About the Presenters:
John Younger, President & CEO, Accolo
For more than 20 years, John Younger has successfully identified and incorporated major trends and technologies affecting the recruitment landscape. In 2000 he founded Accolo, a leader in Recruitment Process Outsourcing (RPO) for small and mid-sized companies. John’s passion to dramatically improve how people and jobs find each other is rooted in his deep understanding of technology, the recruitment process, and a core belief that everyone deserves courtesy and respect. This idea is central to Accolo’s vision, methods and communications.

John’s vision for a completely outsourced staffing solution led him to found y/net in 1996. After a successful launch, y/net was acquired by TriNet where John remained as president until 1999. While with TriNet, John helped the company gain recognition as one of Inc. Magazine’s 500 fastest growing companies in 1996, 1997, 1998 and 1999. Before founding y/net, John was the vice president of human resources for Bank of America where he led technical recruitment for an organization of 16,000 people.

John has successfully identified, incorporated and advanced recruitment solutions for more than 16 years. He was Resumix user #2 in 1988 and established the first Vendor on Premises for both Bank of America and Olsten Corporation in 1992. He was an early adopter of Internet recruiting with the On-Line Career Center – which later became Monster – in 1993, and was Hire.com user #4 while running his Venture Talent recruitment Agency in 1998. John earned a degree from Notre Dame in Mathematics and Computer Science and is a former member of the United States National (Olympic) Rowing Tea.

Colleen Aylward, CEO & Founder, InterviewStudio
With a business degree from University of Washington, followed by 24 years of high-tech sales and management experience in large and small companies, including NCSS, Dun & Bradstreet Computing, Comshare, Carlyle Systems, and GEAC, Colleen Aylward came to the recruiting industry in 1990 on a soapbox of Change.

Drawing on twelve years “on the other side” in Tech Support, Sales, and Regional Management, she transitioned to high-tech recruiting in 1990 in the Seattle area. She founded Devon James Associates, Inc., one of the country’s first RPOs, to answer the progressive demands of local software vendors seeking MORE/BETTER/NOW. Her small firm has compiled an impressive repeat-client list simply by word-of-mouth (Visio, SPRY/CompuServe, Amazon, Alias/WaveFront, Cranium, InfoSpace, Rhapsody Networks and others). High energy, funny and slightly irreverent, Colleen and her unique approach have been mentioned in publications such as Barron’s, Forbes, Fast Company, Washington CEO, Smart Money, Wall Street Journal, Boston Globe, Puget Sound Business Journal, and others.

From her work in the recruiting industry, Colleen’s passion has come to focus on technology solutions to solve the angst of those hiring managers she deals with on a daily basis: How to save time and money on recruiting and HR processes without sacrificing quality hiring results. Currently she is very busy launching her 3rd small company InterviewStudio.com.
