The unexpected mismatch in expectations between candidates and employers and what to do about it, plus how to use GenAI to transform your GenZ engagement strategy | With Bright Network’s James Uffindell
Description
James Uffindell is the CEO and founder of Bright Network. And he’s on a mission to build the workforce of tomorrow, using technology and data to connect the world's most forward-thinking organisations with the UK's brightest students and graduates –– improving the diversity and social mobility of our talent pools in the process.
As if that’s not enough, James also supports young entrepreneurs by offering advice and networking opportunities that would have otherwise been inaccessible.
What does that mean in reality? There’s not a lot about what students and graduates want from employers that James doesn’t have a very well-informed perspective on.
