SESSION DESCRIPTION In between do-it-yourself and recruitment process outsourcing, there’s a third
way - partnerships. Home Depot will explain how you can use partnerships with
such groups as the AARP, the Department of Labor, community groups such as SER –
Jobs for Progress National, and others to fill jobs.
Home Depot receives more than 17 million job applications annually and had
revenues of more than $73 billion in 2004. It grew so fast in recent years that
its policy of hiring from within could no longer be the only answer. The
company’s growth outpaced the number of qualified internal candidates for key
management and leadership positions.
You will walk away from this session with the knowledge of how a version of
outsourcing to third-parties can work for you and how to provide a seamless
experience to candidates even while outsiders are handling many key staffing
tasks.
