The rapid adoption of social and mobile technologies gives potential job seekers the ability to learn about an employer almost instantly. The impact of this is huge, sending talent acquisition teams into a frenzy about their employment brand on LinkedIn, Glassdoor, Twitter and more. As a result, these teams are tasked with putting additional cycles into their employment marketing materials, candidate experience and overall social recruiting strategy.

During the SHRM 2016 Talent Management Conference and Exposition, Kevin Grossman, vice president, North American Program, forTalent Board, will discuss relevant insights from employers and candidates captured in the recently published Candidate Experience Awards (http://www.thetalentboard.org/) research report. Drawing on this, Grossman will explain why marketing communications and customer service are critical to an organization's employment brand, and how job seekers are using these to learn more about companies and opportunities. In addition, Grossman will show attendees how sourcing ahead of need via pre-application communications can create a competitive edge.

HR professionals, hiring managers and recruiters interested in learning more about best practices for candidate experience strategy and social recruiting are encouraged to attend this engaging session.
