E121 | The Smarter Way To Job Search with Sam Franklin

If you struggle with recruitment, either as a recruiter or a job hunter, then don’t miss this week’s episode with Sam Franklin. Sam is co-founder and CEO of Otta, the recruitment company helping job seekers find roles at the world’s most innovative companies. Formerly a consultant at McKinsey, and then Interim Head of People at Nested.com, Sam cut his teeth working on the pressing problems of this fast growing startup. At Nested, he formed the Business Operations team and led the Recruitment, HR and People Operations teams. It was in this latter role that he realised how soul-destroying the recruitment process was for many applicants. So he set up Otta with two other co-founders with the aim to be the number one platform for job seekers looking for jobs in tech firms in London. They went niche because, simply, that is what they’re passionate about. This is a fantastic story about how to solve recruitment from the candidates’ perspective and how to potentially drive good behaviour from employers so they get the best people applying for their jobs. Don’t miss this great conversation, we hope you enjoy it as much as we did.  On today’s podcast:The Otta story How Otta differs from other hiring platformsHiring diverse candidatesHow to write a cover letterTinder for jobsRating a company’s interview experience
