INDIANAPOLIS (May 25, 2021) – Jobvite (www.jobvite.com), the industry-leading talent acquisition suite, announced today its second annual The Summer to Evolve program, this year entitled “The Summer to Evolve: Road Trip.” The series delivers a summer full of educational programming designed to help recruiters and talent acquisition professionals improve their skills, tactics, and strategies.
Launching June 8, 2021, and running for eight weeks, The Summer to Evolve: Road Trip will feature three free sessions per week full of educational content and thought leadership designed specifically for talent acquisition (TA) and recruiting professionals. Adapting recruiting strategies to meet increased hiring needs, establishing Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DE&I) goals, automating recruiting processes for efficiency, and positive candidate communications are just some of the topics aimed at helping attendees improve existing processes, and inspire new ideas from some of the greatest minds in talent acquisition.
“Rethinking recruiting strategies is especially crucial during this time of massive job market change, when many recruiters are struggling to fill open roles,” said Pete Lamson, CEO of Jobvite. “That is why we are so excited for the opportunity to gather the talent acquisition and HR community together again to provide free education surrounding relevant topics that will improve hiring success in 2021. With multiple sessions each week, topics such as building talent pools to support rapid hiring post-pandemic, identifying key TA metrics to drive business outcomes, and leveraging recruitment technology will provide attendees with clear and actionable ways to find and hire top talent faster.”
