow. I’m grateful for the partnerships built this year. It has been thrilling to connect exceptional talent with opportunities that inspire growth & impact, shaping brighter futures for individuals, families and businesses alike. The best part of my job? Finding great people (sometimes detective like skills at work) for great roles and presenting offers that empower them to build strong foundations for their families. It’s about making a difference—one person (or family) at a time. 💼✨ To everyone I’ve partnered with—whether finding that "purple squirrel" for the new contract you miraculously closed (but now need to magically invent the staff to deliver), coaching candidates through an unfamiliar interview process, working with our honored Veterans as they transition out of the military or my team working with me late into the night to meet an impossibly-possible deadline...I wish you happiness, health, and wealth in 2025. Here’s to a year of endless possibilities and success. Happy New Year! 🎉 #TalentAcquisition #weCANdoGREATthings #CareerEmpowerment #GrowthAndPartnerships #NewYear2025 #itsaboutPeople #bernesemountaindogs

When people ask me what I like most about my job… As a founder wearing a few hats 🎩, this was always a tricky question. But it isn’t anymore. In 2024, what I’ve enjoyed more than anything else is filming employee video stories. 🎬 I get to ask questions like: Why did you decide to apply? What were your first impressions on joining? How have you grown and developed? In what way do you feel supported? Simple questions that result in heartfelt stories 💛 of personal growth, overcoming challenges, and finding new confidence. 🌟 It’s like getting the inside scoop on a story. Seeing first-hand what a difference employers make when they really care about their people. And then we get to help employers share those stories to reach a wider talent audience. 🌍 Bite-sized moments that show why a company is a good place to work, why someone can trust in their career decision. In 2024, as C-Me has grown, it’s been a privilege to work with so many amazing organisations, helping them communicate their culture - their ‘Why us’ - in a format that’s real, engaging, and inspiring. 🙌 I can’t wait for 2025. 🚀 #EmployerBranding #TalentAttraction #HRTech #EarlyTalent #CultureMatters #FutureOfWork #GenzHiring #EmployeeStory

As we approach the end of another year, I find myself reflecting not only on the journey we’ve taken but also on the meaningful impact we’ve created at PeopleScout EMEA.
