  • Aristotle Ocampo

Our Regional Director for APAC, at the table for the whole evening rather than dropping in to say a few words.

Joining us
  • To be announced

A few of the teams we work with in the Philippines will be at the table, sitting with everyone else. They are there to talk about what has worked and what has not, in their own words.

The evening

A table, not a stage.

Most invitations of this kind end in a presentation. This one does not. There is nothing to sit through, nothing projected on a wall, and nobody with a deck.

What there is, is twenty people who spend their working lives hiring at a scale most companies never touch, in one room, for one evening, with enough time to actually finish a thought.

We host because these are the conversations we learn the most from, and December is the right time to say thank you in person. If something useful comes of it afterwards, good. That is not the reason for the dinner.

What the evening is

Around two and a half hours
The room

Twenty seats, one conversation

Small enough that nobody is an audience. A private room, one long table, and no breakout into side groups.

The table

Peers, not vendors

Heads of talent acquisition, recruiting operations and HR, all running volume hiring in the Philippines. You will know the problems everyone at the table has.

The format

No agenda, on purpose

We open with one question and the table takes it from there. Nobody is scheduled to speak, including us.

The point

You leave with names

A room small enough that you will actually meet everyone in it, and everyone in it hires the way you hire.

The venue

To be announced

Metro Manila. We are holding a private room for the evening and will share the name here as soon as it is confirmed.

A set menu, so the evening runs itself. The full address goes out with your confirmation.

Please confirm attendance

This invitation was sent to you personally and the seat is held in your name. A line back either way helps us more than you would think, since the table only works at the size it was planned for.

Twenty seats
Held by name and not transferable. If you cannot make it, saying so early lets the seat go to someone who can.

Your details are used to host the dinner and nothing else. No mailing list.
