Recruiting Trends to Hold Annual Conference in Las Vegas, Oct. 14-17


The Recruiting Conference Rebranded as Recruiting Trends Conference

Peterborough, NH – June 13, 2012 – Recruiting Trends, a leading resource for the employee recruitment industry, will hold its annual conference in Las Vegas, Oct. 14-17. Formerly known as The Recruiting Conference, the event has been rebranded as the Recruiting Trends Conference to reflect Recruiting Trends’ evolution under new ownership. Recruiting Trends was purchased by private equity firm Greenhaven Partners last November.

The Recruiting Trends Conference, an event unlike any other, features a talk-show format that lends itself to dynamic presentations and allows for optimum audience engagement. Day One, recruiters, sourcers, talent acquisition managers, and other recruitment professionals participate as audience members while top recruiting industry professionals provide insight into the latest recruiting trends and leading-edge best practices, addressing such diverse and timely topics as talent acquisition leadership, social media in recruiting, the right metrics, employer branding, and more. Attendees then select who, from among the presenters, they wish to learn more and meet with them Day Two in workshops and consultative sessions.

This year’s event also features a pre-conference agenda, which includes the TrendSetters™ presentation, a one-of-a-kind learning opportunity where attendees will discover new technologies to enhance their recruiting performance. The conference concludes with The Sourcing Summit, a day dedicated to exploring the latest techniques in candidate sourcing.

In connection with its rebranding, Recruiting Trends has launched a new conference website where additional details may be found, including exhibitor and sponsor information.

“The new Recruiting Trends Conference builds on a brand with a 42-year history,” says RD Whitney, CEO of Recruiting Trends. “Our new look reflects our commitment to the industry and our plans for growth.”

“This year’s Recruiting Trends Conference has it all – excellent speakers, engaging format, incredible venue, and a lot of interest on the part of sponsors and exhibitors,” says Anna Brekka, Director of Recruiting Trends. “We look forward to a very successful event.”
