On this episode of the You Own The Experience podcast, Robert Mann is joined by Jessica Rowen, National Marketing Manager at TalentWorld, a Toronto-based staffing firm that takes a tech- and marketing-first approach to recruiting.

The pair also chat about: How automation can help to ensure recruiters have enough time to level up in marketing. The three main areas of focus for firms who want their teams to be more marketing-savvy. The similarity between the sales funnel and the hiring process. Whether candidate nicknames are a solid staffing metric. Check out the episode to learn more.
