We’ve got the whole crew together again for this one. By which I mean myself – Alan Walker, Toby Culshaw, Alison Ettridge and Nick Brooks. Since we’ve all been together for 6 months now (I guess you could say we’re official) I skimmed past the intros and moved straight to welcoming our legendary guest for this episode: Vibhu Ganesan, Global Talent Intelligence Lead at Intel. The first topic of discussion was the POWER of video and how will it change the world of Talent Intelligence. A really fascinating topic, which sprouted us all to discuss it’s *future* potential. While our guest Vibhu actually highlighted how video interviews could have an *immediate* benefit to organisations. For example. If you were to conduct two interviews between two very different candidates, you later could use the recording of the hired candidate to build out your ideal candidate persona. As well as using the recording for reference later down the line when a similar position appears. While Nick believed that this advancement should focus on how we make human interaction quantifiable. How are our hiring managers conducting these types of interviews? Are they doing it equitably? Are they staying true to their diverse and inclusive values throughout? We then moved on to a topic that I think will constantly be resurfaced many more times as it seems to be constantly evolving – the meaning behind the phrase ‘Talent Intelligence’. Vibhu highlighted that it really comes down to how we use the word ‘intelligence’.  While some organisations (like Intel) will use it to describe knowledge about competitors and the wider market, other organisations will associate it with the information available about candidates and their profiles. ###### IF THIS WERE THE CASE, WHERE SHOULD TALENT INTELLIGENCE SIT WITHIN AN ORGANISATION? Nick mentioned that while most people associate TI with People Analytics, the evolution of the tech industry (ATS/CRM etc..) could change this idea completely. And result in a wider Central Intelligence Team combining Talent, Sales, Market and Customer. Where tips, methodologies and even tech could be shared? As we were eager to find out more about our amazing guest, I figuratively passed the mic onto our resident hard-hitting interviewer extraordinaires. Very excitedly Alison mentioned that she would go first, referring back to what Vibhu mentioned at the start of the podcast, she asked. How does Intel set themselves apart? ###### “**OUR PROCESS REVOLVES AROUND ON THREE MAIN PILLARS.** ###### **1. ENSURING WE COLLECT THE RIGHT DATA.** ###### **2. MAKING SURE IT’S CONTEXTUALISED AND LINKED TO THE BUSINESS STRATEGY.** ###### **3. SHARING THE COLLECTED INFORMATION.** ###### **WE ARE ALSO ALWAYS LOOKING AT HOW TO BETTER CONTEXTUALISE AND SHARE THE DATA WITH THE WIDER ORGANISATION.”** Questions about the future of Intel, the importance of combining internal and external data and what learnings does Vibhu take from past roles, then followed. One of the final questions that Alison asked is: What is the one thing you wished you had learned earlier? “Looking for more people within the organisation with whom we partner with. It just goes back to what we were saying earlier about joining the dots between all the different departments and teams.” [![Listen now](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/9068086/e173e53a-aa5d-4204-b7d9-4b3066fe8575.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/9068086/e173e53a-aa5d-4204-b7d9-4b3066fe8575)     ## RELATED ARTICLES ### [Sarah Clayton Apr 18 6 min read Talent Intelligence Collective Podcast - the one with Maarten Hansson from Novartis The Talent Intelligence Collective Podcast Start Reading](https://www.stratigens.com/insights/tic-podcast-maarten-hansson-novartis) ### [Sarah Clayton Mar 6 5 min read Talent Intelligence Collective Podcast - the one with Megan Reif from Volvo The Talent Intelligence Collective Podcast Start Reading](https://www.stratigens.com/insights/tic-podcast-megan-reif-volvo) ### [Sarah Clayton Feb 9 7 min read Talent Intelligence Collective Podcast - the one with "our" Alan The Talent Intelligence Collective Podcast Start Reading](https://www.stratigens.com/insights/tic-podcast-alanwalker) [![StratigensLogoWhite](https://www.stratigens.com/hubfs/StratigensLogoWhite.svg)](https://www.stratigens.com/) - SOLUTIONS - [Talent Intelligence](https://www.stratigens.com) - ABOUT - [News](https://www.stratigens.com/news) - TERMS - [Legal](https://lightcast.io/legal-resources) ![stratigensawardslogosupdate-2](https://www.stratigens.com/hs-fs/hubfs/stratigensawardslogosupdate-2.png?width=1751&height=699&name=stratigensawardslogosupdate-2.png) Stratigens is a trading name of Stratcast Ltd DBA Lightcast.
