DTC recruitment: Why you can’t find the right talent – and how you can fix that problem
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode of Tash Talks TV, Tash sits down with Luke Plane, founder of Fulfilled Talent, to discuss why recruitment in e-commerce is broken—and what brands can do to attract and retain the best talent.
Luke shares:
- Why so many brands struggle to hire—and how they’re getting recruitment wrong
- How rising salaries, talent shortages, and remote work are reshaping the hiring landscape
- Why employer branding is the real secret to hiring top-tier candidates
- The battle between agency vs. in-house hiring and when to use each
- How Fulfilled Talent is disrupting the recruitment model with a fresh approach
From the myths about “unicorn hires” to why culture is just as important as salary, Luke’s insights will change the way you think about hiring in e-commerce.
