Hi there! Lucy here, Head of Marketing & Comms @ ATC, dropping into the TWIT feed for a special one off edition – LIVE FROM ATC2023!
That’s right, this week 500+ Talent Professionals from all around Australia and New Zealand converged at Sydney’s Luna Park to talk all things Talent. The past 2-days have featured some incredible insights and takeaways, including:
A HUGE congratulations to Getmee, who took out the prize for the ATC2023 Innovation Lab Talent Tech Pitch Off! Founder and CEO Bala Thavarajah delivered an impressive pitch to a packed room of delegates explaining the merits of their Interview Ready, an interactive AI driven coaching tool which allows candidates to practice their conversational English to help prepare them for job interviews. The Hays’ Choice Award went to Taly, pitched by Peter Treloar, a personality profiling and talent intelligence solution that brings to life the valuable insights from personality data through technology and AI.
And as well as all the incredible content and insights, lets not forget the rides. The games. The great chats and merch at the expo. The gelato. The Party. And the FUN! The vibe on the show floor was honestly electric and it was such a great joy to be amongst it.
This is just a drop in the ocean of the knowledge gems that were dropped this week, so we’ll bring you more over the coming week. If you want to see what the attendees and partners were saying about the event, head on over and take a look at #ATC2023 on LinkedIn.
For our articles this week, we’ve provided a summary of the insights from our speakers that we heard from at Luna Park this week. Stay tuned for next week when we’ll be bringing you a full run-down next week with a new TA industry Guest TWIT Editor (Who will it be?? ).

A great read from Google’s Strategic Advisor for Employee Experience Dart Lindsley that’ll make you stop and think.
Just as we need to think about our work as a product, we need to think about our C-Suite as our customers. The C-Suite are the people who invest in our Talent Function. But to get their attention and buy-in, you’ll need to know how to talk their language and understand what they actually CARE about.
“You’ll love it here. We’re just like a big family.” We’ve all heard it said in job interviews. In fact, you may have even said it yourself to a candidate when trying to communicate the workplace culture. But there’s a reason why you should avoid using the F-word with candidates.
It’s pretty simple: post a job and jobseekers will apply —right? We all know that it’s not quite that simple… PageUp recently surveyed 180,000 job seekers in a quest to answer this question and compiled the comprehensive results into their Candidate Experience Report; here’s all the important takeaways into a cheat sheet on what really matters to job seekers right now.
Say the words ‘Market Scan’ and you’re immediately thinking “oh man, when am I going to get time to fit that in??” Here’s a nifty way to use Google’s Bard or ChatGPT to give you a comprehensive Market Scan that will help inform qualify (or nullify…) your job brief before you start working on it.
Imagine you’re a chef, and your kitchen is the bustling recruitment hub of your organisation. The dish you’re preparing? Success; served up through the fine art of strategic alignment. This is a read that will make you think and make you hungry.
