Relief has arrived! On September 10th and 11th, Recruitment professionals of all types and levels from corporate through executive will have the opportunity to painlessly master Sourcing by participating in an authoritative course taught by Shally Steckerl, the world’s most recognized expert in the discipline.

Sourcing has always been a key component of Recruitment yet for many it remains a mystery shrouded in hype, full of closely guarded secrets, making it painful or impractical to learn. Confusion regarding its definition and outrageous claims about its efficiency discourage productive Recruiters from finding the truth. Time’s up, you can no longer afford to wait.

Who should attend?

Anyone involved with identifying, attracting, and engaging talent for employment opportunities should attend.  Rookies will learn the best way to find, attract and engage with talent in today’s electronic chaos. Those in senior positions can challenge what they know and expand on their knowledge, covering topics they didn’t even know existed like the truth about how search engines really work, why they do the funky things they do, and how to apply SEO to recruitment advertising.
