Why HR should go to podcast events

A podcast is a series of spoken word digital audio files that a user can download to their personal devices for easy listening. Generally, podcasts have a specific theme.

Since podcasts are all the rage, it makes sense for HR to create internal podcasts for its company or external podcasts for the corporate world at large. These podcasts can be used to disseminate new or obscure information to current employees and new hires. They can also be used for education, culture-building and employee retention. They can talk about things like the work-life balance, innovation and career development. They are a sure-shot way of broadening your horizons, improving your HR skills and learning new things about recruitment and talent management.

Listening to HR podcasts has many, many benefits. They can provide insights into how HR can prepare for the future and what HR professionals should do to become more data-driven and tech-savvy. They can also help lead organizational culture. They teach how to work more efficiently and build strong network connections.

In addition to the above, they arm HR professionals with information on how to improve both candidate experience and employer brand. They teach how to fix problems in the hiring process. They can also give a peek into case studies.

The above are the reasons why the HR department should create podcasts and also listen to podcasts made by other HR professionals. It is a free/cheap way of acquiring great knowledge on various HR topics like recruitment, employee retention and employer branding.
