Summary

Skills & Expertise

Education

I have worked as a Recruiter in Ireland and the Caribbean for the last 15 years but now run Social Talent, the world’s leading provider of Online Recruitment Training.

We want to change the way that organisations identify talent globally by translating technology and educating front line recruiters through a premium, personalised and practical online learning experience.

Our promise is to deliver the world’s best and most practical recruitment training in a consistent, high quality format, personalised by: who you are, where you are based and what you recruit for.

Our expertise is in identifying and delivering the benefits of a Web 3.0 world to the recruitment industry. Our customers are recruitment agencies, corporate recruiters, headhunters, the HR and marketing departments of hiring organisations and providers of technology solutions to the recruitment industry.

We train recruiters in how to source passive candidates and we advise organisations on how to leverage social media, SaaS technology and video to source, attract and engage talent globally.

We help companies and recruiters to source talent through social media and the web. We enable recruiters and hiring organisations to tap into the “passive” candidate market, which represents over 80% of the total labour pool, by providing them with the tools to source directly from the internet, by building talent communities on social media and helping corporates to develop and market their “employer brand” online in the places where their target audience spend the most time, namely social media.

Specialties: Online Recruitment Training, Social recruiting, boolean search, facebook marketing, social media marketing, talent acquisition, talent community management, internet sourcing, CIPD Certified Internet Recruitment trainer.

Experience

CEOSocial TalentNov 2010 – Present (2 years 4 months)

We want to change the way that organisations identify talent globally by translating technology and educating front line recruiters through a premium, personalised and practical online learning experience.

Our online recruitment training portal (MySocialTalent.com) is an expansive “bible” of everything you need to make the most out of online tools to identify, attract and engage with top talent globally.

Top Recruiters at Oracle, Paypal, Twitter, Accenture, Adecco, Hays and Manpower leverage Social Talent’s online recruitment training to ensure that they hire top talent and outperform their peers.

My job is to think of new ways that technology and Web 3.0 tools can help the recruitment profession and teach others through blogging, webinars, consulting and training.

I also try to make sure that the team at Social Talent have fun, break things and go home at the end of each day feeling like we have made a difference to our industry, however small.
