2. Ever dreamed of achieving a 93% offer acceptance rate? No, it's not a typo, this was the result of a phenomenally successful talent acquisition campaign spearheaded by Erin Wilson, Head of Talent Engineering at Yahoo. In this fascinating case study, Erin will reveal how they received and attended to 16.8k applicants, spoke to 25% of them, yet kept their teams focus while honing in on a 2:1 onsite to hire ratio and 93% offer acceptance rate. The stats are incredible, how they went about it is even more amazing. Come to HR Tech Fest to find out how they did it and how you can apply

 

3. If you're dealing with a “shut it downâ€' leadership mentality when it comes to social media, you need to hear Steve Ward present at HR Tech Fest. He will explain why there is no need to be fearful of employees using social media to enhance their personal brand at the expense of the business. In fact, it's actually an opportunity – allowing us as leaders and employees to be tuned in to our customer audiences, have a positive impact on the business, and make us more accessible in both social media channels and offline. With 22 years' HR experience, Steve is credited as being one of the first (in 2009) to undertake what people would now call social recruiting.
