Yesterday I took part in a Google+ Hangout organised by Colleague Software to kick start the Recruitment Technology Showcase early. We had 10 people participating in the hangout and considering the potential risk areas I think it went really well. Lisa Jones, Alan Whitford and Bill Boorman all took part and will also be presenting at the technology event. Peter Thompson, Mark Stephens and Stephen Barham also took part; all recruiters with their own recruitment technology thoughts and issues. Plus there was Louis & his colleague Jon Broadley from Colleague Software and me! Raymond Pennie joined the call later (hopefully we’ll see him on Tuesday too). We chatted about some of the potential usages of recruitment software, trends and tools, as well as some of the problems recruiters regularly face!
Having been a bit critical of a previous hangout I’d watched I had to be careful in my prep so hopefully if you watch it you’ll notice I have actually brushed my hair and attempted to conceal my double chins 🙂
So, if you want to get a feel for what we might be talking about at the event and hear Lisa, Alan, Bill and Raymond share their undoubted knowledge you can check it out.
PS, and yes; this sadly is the best screen shot I could manage to obtain of myself!!
