Remember folks, Open Kitchen has now moved to 'Brainfood's Open Kitchen'. First post is already up, Energy Price Inflation Will Formalise 3-2 Hybrid Work. I'm doing votes at the end of every substack post on what the next topic we should explore should be, so far it looks like 'Making Sense of the Economy'
Subscribe here, and get it on Thursdays

What's in the News?
Its Labour Market Paradox 2.0 - the economy with high inflation, surging energy costs and talk of recession, whilst employers continue to struggle to hire. Data from US seems to mirror the data collected here in the UK - what is happening in the rest of the world? Please let me know, probably going to write about this. Decent snapshot from the Recruitment & Employers Confederation, check it out here
Big changes at the top at ATS provider SmartRecruiters. I remember having a conversation with CEO Jerome Ternynck at the very early days of the company and it's been fantastic to witness the development of the product to being one of the leading next generation players in the field. Congratulations on the achievement Jerome and looking forward to next chapter. In Jerome's own words here
Here's a product which solves some universal problems that recruiters face - too many tools, too little integration between those tools. Some interesting features in this platform which I don't think would have emerged had the founder not himself had recruiting experience at the coalface. Great to see this, especially coming from Asia. Read about it here

Brainfood Live On Air - Ep171 - Ethics & Experience - How to Better Do Layoffs, Friday 9th September, 2pm BST
One of those tough situations which we all need to get better at. You never know if you are going to be a manager having to deal with making team members redundant. Is there an ethical way to do this, which centres the experience of the most heavily impacted? And how do you handle it if you're still hiring in other areas? We're with Christine Ng, Head of Talent & Media (Quantum Motion), Brian Evje, HR Lead (NREP), Kate Bischoff,?Attorney & HR Consultant (k8bisch LLC ) & Margaret Buj, Senior Talent Partner, (MixMax) - register here
The Champions of Talent, Friday 9th September, 10.30am CDT / 4.30pm BST
So the conversation I started last Thursday on the neglect of recruiter experience seemed to really hit a nerve - hundreds of comments on the thread! It's clear we need to do more to elevate the industry, and the celebrate the work we do, hence I'm delighted to be kicking off this webinar series with our buddies Paradox, who are launching their 'Champions of Talent' campaign. We are kicking off this Friday when I and and Lauren Kordalski, Director of Talent Acquisition (Paradox) talk about the program and her own experience of scaling up a rapidly growing business. If you care about recruiter experience folks, register here
Introduction to Levelling, Weds 28 September 10.00am BST
You can't really do fair compensation without first levelling your organisation. But....what exactly is levelling, why should you do it and when? It's episode 2 of the webinar series you never imagined would be as thrilling as this! With Alistair Fraser, Founder (Justly), Pavneet Khurana, Head of Inclusion & Projects (Unleashed), Virgile Raingeard, CEO, (Figures) - register here, must attend.

Who's Story?
Jane Moors, Senior Associate, Outerbox Thinking.
I first met Jane 3 years ago when I had the good fortune of visiting Cape Town. Her talk was amazing, great insight aligned with the sort of delivery that you pay money to learn how to do. She has been a friend and supporter of brainfood ever since then, and I knew that I wanted her to tell her story on the Brainfood Tribune. She decided to tell it through describing 5 people who have made greatest impact on her career - find out how they are and why, here
If you have a story to tell and are prepared to go through this exercise in introspection, apply by commenting on this thread and stepping forward. Brainfood Tribune is open to all members, without discrimination

Who's Moving?
Kyle Lagunas joins Aptitude Research as Head of Strategy and Principal Analyst. Never mind Kyle, I am excited to see this move, there are enough great TA professionals in the world but not enough folks who are great sector analysts. This move should improve the overall access to talent intelligence the rest of us need. Congratulations Kyle and well done Madeline!
Aylin Abdullah joins Scandit as Director of Employer Brand and Talent Acquisition, after spending 4 years leading the EB at global semiconductor giant ARM. I first met Aylin at BGL I believe, and one of the very great pleasures of doing brainfood is to able to witness the career progress of the people I have the good fortune to encounter. Congratulations Aylin - this looks like a big job!
Christian Portig joins Atlassian as Manager, Talent Acquisition having spent the last two years in the delivery scale up sector with Getir and Justeat Takeaway. Atlassian have quietly been one of the most successful businesses of the past decade, I can think of few organisations who are better positioned for 'whatever the future may hold' than them. Great move Christian!
Giovanni Di Felice joins Delivery Hero as Team Lead Talent Acquisition - Product & Design after having spent time with fellow Berlin based scale up Zalando, whilst previously also with foodspring and foodpanda. Delivery Hero hiring roles on Brainfood Jobs - one of the few big scale ups still on tear - keep on eye on these guys
Finally, lots of promotions to celebrate Vern Myberg goes up to Regional Manager - Newcastle for Randstad Australia, Matthew Coleman goes up to Client Direct at Korn Ferry, Noora Heikkinen goes up to Principal Talent Partner (Product / Leadership) at Smartly.io, Michaela Dosedělová?goes up to Talent Acquisition Manager at Kiwi.com and Daniela Villavicencio Almeida promoted to Global Recruitment Program Manager at ThoughtWorks - congratulations all!

Robin Haak is harvesting grapes in his new role at Domaine de la Romanée Conti. Loving Robin's journey here, I can think of few people who have embraced experience for its own value as Robin has. Hope someone is documenting all of this hombre!
David Henry launches a new business, Ohana, helping companies connect to consumers based on purpose rather than product. It's an interesting future for brands. Good luck David!

End Notes
So it has finally happened - after having dodged it for the past 2 1/2 years, the 'rona has finally got me. Perfect timing as this is the week where I meant to travel to Gothenberg and Gdansk - now longer happening ?? and Milan and Madrid in jeopardy also. I suppose it had to happen at some point, but the timing could not have been worse. Still, I guess I have been lucky to avoid it thus far, now I am in the club!
Guess I will be in the UK this week...
