Overcoming Hiring Challenges in 2025 with Smarter Recruiting Strategies

Networking Breakfast and Roundtable Discussion

In a time of rapid workplace transformation in Canada, hiring the right talent effectively is more critical than ever. Backed by insights from our Indeed economists, along with recent Indeed reports on Work Wellbeing and Smart Hiring, we’ll explore key trends shaping recruitment in 2025 — helping you thrive amid uncertainty.

Join us, Wednesday, May 28, 2025 from 8:30am to 10:30am, along with your fellow HR and TA leaders from out West at the Fairmont Pacific Rim Hotel for an exclusive networking breakfast and roundtable hosted by Indeed. Jacqueline Gallagher, Director of Sales, and her team will welcome you and facilitate an exchange of ideas among peers. Alexandra Tillo, Talent Marketing Consultant, will present key insights on hiring trends and workforce challenges. She’ll then lead a dynamic discussion on some important solutions to address these trends and challenges.

CHALLENGES ADDRESSED:

  1. Challenge: Workforce anxiety amidst economic and political uncertainty
    • Why it’s an issue: Anxiety impacts retention, performance, and job mobility — reducing competitiveness and impacting the candidate pool.
  2. Challenge: Mismatched understanding of quality hiring makes hiring difficult
    • Why it’s an issue: A disconnect between employer needs and job seeker priorities — combined with skill shortages — creates hiring roadblocks.
  3. Challenge: Fear of technology’s impact on the recruitment industry
    • Why it’s an issue: Rapid advancements in AI and automation remain underutilized, limiting efficiency for both recruiters and job seekers.

WHY SHOULD YOU ATTEND?

  • Stay Ahead of the Curve: Gain insights into skills-first hiring, work wellbeing, and technology-driven recruitment strategies.
  • Gain actionable solutions: Walk away with practical frameworks to future-proof your hiring approach in 2025.
  • Network with top HR & TA leaders: Exchange best practices and build valuable connections in the recruitment community.
  • Embrace innovation: Discuss how to integrate AI and emerging tech while maintaining a people-first approach.
