The corporate world that we know has shifted... especially over the last two plus years of the COVID-19 pandemic... changing the scenario of how we work. Employees have always used their talent and skills as their most potent weapon to survive. But, how do organizations acquire talent? How is "recruitment" different from "acquisition"? In this session, hosted by Total Rewards KC, we will look at ways organizations can strategically design their talent acquisition approach.
