    About this Episode

    Join Lauren and Craig as they sit down with Andrea Kirby (Director and Owner of Recruitment Events, #RecFest, RL-100 and Reconverse here in Australia).
    Who better to talk about the impact of Coronavirus on TA than AK? It's affecting us all and in this poddie we try to keep a sense of humour whilst we stare into the abyss... It's frightening, but we do it with a giggle and a commitment to supporting our TA Community. Listen up... you're working from home, so we know you have a little time.

    Episode 308 - Discrimination following Maternity leave... it's time to call it out.

    Episode 308 - Discrimination following Maternity leave... it's time to call it out.

    This week on TaPod we jump head-first into International Women’s Day celebrations (or as Lauren says… International Women’s Week), by catching up with our great friend Sarah Purches – Talent Strategy & Experience Manager at RMIT Online.

    Sarah’s journey is an inspiration and let’s just call a spade a spade – we just don’t talk enough about parental leave and all the pressures surrounding the massive life changes it brings with it. Up to 50% of women experience discrimination in the workplace when returning from maternity leave and that’s just not good enough. We talk MAFS… menopause & IWD cupcakes. This episode is pretty Raw. Let’s explore… (and that rhymes in case you missed it).

    Thank you to Avature for supporting us in March – we appreciate it!
