I’m going to the JobG8 Job Board Summit – and hope you can, too!
Hey folks – I will be presenting at the JobG8 Job Board Summit (June 20-21) in Chicago – but that’s not the only reason you should go! Seriously – they’ve pulled together what promises to be an interesting and informative agenda. Here is some of the stuff I’m looking forward to:
- A Q&A moderated by Steven Rothberg (CollegeRecruiter) covering the candidate experience and the future of work. As you know, I’m a big proponent of making job boards more friendly and effective for candidates – and I’m interested to hear what Gerry Crispin, Kevin Wheeler, and the audience has to say.
- Michael Marlatt (mRecruiting Camp) is talking about the new hyper-connected world. Think mobile, act mobile – it’s our future, methinks.
- How to dig into your existing prospect database and find the proverbial gold – from none other than David Donlan of Hubspot – one of my go-to resources for marketing automation.
- The fabled Joel Cheesman (whom I’ve never met, amazingly enough) is digging into the nuts and bolts of using social media for marketing. I’m betting he’ll say something interesting.
- Peter Zollman (AIM Group) will be moderating a Q&A following my talk about the 2013 Job Board Trends Survey. Guess I’ll actually have to read the damn thing…
There is more, of course – matching, real-time traffic bidding, and more. Not to mention a Thursday night cocktail party (yes, twist my arm, I’ll go!). I suspect this summit will be a good complement to the IAEWS conference (also in Chicago this October) – different perspectives, but the same goals: to make the industry better.
So if you want to learn and network, please consider coming to Chicago this June. And if you do, be sure to say hi!
Talroo brings clarity to improve new-hire retention
You filled the seat, but not with someone who plans to stay. The candidate made it through your entire interview process while quietly interviewing with other companies that pay 25% more.
When expectations aren't clear up front, retention suffers.

Getting a word in edgewise with Gerry and Kevin should be fun. I’m envisioning introducing one of them, the other one jumping in with clarification, and then a whole lot of incredibly valuable information flowing from Gerry, then Kevin, then Gerry, then Kevin while I sit there with a bewildered look on my face. 🙂
