2023 Rally Awards Judges

The esteemed panel of judges in the 2023 Rally Awards.

There were a lot of judges this year, and that’s because we had the most submissions ever in the 4 years that we’ve been producing the Rally Awards. The judging criteria varied according to the category, but in general the judges were looking for strategy, quality, innovation and results. In the coming weeks and months, we’ll be sharing examples of their winning work here on the Rally Recruitment Marketing blog to inspire practitioners everywhere.
