We've been busy at Equity Activations coming up with impactful solutions to your People strategy challenges. Every company has them. Smart companies will solve them. That's why we created The Interview Arc.
The Interview Arc is a program that trains your interview panels while your recruiters focus on recruiting. Curious if you need it? There's a link at the bottom to take our free assessment.
To celebrate the launch, we're releasing The Reqs.
Follow along our fictionalized TA team as they encounter real world recruiting challenges and how our new offering could help them. Because recruiting is hard.

Episode 1: "Just Check the Link"
Hey so tell me about this candidate again?
Sidra was just about to do a phone screen when the Slack popped up. She looked at the name and the time.
You mean the one you have in 5 minutes?
Yeah.
Did you look at the interview kit link in your calendar?
I was just about to. Just came from a meeting so wanted to check in with you first.
With me for what exactly? Sidra thought. But she knew. Cam didn't want to click the link or read. How do I navigate this so that I'm not being snarky, she thought.
Because Una told the team that C-suite mentioned in their ELT meeting they were hearing that the Recruiting Team was "acting a little burnt out and snappy" to which Una replied "well you have cut my team in half and the work is the same" and then they moved on further into their agenda to the new AI roll out.
Sidra worried about Una. Sometimes it was like she had a Captain America shield to protect them from things. But even Captain America has moments.
Well, check it out and let me know how I can help!
(She reread it and replaced the period with an exclamation point—because…snarky).
She saw Cam typing….and typing…and typing.
Do you have just like a summary? Not even sure what I should be asking.
BUT IT'S FOR YOUR TEAM, Sidra thought. LIKE A CRITICAL HIRE YOU SAID. Sidra thought in all caps.
Una, did we really have to push interview training to next year?
Uh oh. Do I want to know what happened?
No…it's nothing new. But that training would be SO helpful.
We don't have the time or the money.
But we have the reqs.
We have the reqs.
If this hits too close to home, you're not alone.
When hiring managers skip the prep work, recruiters end up being interview coaches instead of talent strategists.
