Nathan Craigie on Building a Future-Ready Workforce
Q: Is it still worth applying to the hospitality industry if I'm a professional listening to this today, and I've been in an industry, lots of skills, but it's not hospitality, and I'm in my mid-career?
100%. I mean, we've just hired someone to join one of our teams who has just transitioned from a job as a PA to in the banking industry, and she's going to be absolutely amazing in our guest relations department.
Nathan Craigie on Building a Future-Ready Workforce
Q: With the evolution of AI, it's so easy now for candidates to use Chat GPT to create their CV and just auto-click apply for opportunities. Are you finding that you're having to screen a lot of CVs to get the high quality people through the door?
We are seeing a lot of AI generated CVs now, and I think you can tell when you read them, just because the way they're written, it doesn't necessarily fit the regular sort of CV that we're seeing.
Nathan Craigie on Building a Future-Ready Workforce
Q: What is it like just out of interest when you describe someone coming from the bar and moving into finance, when that person transitions, or is at least given the opportunity, what is that like being able to enable that for them?
It's brilliant. I'm sort of like a proud mother hen at that point. Seeing this person that we hired for a completely different job and helping them, supporting them through, it's really amazing to see these people develop a career and follow a dream.
Nathan Craigie on Building a Future-Ready Workforce
Q: What was that like that moment where you realized I need to make a change?
It was scary because I didn't know what I wanted to do. All I'd ever known was being in the kitchen and being a chef.
Level Up Your Career with James Buckley: Transferable Skills and Growth Strategies
