If you dread hearing the words “we need to hire for an open position”, you’re not alone! Creating a hiring process that’s a positive experience for everyone involved can be tough! That’s why I was intrigued when I heard Sophia O’Rourke talking about how she turned her company’s convoluted hiring process into one that she deemed “Plug and Play”.
Sophia loves to build people initiatives and processes that allow her to create something from the ground up. And that’s exactly what she has done in her current role as Director of People & Culture at Newstory. Sophia set out to build a hiring process that was a positive experience for everyone involved - her People Ops team, hiring managers, and the candidates themselves - and joined us to share her journey.
