“You’re doing it wrong.” Everyone needs someone in their corner to let them know when something needs to change. Yet, many organizations continue to believe that they know what’s important, even when their actions are off the mark in one or more ways.

In this SHRM (the Society for Human Resource Management) webcast, Plum CEO Caitlin MacGregor and Ben Eubanks, Chief Research Officer at Lighthouse Research & Advisory, will explore this concept as it relates to common talent acquisition practices, leveraging findings from a recent study based on the responses of 1,000+ employers and 1000 candidates. Using these insights, MacGregor and Eubanks will discuss what is driving ghosting in the recruiting process as well as why candidates actually like certain assessments. Attendees will learn how to prioritize and improve candidate communications during hiring to enhance outcomes.

This webcast is approved for one (1) professional development credit toward SHRM-CP and SHRM-SCP recertification. For additional event information, including registration details, click here.
