Mr. McGovern will present “One-to-One Recruiting: New Ways to Attract Today’s Young Professionals.”

His topic will provide recruiters with the knowledge that they must be prepared for a new generation of career professionals. Transaction-based recruiting strategies – casting large recruiting nets and treating prospects as commodities – are no longer effective. Younger workers seek greater control of the recruiting process, just as they seek greater control over their lives.

Are recruiters prepared to provide richer, more conversational approaches? Do you speak Gen X? Hear what Rob McGovern has learned in his research and in real-life experiences with this new generation of workers and how recruiters can gain return on relationship (ROR) by emphasizing:
• Contribution vs. Reward.
• Joining vs. Competing.
• Listening vs. Telling.
• And much more.
