“In Your Shoes” Event – How to attract and retain the best talents, with XNode and La French Tech

On 28th February, Talent Fishers took part in a Role Play event “In Your Shoes”, on attracting and retaining the best talents in the team.

Here are some key take-away:

• Employer branding and Employee Value Proposition (EVP) play an important role in the recruitment strategy of the company.
• Before recruitment, a recruiter should have a clear understanding of the actual and future needs of the company and team, including its vision, mission and positioning.
• The recruiter should also have some specific soft-skills (e.g. good listening skills and empathy) to determine if the candidate is a good fit.

Thank you to Fabien Guerin and José Carlos Hassan Suárez for sharing the fundamental equation to optimise the chances of hiring the right talents.
