In the midst of economic uncertainty, a majority of respondents to Knowledge Infusion and ERE’s The Future of Recruiting & Sourcing Survey consider recruiting and sourcing in the top third of business—not HR—but business priorities.

That’s because best practices for finding and hiring great talent is never out of style—regardless of the economic season. We also see the advantages for all size businesses using new processes and tools for recruiting and sourcing.

Yesterday, smaller businesses:
• Relied on simple career sites, print ads, and limited job board access.
• Missed relationship building with passive candidates.
• Lacked sophisticated job board tools.
• Had to manually troll the social networks.

Today, technology and targeted marketing has leveled the playing field.

Join me—Alice Snell, Vice President of Taleo Research; Krista Bauer, Talent Acquisition Recruiter with MobiTV; and Kevin Nanney, Senior Director of Products with Taleo, as we explain how to hire smarter and faster in a slow economy using innovative sourcing channels and real-world examples.
