Another week another news report... Lauren is still o/s and the fabulous Quila Cervelli steps into the role again... Thanks Q!
What makes people leave roles? Millennials looking to social media for career advice...  Which city globally has the most jobseekers per role advertised? And 'fear of missing out' vs 'fear of messing up' what's driving HRTech implementations?
The Scoop will be taking a 2-week break whilst the Tapod Crew hit Europe, but will be back in mid-July with a new sponsor and some sass in our step!

Today on Tapod Quila Cervelli jumps into the co-driver's seat as Lauren continues to add to the list of European countries she's banned from.
We were lucky to speak with an old work colleague of Q's, Gabrielle Bassett (Gab to her friends). As Senior Talent Manager at RMIT University Gab has experienced first-hand the challenges the Tertiary Sector faced during and after the pandemic and how the Talent Function is emerging from the forced hibernation to take a leading strategic role.
We also talk to Gab about the thrill of becoming a published author and educating young readers about diversity, inclusion, and belonging from her own family experience. It's a great listen!
