Assertive Talent Management with Ashleigh Anderson of Credit Karma

On this episode of the Talent Acquisition Leaders podcast, host Ryan Dull speaks with Ashleigh Anderson, Vice President of Global Talent Acquisition for Credit Karma, about the need for talent acquisition specialists to assert their role within businesses.

Ashleigh gained valuable experience in talent acquisition long before coming to Credit Karma. She worked as a recruiter and talent manager for several organizations, including Microsoft, before entering her current role. This rich background taught her the value and importance of the talent acquisition role within any business.

Ashleigh trusts her own expertise and is confident that she knows best when it comes to hiring and managing a team. She isn’t told by her organization how many hires they need, or what kind of people they’re looking for. Instead, she tells them what the needed roles are, and how she intends to fill them.

By being an advocate for her position and her knowledge, Ashleigh has given herself the freedom to organize and build teams in ways that she thinks will be most beneficial. Her success has won her the trust of her colleagues and supervisors, and she continues to champion this assertive approach to talent management.
