My very good friend Alan Whitford is organising a social recruiting conference on the 30th November (in London) and I think you should go.
What? You want more information? Ok.
So, Alan is working with a chap called Vic Okezie to host a conference which focusses on social recruiting case studies – with measurable ROIs. What Alan found is that while there is a lot of talk about the subject of social recruitment what can be lacking are those real case studies of social media recruitment within UK and European organisations. Nothing wrong with conferences that tell you HOW to use Twitter, LinkedIn, Facebook, etc or WHY to use them. However, it's got to be useful to hear HOW and WHY and with what RESULTS other organisations have used them.
The focus is around how these social media tools can be (are being) used for employer branding, engaging with and attracting talent.
His speakers include:
Matthew Jeffery, Global Talent Brand Director, Electronic Arts
Jennifer Candee, Group Head of Talent Acquisition, SABMiller
Colin Minto, Global Head of Resourcing, G4S Plc
Lennart Sloof, e-Recruitment Manager, Deloitte NL
Jon Ingham, Former HR Director, EY & Owner, Strategic HCM
Mel Carson, Community Manager, Microsoft Advertising
Marie Pavelka, European Recruitment Manager, Cummins
Sedef Buyukataman, University Relations Manager, Cisco EU/EMEA
Ted Meulenkamp, Global Program Manager Attraction and Sourcing, Roche
