We are on the floor of TA week in San Diego, California, and chatting with Mike ‘Batman’ Cohen about why he loves TA week and how it provides authenticity, vulnerability, and acceptance in the talent world. Mike goes on to explain what DEI hiring is, why it is so important, and how people in talent acquisition need to take the safety of their employees seriously. Looking deeper at safety, Mike explains that it is more complex than fire drills; it is about using vulnerability to go beyond the surface level. You will hear about why there is no right way to do recruiting, what it means to be human, the dissemination of information, and Mike shares the best career advice he has received.
