Here, a senior HR adviser reveals the non-negotiables driving Australian candidates, why outdated recruitment tactics backfire, and how to fix hiring in a market where flexibility and respect reign supreme.
In this episode of The HR Leader Podcast, host Kace O’Neill speaks with Gartner’s senior HR principal, Jasleen Kaur, about why Australian talent prioritises work/life balance over pay, how outdated recruitment tactics drive candidate “ghosting”, and why transparency is key to fixing broken hiring processes.
Kaur also delves into whether employers misunderstand flexibility as a trust issue, how HR can shift from “selling roles” to coaching candidates, what data-driven strategies recruiters must use to challenge unrealistic hiring managers, and why job descriptions sabotage talent attraction.
She further explores whether DEI’s future lies in process-led inclusion (not performative training), how businesses can pre-empt HR/hiring manager breakdowns, what policy shifts prevent “buyer’s regret”, and whether personal growth and micro-cultures will redefine Australia’s talent landscape.
