Thanks for our resident tweeter, James Mayes, for this round table summary.   An interesting event to try and run, as the ownership of onboarding seems to jump around in different organisations.  Those around the table mostly leaned towards HR ownership of the actual process, but with significant input required from recruiters, HR, L&D teams … Continue reading »

We are pleased to announce the launch of HR-Converse, a brand extension of Reconverse. Having now hosted 26 Reconverse events over 19 months, the demand for our event format, outside of candidate attraction, has become very apparent and this move sees us go somewhat beyond our comfort zone and into the HR and L&D markets. … Continue reading »
