SMA South Florida – Do More with Less, Bringing Efficiency to Talent Acquisition

Click here to register

As hiring organizations continue to battle in “The War for Talent”, recruitment teams are attempting to process much more work with less available resources.  If you consider how budgets and teams have shrunk to thin proportions, HR and talent acquisition leaders are forced to find new and creative ways to stay competitive and productive.

In the talent acquisition space, reputation is essential to ensure “customers” keep coming back.  Those “customers” might be external clients that have retained an external staffing agency, or they might be “internal customers” as hiring managers and business unit managers.  There is a distinct shift focusing on quality of candidate – more so now than ever before.  The intersection of “speed” and “quality” is a delicate balancing act, and today’s advancing technology and behavioral science enables recruiters to consistently deliver on both.

By reducing the time spend on activities that add little to no value to the recruitment workflow, organizations can become leaner and much more efficient in their day-to-day operations while remaining true to their strategic goals.

In this  presentation we will address:

• How to save your organization time by eliminating time-consuming activities
• How to improve the quality of candidates and reduce time-to-fill
• The role mobile technology plays, and its impact on the pre-screening process
• How to leverage passive sourcing elements, turning candidate references into applicants
