The Accidental Occupation - Nigel Pena
from The Accidental Occupation Hosted by The Accidental Occupation
My guest today is, Nigel Pena, whom I hereby name, The Unsung Hero of Corporate Recruitment. I’ll qualify that momentarily. In addition to being unsung, he is reluctant. Don’t get me wrong, if you look for him, you will find him. But where you will not find him is blogging, sharing the newest recruitment tips and tricks on LinkedIn and god forbid at one of the “far-to-many” HR/Talent Acquisition meet-ups, summits and networking sessions. It’s not that those activities are beneath him. It’s that he’s chosen to be a Ronin…a consummate master in his field that travels the road alone, serving those in need of his expertise with a level of passion and integrity that I haven’t seen well….ever. While he doesn’t express it in an open forum (this podcast is a major exception), you can tell by listening to him that he is constantly thinking about it. “It” being, the candidate experience, his consultative approach with his clients and lastly, his disillusionment with the current state of the recruitment industry. No wonder you can’t find him out there in the ether, preaching….he’s far too busy…practicing.
