Many companies today talk about the endless opportunities associated with “Big Data,” but what are they doing about it? With the vast stores of human capital data available through Big Data, including those found on job sites, social media and other resources, employers are better able to find, attract, retain and promote best-in-class employees. However, many are still uncertain how to leverage this information most effectively.

During this webinar, Glen Cathey, vice president of Global Sourcing and Talent Strategy for Randstad Sourceright, and Donna Quintal, senior manager of Strategic Sourcing at Sears Holdings Corporation, will provide first-hand insight on practical innovation approaches to put today’s data-rich HR environment to work. They will also discuss how companies can rethink their approach to employee and candidate intelligence and tear up the old rulebook on sourcing and recruiting. In addition, attendees will learn tactics and strategies for discovering and engaging hidden talent; how internal recruiting has transformed in recent years; and the areas of opportunity and challenge they will likely face as they move forward.

HR, recruiting and sourcing professionals, hiring managers and executives who want to learn best practices for leveraging Big Data in their recruiting operations are encouraged to attend this educational session.
