Potentia Recruitment, 222 Lambton Quay, Wellington Central, Wellington 6011
You'll find us on level 6 of Equinox House
We all know how chaotic the hiring market is at the moment but as an employer, how can you ensure you are securing and retaining the ‘right’ people? What are some of the things you need to think about, now and in the future?
During Techweek22, we’re going to be jumping headfirst into the world of hiring and exiting strategies – debating a series of topics across different stages of the employee lifecycle.
You’ll come away from this session with hiring and retention insights and a toolkit that eases your conscience and gives you a defendable plan for not just in the madness of today’s market but also in perpetuity:
- What some Kiwi companies are doing differently with their hiring and exiting
- What behaviours in the recruitment process tell you about the person
- Building new employee relationships swiftly
- Resignations and disengagement – know when to hold em, know when to fold em
- The importance of a great alumni programme
This will be an interactive session, drawing on research to give you soundbites, commentary and data, as well as attendee's insights and of course, the panel’s wisdom.
If 2022 hiring and retention is on your priority list, this is a Techweek event you cannot miss.
