The consulting industry is navigating one of its most challenging recruitment landscapes in recent years. Competition for top talent is fiercer than ever and hiring top-tier talent has become extremely difficult, with firms struggling to differentiate themselves in a crowded market. For forward-thinking consulting firms, employee-generated video content is emerging as a powerful solution to cut through the noise and showcase what makes their workplace genuinely unique.
In this episode of Impact at Work, Karyn McShane, Talent Attraction and Mobility Manager, takes us inside one of Australia’s biggest annual hiring operations: the national Christmas peak campaign at Australia Post.
Each year, Karyn’s team recruits over 3,700 casual hires to keep parcels moving during the busiest delivery season of the year. But as she explains, the real story isn’t just about scale, it’s about designing processes, building trust, and leading change from within.
If you’re working in high-volume, operational or process-led recruitment, this episode is packed with practical, people-centred insights.
“Show me the ROI.”
Four words that strike fear into the heart of every internal communications professional. You know your video-first strategy is working – employees are more engaged, feedback is overwhelmingly positive, and the buzz around company updates has never been stronger. But when it comes to proving concrete business value to senior leadership, many comms teams struggle to move beyond vanity metrics and anecdotal evidence.
The truth is, measuring internal communications impact has always been challenging. But video content offers unprecedented opportunities to track, analyse and demonstrate real business value in ways that traditional text-based communications simply cannot match.
Leadership is evolving, and so is talent acquisition. In this episode of Impact at Work, Amy Schultz shares how the two are intersecting as business models shift, AI accelerates, and the role of people leaders becomes more complex than ever.
With experience spanning agency, in-house, tech, and RPO, Amy brings a refreshing honesty to what leadership really looks like during times of change and how talent teams can stay human, curious, and commercially relevant as the world of work transforms.
