Case study - transforming recruitment - Jennifer Kennedy
Jennifer will explain how an organisation applied agile methodologies to their existing recruitment process and completely transformed it. Find out how the employee experience was put right at the heart of the new design. Learn about the dramatically improved employee journey which lead to a reduction in short term turnover; a reduction in candidates dropping out between job offer and start date; an increase in employee experience and improved credibility with business areas. She will also touch on how to apply for the virtual world.

Jennifer has worked in various HR roles for the last 20 years, predominately in financial services. She started applying agile techniques to her work 5 years ago and now works as a Scrum Master and Agile Coach within the People function of a well known bank.
