Industry Expert Offers Unique View for Recruiting Top Talent
Matthew Kaiser, Vice President and Talent Strategist, NAS Recruitment Communications, will offer a thought-provoking seminar on understanding the recruitment process from the candidate’s point of view at Kennedy Information’s Recruiting 2008 Conference and Expo in the Florida Hotel and Conference Center in Orlando, Florida.
On Monday, November 17th at 3:55 p.m., Kaiser will present “Improving the Candidate Experience: Can You Put Yourself in Their Shoes,” a stimulating view of how an organization may be perceived by the people it hopes to attract and eventually hire. The program will address the meaning behind the candidate experience, how to measure it and how to effectively improve it to attract, engage and retain the best talent. Attendees will be given tools to help measure the candidate experience and identify strategies to enhance candidate “touch points.”
“The economy, new technology and changing demographics are among the factors affecting an A-level candidate’s decision on which organization to choose,” said Kaiser. “It’s important to look at the candidate experience and see your organization through their eyes. Understanding the thought processes of your talent target is no easy matter, but it is a critical component of successful recruiting efforts.”
Kaiser is a recruitment strategy consultant with over 11 years’ professional experience with Fortune 100 and 500 clients in a variety of industries. He holds a Bachelor’s degree in Marketing and Multinational Business from Florida State University.
