In this HRchat we discuss ways a comprehensive recruitment funnel can be beneficial to acquiring top talent. Listen too, as we offer some tips for those looking to shake up their employer branding efforts. Our guest today is Luke Switkowski, CEO and Founder of Kognitiv, a company offering Workday consulting and professional support. As one of the founders of Kognitiv, Luke understands that going live with Kognitiv’s new system is just the first step in a long partnership with Workday and its ecosystem. Implementations are fast and furious, with work like reports, dashboards, and knowledge transfer often postponed until after a go-live. Starting Kognitiv gave Luke the space to find and implement a consulting model that made sense logistically and validated his theories on its structure while fostering a work culture fueled on collective team successes and never-ending support for one another.Questions for Luke include:You work with human resources teams at hundreds of companies every day.
