Why YOU need to attend the technology showcase on 8th October

We’ve been running Recruitment Technology Showcase events for a number of years now.  However, if you’ve not been before you’re going to want to know why you should give up a day of your time to join us.   The event is on the 8th October and this is all you need to know:

What is the recruitment technology showcase event? This is a video blog I did last year talking about our event.  I speak quite fast so it’s less than 90 seconds long!  Essentially, though, we pull together a comprehensive line up of the best recruitment technology companies in the UK and invite you to spend the day with them and our technology experts.  This ensures you stay ahead of the game and learn more about new technologies to help you recruit more efficiently than your competitors.

What does it actually look like? We had a montage video made of this May’s event so you can see what if feels like to attend.  In this video I coin the phrase “talent of experts” which I do rather like.  You’ll also notice we spend quite a lot of time at the buffet (and later beer) table.  We’ve got photos here too from this May’s event.

Who will I meet?  20 recruitment technology companies, 7 recruitment technology experts, me and about 100 other recruiters all trying to understand how to best use technology in their business. Plus we are exceptionally lucky to have Keith Potts as our keynote.

What new thing will I learn? I suppose this depends on what you are after.  You may find a new product or service to take into your business, a more creative or cost effective way to use technology and/or some new skills from our expert led workshops.

Anything new at this one? At this event our onsite experts are offering free 20 minute consultations; available on a first come first served basis. When you book your ticket for the event you can select the expert you wish to have the consultation with or the topic you wish to discuss (and we’ll allocate the most appropriate expert).  Topics include social media, website development, using LinkedIn, understanding mobile and sourcing.

How will it help me stay cutting edge? You’ll be updated on an excellent range of the latest technology in one day, and thanks to our completely unique and fun format, you’ll leave feeling excited by the subject, and overflowing with ideas on how to talk with next and how to implement new ideas.  You can also find out what your competitors are doing and be inspired by new developments.

Is it value for money? Hell, yea!  It’s actually a free event.  You pay a deposit (this post explains why) but essentially you don’t pay a penny to come along, see all the technology providers, have as much tea and coffee as you can drink, get a buffet lunch, take part in product demos, see the latest sector developments, join the workshops and have a beer with us at the end of the day!  On top of that there’s a prize draw sponsored for a fancy meal for two and champagne.

You can book your tickets now with early bird discount until the 8th September.
