Overcome skills shortages through effective recruitment and apprenticeships
Join us for the CIPD Talent Acquisition Conferences on 13-14 February 2019 at The Montcalm in London.
Skill shortages are affecting organisations and recruiters across industries and sectors, negatively impacting business performance and productivity. The job market is now more candidate-driven than ever before and it’s increasingly difficult to find the right skills and expertise that will drive our organisations to succeed. We need to be more innovative in the way we reach and attract our talent if we want to secure the best employees for our businesses.
This year’s CIPD Recruitment Conference and the newly launched CIPD Early Careers and Apprenticeships Conference will be your opportunity to learn the latest and most effective strategies to attract, select and recruit the talent you need in a challenging job market, increasingly threatened by the changing landscape.
Join the Recruitment Conference, 13 February, to learn how to best leverage your employer brand, revise your sourcing strategy and boost the effectiveness of your recruitment teams. Join the Early Careers and Apprenticeships Conference, 14 February, to learn how to leverage apprenticeship schemes, take advantage of the levy, and attract graduates, trainees and school leavers to build and nurture your future talent. Or join us for both conferences and save 10% on the ticket price! In addition, CIPD members benefit from a discounted rate.
