In a recent LinkedIn post, Hung Lee is offering a unique opportunity for recruiters currently navigating the job market. Lee, who is scheduled to present an award at the IHR 205 Awards Gala, has decided to raffle off his “plus one” ticket to the event, aiming to support members of the Talent Acquisition community seeking their next role.
The IHR 2025 Awards Gala, hosted on Friday, November 26th at the Park Plaza London, promises an evening of networking and industry recognition. The event includes a drinks reception, a three-course gala dinner with wine, and access to the awards presentation, followed by an after-show disco.
A Generous Offer for Talent Acquisition Professionals
Hung Lee framed the initiative as a “survivor challenge” for recruiters, humorously noting the potential perk of sitting next to him.
“Got a ‘plus one’ so the thought occurred to me that I should put this ticket up for a raffle and maybe help out some members of the Talent Acquisition community who are currently looking for their next opportunity.”
According to Lee, the primary goal is to provide a valuable networking platform for those in transition. He highlighted the potential benefits of attending such an event, especially for those actively searching for employment.
Networking and Opportunity Surfacing
Lee emphasized the networking potential of the gala, suggesting it could lead to both immediate and future career prospects. He pointed out that the event offers a chance to connect with new industry contacts and reconnect with existing ones.
“Good opportunity to network, meet new people in industry, refresh old contacts and maybe surface up some opportunities now and in the future.”
The value of the ticket is substantial, with standard attendance costing £375 per person. However, Lee is offering his guest seat for free to a lucky draw participant.
“Tickets are £375 per person, but if you can bear spending time sitting next to me, it will cost you ZERO!”
How to Enter the Draw
To enter the raffle, interested recruiters are instructed to comment ‘YES’ on Hung Lee’s original LinkedIn post. Lee plans to draw the winner’s name from a hat at the end of the week.
“All you have to do is comment ‘YES’ in the tread below and you will enter the draw. I will pull out the names out of the hat at the end of this week.”
This initiative by Hung Lee underscores a spirit of community support within the Talent Acquisition field, offering a tangible benefit to those navigating the current employment landscape.
