Scrap the CV: it's time to start selecting for potential
Thursday, 9th June 2022
11:00am - 12:00pm BST

Year after year, someone predicts the death of the CV. And yet, year after year, employers keep on using it. Why? Our research suggests a perceived lack of alternatives. The CV is rarely seen as the best tool, but rather the only tool. Until now, that is.

Because, with a helping hand from technology, some employers are finally scrapping the CV for good. For the first time, they’re finding ways to put potential over past experience.

And it’s just as well – today, we’re in the middle of the greatest skills mismatch since the Industrial Revolution. As the digital economy looks set to create nearly 100m new roles in just three years, selecting for experience no longer makes sense. It’s time to find new ways to assess job fit. In this webinar, we’ll explore how a few pioneers are doing just that.

In this webinar, you’ll uncover:

  • Why now is the time to scrap the CV

  • The common barriers to making the change, and how to overcome them

  • How pioneering TA leaders get internal buy-in to scrap the CV

Join us, and learn everything you need to scrap the CV, and start selecting for true potential instead.
