Creating the shift that fixes hiring and candidate experience
I help companies fix what AI won’t – human connection – saving your hiring managers and recruiters time, money and hassle.
I’m Katrina Collier. Author, facilitator, speaker and mentor.
Together let’s fix the hiring issues AI will amplify
Company leaders are under pressure to implement AI and cut costs. Seen as a cost centre, this leaves talent acquisition vulnerable. Rightly or wrongly.
It is time to show your value and take back your power. Even in the dumpster fire of the 2020s. Even with job insecurity. The time is now!
Technology won’t fix the human collaboration and communication issues that screw up hiring. Nor can hiring be fully automated. But writing Reboot Hiring I saw evidence of companies trying.
ENOUGH!
Using my 21 years of experience, I help recruiters become valued partners to the business and I show hiring managers how to get out of their own way.
The result: greater confidence, improved human connection, better candidate experience and retention, and companies saving time, money and hassle when hiring.
If you want to optimise the human side of talent acquisition, let’s talk.
Empowering talent acquisition and upskilling hiring managers
Laid off in 2020. Rehired for the 2021/2022 overhiring. Thrown out again in 2022. Under rehired in 2023. Lacking job security or confidence in leadership in 2024. Today, talent acquisition is often underfunded, undervalued, overloaded and burning out.
Search for the priorities of CEOs in 2024, and implementing AI fast and outcompeting with technology ranks high. The focus has shifted away from hiring and retention, leaving talent acquisition in the crosshairs of cost-cutting. Unfortunately, the detrimental financial impact of candidate experience on employer and consumer brands is rarely clear to the C-suite.
Many employed TA pros want to keep their heads down, but it’s make-or-break time. If you don’t start showing your value and speaking in a way leaders understand, explaining the foolhardiness of fully automated hiring, and all the obvious reasons why AI cannot do your job, leaders will try.
I will help you convert your leaders into champions of TA.

In her mission to create environments where candidates are appreciated, nurtured, supported and, later, grown and developed, Katrina challenges recruiters to focus on the human being at the end of every transaction. Katrina is a born leader and teacher, and she leaves every “student” in her path a more inclusive, empathetic, savvy and productive recruiting professional.
