Webcast:
If you want to be more proactive on the CI side of recruiting research for your company but don't have much of a budget, then you should get a lot of actionable tips and tools from this webcast presented by one of the pioneers of Internet recruiting research. We'll discuss ways to quickly find out the online ways to get answers to questions like these: What companies are in the same space as the one(s) I need talent for, especially lesser-known ones? Which are merging or downsizing (by target industry, geography, etc.) where relevant talent might be more vulnerable? How can I monitor when any of those competitors make talent or business changes? What are the job titles that those companies use for the roles I'm trying to fill? How do I find the people who had key roles at the company before the merger/acquisition? If I'm not getting enough referrals by phone, how can I find similarly-skilled peers of the people I find? For companies in trouble, where can I find people candidly talking about the problems?
Bonus: We'll also discuss some of the hot search engine optimization and keyword tricks to know how your competitors' sites rank, techniques they're using to get their sites ranked high on search engines, and what keywords they're buying for those targeted pay-per-click ads... all applied in a career website / recruitment advertising context.
