Description

With Claire McNamara, Global Head of Talent Acquisition at ResearchGate.

ResearchGate is a social networking platform for scientists and researchers with over 19 million users. With a leadership team that includes two virologists, ResearchGate sprang into action quickly, shifting their team of almost 200 employees to a fully remote work setup during the onset of Covid-19.

As a senior recruiter with 20 years experience, Clare McNamara joins host Maddie Duke and shares her insights on the sudden shift to remote work, recruiting remotely, compliance challenges, navigating the psychological shift for employees as well as the complexities of talent relocation during border closures, travel restrictions and a continuing global pandemic.

The State Of Work is brought to you by Lano, providing all the tools necessary to build and manage a global team in one place, as well as an all-in-one app for freelancers to manage clients, invoices, and payments. 

The State Of Work is produced by Fiona Laughton and Maddie Duke.
