At CareerShapes, we believe better hiring decisions are built on structure, clarity, and consistency.

Emma Wickham founded the company in 2024 to help SMEs improve how they hire and run interviews, so they can make more confident, consistent hiring decisions.

With over 10 years’ experience in recruitment across start-ups and multinational organisations, Emma has seen first-hand how inconsistent interview processes lead to poor hiring outcomes, and how much difference a structured approach can make.

Her background in Genetics & Cell Biology and Regenerative Medicine brings a research-driven, analytical mindset to her work, focusing on evidence, structure, and decision quality rather than instinct-led hiring.

Today, she works with organisations across Ireland to improve hiring processes, strengthen interview quality, and support better decision-making in recruitment.
