CKR Interactive Turns the Page on Job Descriptions at the 2015 Cleveland HR Star Conference

CAMPBELL, Calif. - July 23, 2015 - PRLog -- Global recruitment marketing agency, CKR Interactive (www.ckrinteractive.com), is delighted to announce that Laurie Severino, director of client development and Kristin Oravec, Sr. Client Strategist, will hold two sessions on the subject of “Make Your Job Descriptions Come Alive” at the 2015 Cleveland HR Star Conference on Wednesday, July 29, 2015 at the Holiday Inn in Independence, Ohio.

As integral as they are to recruiting talent, historically, job descriptions have been known to be overwhelmingly wordy, bland and altogether ineffective at engaging job seekers.

“When it comes to job descriptions in general, there is plenty of potential to make them livelier and more engaging to prospective talent. In all my years of recruitment marketing, I’ve seen job descriptions go from bad to worse. Now is the time to get everyone to understand the need for a change,” says Severino.

CKR Interactive’s first session will take place from 11:15am–noon. The second session starts at 3:30pm and wraps up at 4:15pm. Both sessions will take place in the Bedford Room at the Holiday Inn in Independence, Ohio. The interactive sessions will kick off with the “good, the bad and the ugly — the history of job descriptions and involve the audience in true stories about their “favorites”; provide an overview of the state of job descriptions today and what they might look like in the future. But the primary focus will be on fresh approaches to stale job descriptions, which will include visual, video and create your own job descriptions. At the conclusion of each session CKR will provide attendees with a handout on detailing some best practices for job descriptions.

This year’s Cleveland HR Star Conference will feature 29 presentations and is expected to draw more than 600 HR professionals and is considered one of the largest industry-related events in the Midwest.

CKR Interactive will give away 5 selfie sticks during each session and an additional 10 sticks at the booth and encourage all conference-goers to stop by. The agency is also contributing a Polaroid camera to the conference raffle.
