What we’re about
Welcome to the Melbourne Talent Meetup - the local community for professionals working in Melbourne's talent (TA/People) industry.
Our Why:
The work our industry delivers affects many people on many levels. Hence, we strongly believe anyone who works in talent also has a social responsibility. We're focused on knowledge-sharing and collaboration while elevating the standard of talent practices and giving a voice to others in the industry.
Our Commitment:
We're committed to breaking down barriers and stereotypes in our industry while creating a safe and inclusive space that welcomes anyone working in the wider People space.
Attending our Meetups:
We run topical meetups with speakers as well as #MelbTalentSocial events throughout the year. We typically announce them 3-4 weeks in advance, and we'd love to see you at one of our next ones. It's a great opportunity to meet and network with like-minded professionals. You'll hear from talent leaders and influencers on a range of topics such as the latest trends, new tools and other insights that will enable you to learn.
Furthermore, we dedicate our attention to pressing matters such as mental health, ensuring that these conversations remain relevant and timely.
How You Can Support Us:
Our meetups and events are all organised voluntarily. The ticket price and support from sponsors are what enable us to continue to deliver high-quality events. If you're keen to supporting our community, contact us about sponsoring and speaking opportunities - [email protected].
Creating A Safe Space For Everyone:
The #MelbTalentMeetup is an inclusive community, dedicated to providing an empowering experience for everyone who works in our industry. Our meetups are intended to inspire and elevate professionals to excel in their careers. We do not tolerate harassment of members in any form.
Thanks for joining us and helping us positively impact our industry.

## Melbourne Talent Meetup #29 – “The Candidate Experience Crisis: Why Your Best Talent is Slipping Away"
## About the Meetup Event
Are we finding ourselves in a Candidate Experience crisis? Job applicants certainly feel that way.
In 2024, despite all the tools and technology available, candidate experience seems to be at an all-time low – and a staggering number of people feel more neglected and undervalued than ever before.
Candidates expect more from companies while hiring teams struggle with the increased volume of applications and limited budgets. We also see automation without personalisation, over-engineered processes, the impact of AI and economic uncertainty.
Bring this all together and we may really find ourselves in a paradox of modern recruitment. Does it have to be that way? We don’t think so and we’ll talk about it on the 17th of October! We’ll explore why so many companies are missing the mark and, more importantly, how you can do better.
Hear from our two great speakers, Steve Gard and Kylie Lewis who will help you rethink and reshape the way you can engage with talent.
What we’ll cover:
- Uncover the hidden costs of poor candidate experiences
- Learn from people who've cracked the code on applicant satisfaction
- Learn how Human-Centered Design will create a CX people love
- Explore how to uncover hidden insights by stepping into your candidates' shoes
- Discover how to use technology without losing the human touch
This event is brought to you by our friends from Checkmate who will sponsor the night (and rumour has it, there will be cocktails this time!) and Jamie and her team at MUFG will welcome us in their amazing office space.

- Level 10, Tower 4 727 Collins Street Melbourne VIC 3008 (MUFG)
