Adelaide Talent Meetup: Crafting Hiring Journeys That Actually Work!

We’re back for another Adelaide Talent Meetup—this time, we’re flipping the script on hiring.

Brought to you by our event sponsor, Checkmate, this session is all about rethinking recruitment journeys with empathy, simplicity, and smarter design. If you’re a TA, HR, P&C, or recruitment professional in South Australia who wants to reduce drop-off, improve alignment, and design for better hiring experiences - this one’s for you!

What You’ll Learn:

We’re putting the candidate at the centre of the conversation and exploring how to design hiring journeys that work for everyone—candidates, hiring managers, and talent teams.

🟣 Journey Mapping: What we discover when we view the process from the candidate’s perspective

🟣 Pain Points: The parts that frustrate people—and how to design them out

🟣 Comms & Feedback: Why clarity and speed matter more than ever

🟣 Verification Steps: How to make checks feel part of the journey—not a clunky add-on

🟣 Automation vs Human Touch: What to automate, and what to personalise

🟣 Co-Design: Ways to build better hiring experiences with your hiring managers

🟣 Case Studies: Real examples of what redesigning a process actually looks like
