SocialTalent Content Release – Q3, 2022
Every month at SocialTalent we release brand new content onto our e-learning platform. The goal? To ensure that our users have access to the most up-to-date insights on all the topics that matter to them most. Informed by our solution pillars – Recruiting, Interviewing, DEI, Internal Mobility, Onboarding, and Leadership – we have partnered with renowned industry experts to create learning items that are not only engaging, but are steeped in practical, actionable advice.
This quarter saw a huge focus on our new Internal Mobility and Onboarding Training Solutions in particular. After acquiring Careercake’s incredible library of award-winning video content on these topics, SocialTalent was able to scale and expand its offering. Exciting times!
Let’s take a look back at some of the best content we launched over the last three months!

2. Diversity, equity, and inclusion
Inclusion and Belonging in the Workplace
This series of missions from DEI specialist, Mo Abdullah will enable both leaders and employees to make workplaces a more fair and equitable place for all.

Gender Beyond the Binary
In this mission, author and activist lisa luxx, will explain the basics necessary to understand pronouns beyond the binary. It will give a foundation as to why people use particular pronouns, and what is meant by phrases such as ‘non-binary’, ‘gender fluid’, and more. The intention of this mission is for learners to have the language and background to be supportive of their colleagues or employers.
3. Interviewing
Building a Neuro-inclusive Hiring Process
Even though approximately one in three people are neurodivergent, most companies aren’t neuro-inclusive. In this mission by author and inclusion expert Theo Smith, you will learn what neurodiversity is, why it is important, and how being more neuro-inclusive will positively impact the performance and sustainability of talent within your organization.

Career development, with Dr. Bev Kaye
Career mobility is up to each person to examine and define – you decide how and when you’ll grow. In these three missions by Dr. Bev Kaye, you will discover a framework with six possible ways to grow, develop, and learn. These can all be building blocks to create your unique career pattern. Learn how to create conversations between you and your managers that help you reach your full potential. And discover how not to be a talent hoarder as a manager!
