Recruiting Disruption, John Sumser
It happened to the newspapers. It happened to secretaries. It happened to the music business. It happened to retail. It happened to the printing industry. It happened to magazines. It happened to stock brokers. It happened to the insurance business.
It’s happening in recruiting. The Internet shepherds in a time of greater choice, higher quality and lower cost. The process, called disruption, happens in every setting where friction and ambiguity dominate the marketplace.
Imagine a world in which recruiting budgets are 5% of today’s. Imagine better more consistent service delivery. Imagine self-managing candidate supply pipelines.
The track will focus on building scenarios that describe possible futures for the Recruiting business.

Jerry Albright and Julia Stone have an impressive record. With over 30 years in the agency world, they have come up with many timeless truths about recruiting. Jerry & Julia could not have more different approaches but they both know good recruiting and share a common goal: making placements!
In good times it is difficult to loose a placement but who can afford to have a deal turn on them in this economy? Now more than ever it is important to make every step of the recruiting process count.
So bring your questions, your stories, your input and your laptop….because if you want, we will make a placement right then and there!
Jerry & Julia will get back to basics in this session, and deal with all the things that happen between finding the candidate and finally sending an invoice. We like to call it damn good recruiting.

A Conversation: The Candidate Experience, Gerry Crispin
Its on the ‘playing fields’ where candidates and employers meet and engage that the candidate experience emerges. But what is it exactly? What role, responsibility do stakeholders (Corporate leaders, third party, jobseekers, hiring managers, recruiters, staffing leaders) have in creating a positive/negative experience…or any experience at all? Why should I care? How would I measure whether it makes a difference?
