Session: Ready to rehire: Getting your team and tech in place to grow again

When COVID-19 hit, tens of millions of tourism and hospitality jobs were impacted. No one knew just how long the pandemic would last or what its impact would be. But Bill Malcolm, Director of Talent Acquisition at Travel & Leisure Co, understood that his team needed to be ready to hire again at a moment’s notice. And he knew that his best source of hire would be those employees who had been furloughed or laid off.

In this session, Bill will share his strategy for keeping former workers engaged so that you’re ready to retire when your business returns. He’ll show you the tech he used, the personalized communications he sent and the results that he and his team achieved to rehire thousands of employees without spending a dollar in recruiting costs. This approach can be used not only for former workers but also to re-engage candidates in your talent database.

Session: The new candidate experience: Virtual and human 

As the Vice President of RPO & Talent Acquisition at EG Workforce Solutions, Chloe found herself pushed into making major TA tech decisions in a matter of weeks as their clients’ hiring needs went from “0 to 100” overnight. She and her team had to implement new capabilities to hire candidates in a 100% virtual process, without burdening her recruiting team or candidates with complicated tech. 

At RallyFwd, Chloe will share how she fine-tuned the steps in her new hiring process, which technologies keep candidates engaged, which ones create drop-off, and where her recruiters actually gained efficiencies. You’ll walk away with a strategic framework for evaluating the tech you have today as a short-term fix or essential to your digital recruiting strategy long-term.

Session: Activating a New Talent Market in 60 Days

When your company has aggressive hiring goals, yet you’re competing for talent against better known brands, how do you break through to attract the candidates you need? It’s a challenge that many employers face, from startups building their first team to established companies opening a new location to today’s companies recruiting remote workers.

At RallyFwd, Chris Fitzner, Recruitment Marketing Manager for Appian, will share his playbook for launching an unknown employer brand in a new talent market in just 60 days.

You’ll learn:

  • How to create a multi-channel Recruitment Marketing campaign in partnership with your marketing team
  • A two-step content strategy to introduce your brand before advertising your jobs
  • Ways to leverage social media and digital channels to target the talent you need
Liz Gelb-O'Connor, ADP

Liz Gelb-O’Connor, Vice President, Global Head Employer Brand & Marketing, ADP

Session: How to Evolve Your Employer Brand after a Business Pivot

Every business shifts or pivots at some point. As companies evolve, their employer brands must evolve too — not only to reflect the employee experience as it currently is, but also to attract the talent needed to support where the company wants to go.

In 2019, ADP launched a new and radically different corporate brand to reflect the company’s shift from a payroll service provider to a technology company enabling the new world of work. To support this shift, the ADP employer brand team created a bold strategy, in partnership with its technology and product leaders, to position ADP as a technology organization to tech talent. #ADPTech was born — a unified but complimentary tech talent brand with its own employee value proposition (EVP), careers website and employer brand campaign to attract, engage and recruit tech talent.

At RallyFwd, you’ll go inside this best-in-class approach with Liz Gelb-O’Connor, Vice President and Global Head of Employer Brand & Marketing at ADP, and find out why #ADPTech won first place in the Best Employer Brand Launch category at the 2021 Rally Awards.
