GREEN TO GRAY: Attracting & Selecting Talent Across Generations

Topic: GREEN TO GRAY: Attracting & Selecting Talent Across Generations Date: May 13, 2010 at 3:00 - 4:00 PM ET

Description

Understanding the wants, needs and motivations of your candidates is critical to getting their attention and attracting the right fit. Especially in today’s competitive environment, finding the best talent (and searching out talent from non-traditional resources) to get a step ahead of your competition is key. Generational distinctions are one way to tailor recruitment and screening messages, and can have a marked impact on results from a talent recruitment standpoint. These differences may also impact how candidates respond to assessments or other screening tools used in the selection process. From messaging, to job descriptions, to application & assessment considerations, tailoring the recruitment strategy for different generations can help ensure optimum results. SnagAJob.com and Assess Systems will discuss key differences in age group dynamics and how these impact recruitment. Additionally, trends observed from historical work-related screening assessment data will be discussed to highlight differences and similarities across generations.
