We all know that the foundation of a strong organization is its people, but it’s getting harder to bring on the right mix of individuals these days. Has COVID-19 thrown off your hiring process like it has for so many HR and staffing pros? Are you struggling to beat the competition to the best talent in this environment? Does the rapidly changing job market have you worried about attracting the employees (or volunteers!) you need for the future?
At Asurint, we’re here to help with employers’ toughest challenges—and the switch to a virtual hiring process definitely counts as tough! That’s why we brought together four leading experts in recruitment and onboarding for our November webinar, Adapting Virtually: 5 Ways to Improve Your Hiring Process. The group included:
- Elisabeth Mayer, Talent Acquisition Specialist who has helped fill positions in manufacturing, office professions, and sales roles and has collaborated widely with hiring managers
- Ryan Ellis, Strategic Talent Director whose experience spans healthcare, IT, and manufacturing, including a tenure leading the U.S. recruitment team at Lincoln Electric
- Elias Kahwaji, Account Manager for Application Services, a tech-savvy hiring expert with TEKsystems, a national IT staffing and services provider
- Facilitator Huda Farunia, Asurint’s own Vice President for Human Resources and hiring aficionado in her own right
We promoted this webinar as giving five strategies for hiring process success, but these industry insiders had so much more information and advice to share with our participants throughout the presentation and the Q&A that followed. The Asurint team cannot thank them enough for their time and insights.
If you missed this essential webinar, don’t worry—we recorded it for you! You can stream or download a complete playback of the event at your convenience.
Fortunately, an end to the COVID-19 pandemic should arrive at some point in the coming year, if vaccine news remains positive (and thank goodness!). The virtual hiring process many organizations turned to during this crisis, on the other hand, is probably here to stay.
Whether you expect recruitment to remain 100% virtual or will reintegrate more in-person interactions when it’s safe to do so, you can benefit from the tips included in the Adapting Virtually webinar. The 2021 hiring crunch is coming fast, so definitely check out this event recording today!
