And then Dr Sullivan will walk you through the initial steps that corporate and agency recruiters should take to begin the transition. While at the same time almost immediately improving your recruiting results and business impacts. Dr Sullivan will also explain why waiting to make the transition may not be a good idea (for example, if you are a recruitment agency that wants to avoid the fate of other “agencies,” like travel agencies, that wouldn’t acknowledge fast enough that the old model was dying).
