Talent Unplugged:Across the Pond is the candid conversation the global talent world has been waiting for. Hosted by Marcus Pask and Megan Conlon, this podcast cuts through the buzzwords and bravado to unpack how hiring, strategy, and technology truly differ across the US and Europe. In every episode, Talent Unplugged: Across the Pond sits down with leaders across the business — from Talent and People to Finance, Sales, and Technology — to uncover how hiring, strategy, and culture intersect across continents. Together, we challenge conventional wisdom and tackle the debates shaping the future of work: the truth about AI in recruitment, the real impact of CV length and resume screening, and how cultural context influences contract negotiations and salary transparency. We also dive deep into strategic talent pipelining, sourcing best practices, and what it really takes to build world-class employer brands in distinctly different markets. If you’re done with the fluff and ready for unfiltered insights from both sides of the Atlantic, this is your new go-to show.
