Over the past 12 months (2017) my advisory business, Digital Safari has led a project to develop a series of experiments to explore how large financial institutions can best leverage talent ecosystems to source, attract and engage with scarce talent.
Key project highlights include:
- Identifying and partnering with talent pools across academia to immediately deploy at the point of need
- Re-designing the customer journey for gig-workers and freelancers to join the bank as employees
- Reducing the time it takes to recruit talent from approx. 120 days to 14 days
- Reducing the reliance and cost of recruitment agencies
- Delivering a series of workshops and presentations to senior stakeholders evangelising an ecosystem approach
