Peopletree Soundbites Episode 6: Is your company just a job—or a stage in your career story?
Episode Overview
Too often, hiring focuses on filling a position rather than aligning personal career aspirations with company ecosystems. But what if employees approached job searches differently—starting with their own career goals and finding the right people ecosystem to support them?
In this episode, we challenge the traditional recruitment mindset and explore how employees can take ownership of their career paths. We dive into the power of career anchors, the importance of relationships in hiring, and how organizations can foster engagement by matching talent with purpose.
If you’re an HR leader or business leader looking to attract and retain top talent, this is a must-watch conversation on transforming recruitment into a true ecosystem fit.
