About this event
We have all seen the stats. It’s a candidates’ market. The demands from hiring managers are acute – they need great hires and they need them now.
But when you need volume hires fast, how do you guarantee quality of candidate? How do you ensure your process is fit for purpose? What could you cut back and what is essential?
Talent acquisition professionals and hiring managers are facing unprecedented pressures and they need to understand which industry innovations they could you use to meet their hiring objectives.
This Personnel Today webinar, in association with recruitment process outsourcer PeopleScout, will look at how talent acquisition professionals and HR generalists can keep their hiring managers on-side, maintaining speed and agility without damaging quality of hire.
Personnel Today Rob Moss is joined by a panel of professionals with a wealth of experience in this area, including Mark Wright, customer services operations manager at VirginMediaO2 and Helen Hay, head of talent and culture at law firm Shakespeare Martineau.
Also on the panel are Andrew Weston, solution director, and James Chorley, client relationship director, from PeopleScout; Kate Law, membership and learning director at the Call Centre Management Association, and Alison Jackson, head of talent acquisition at easyJet.
Register now to understand:
- What the main drivers are for the candidates’ market
- What these mean for employers
- How to avoid risking quality when trying to recruit fast
- Strategies to maintain ED&I targets when talent pools are limited.
The 60-minutes webinar will give attendees a practical insight into the tools and methods used by employers who are recruiting large volumes of people.
