Episode 464 - Recruiting our Country's Defence Force - with Claire Planinsek

This week on Tapod we sit down with the brilliant Claire Planinsek, Head of Recruitment & Events – Australian Defence Force Careers @Adecco Group. Claire has led some of the largest Talent functions in the region, but to head up recruitment for Australia’s Defence Force dwarf’s them all! We explore all facets of this mammoth program, starting with a team of 1,000 (which includes over 500 Military Personnel that’s right 1,000 working within the Defence Force Recruitment umbrella – 300 of which make up Claire’s team. From organising over 3,000 annual recruitment events to recruiting 1,000s annually and processing over 70k applications. From set intake dates to a process involving numerous stages we get to understand just what it means to run the largest recruitment program in the country (possibly the southern hemisphere).
