DETAILS:
In today's competitive hiring climate, successful talent acquisition requires recruiters to think like computers. Under the influence of Big Data, machine learning, talent analytics and predictive modeling, talent acquisition has evolved, leading to the creation of half-human, half-machine recruiting strategies. To fully maximize this approach, recruiters need to become attuned to the role technology can play in order to make use of predictive analytics in their day-to-day work.
During the 2016 HR Florida Conference and Expo, Joseph P. Murphy, executive vice president and co-founder of Shaker, will explain how selection science as predictive modeling has created a powerful decision-making blend of human and machine. Murphy will explore how companies can improve quality of hire with objective candidate data. In addition, Murphy will show how to apply a talent analytics maturity model to current practices and generate action priorities to optimize talent acquisition decisions. Session attendees will learn how predictive analytics are changing the speed, cost and effectiveness of talent acquisition practices.
HR leaders and recruiters interested in understanding how computer-enabled recruiting is changing the way hiring decisions are made are encouraged to attend this session. For information about the 2016 HR Florida Conference and Expo, visit: http://www.hrflorida.org/mpage/2016conference.
