Countdown to Spring ERE Expo – San Diego
by Neil Costa on March 22, 2011
The ERE Conference is just one day away. Are you ready? HireClix is ready to make its ERE debut, and we are excited for ERE for two big reasons. First, the HireClix team is convinced that now is a pivotal moment in online recruiting because of the economy and the availibility of new recruiting channels. Second, we live in Boston and can’t wait to wear shorts and have a few drinks in the sun.
The recruiting world is experiencing a major shift. The way candidates look for opportunities has changed. The market is shifting away from major job boards, and the shift will is already proving to be a major event with the same impact as when job boards displaced newspaper classified ads. The search for talent will be across new ground, and you will have to learn how best to navigate.
Why is HireClix excited about this shift? We started HireClix because we fundamentally know we can help people navigate these changes. A big part of our mission is to act as a trusted advisor to our clients and the recruiting community. We take the time to educate and explain how new recruitment marketing channels operate. Once we help folks gain an understanding of these opportunities for their employment brand, we help them deploy the best recruitment marketing mix. Our story is best told 1-1 with clients, and ERE is a great opportunity to get together and help address the specific needs of our current clients, future clients, and the innovators that drive this industry forward.
What to Expect From HireClix at ERE
HireClix doesn’t have a canned solution or stump speech. We tailor everything to our clients’ needs. But we can share with you a few of themes we’ll be hitting at ERE.
Fresh look at digital recruitment marketing: your old recruitment strategies and mix will not cut it in the future.
Go beyond job boards: Once the end all be all. Once really big. Going extinct? Maybe. The only solution. No way.
Build a new recruitment marketing mix: Facebook recruiting, LinkedIn, Twitter & YouTube. Blogging and targeted advertising to passive candidates. If any of these trigger an “oh yeah” moment, we can help.
Make your life easier: Our clients consider us an extension of their team. We live and breath digital recruitment marketing. We literally do whatever needs to be done from creating ad campaigns to renting taco trucks. Just ask.
Fun – we will buy you a drink: Coffee, water, brew or beyond. Self-explanatory.
Learn something new:
· Using Facebook targeted advertising and Fan Pages to leverage this enormous audience
· Leveraging Pay-Per-Click Recruiting to use Indeed, Simply Hired & Google
· Alternative to career ad networks but focusing on building your brand
· Using online video in your recruiting strategy
· Easy ways to build an employer blogging strategy
We’re ready for ERE Expo – Spring 2011. We’re ready for the new world of recruiting. Are you? It’s Booth #209. Please swing by and don’t be shy. #ereexpo
