The current unemployment crisis has impacted everything: diversity & inclusion practices, digital job discovery, career pathing + upskilling, and more. The conference will be a chance to tackle these challenges and understand how TA professionals can make a difference.
“We created the Recruitment Automation Community because after speaking with TA teams across the world, we realized that every company was handling major challenges – from diversity to technology implementation to the unemployment crisis – differently,” said Drew Austin, Chief Executive Officer of Wade & Wendy. “This conference is a real opportunity to learn from each other.”
The conference will feature several panel discussions, including: Diversity Now: Building Inclusive Candidate Experience Today, Delivering Candidates Feedback in a Crisis, TA’s Opportunity – and Responsibility – to Tackle Unemployment, The Future of Job Discovery in a Digital World, and Graduating into a Recession: Approaches in Early Career + Campus Recruiting.
