CareerXroads® Colloquium - Fall 2010 Event

Dates: September 14-15
Location: Mountain View, CA hosted at Intuit

Discussion Topics

Our lead topic for this Colloquium will be Branding. Detailed discussion points as determined by member vote are:

  • Alignment of your Corporate Brand with Your Recruitment Brand: What is this process like? A partnership? Input? Or, do you just wait til they are done before you can do your thing?
  • Responsibility: How do you lead the HR functions in distinguishing between your Employment Brand and your Employee Value Proposition? How far does your accountability go?
  • Today's Hype Tomorrow's Focus: Are collaboration and social media tools and strategies enhancing your capabilities or hindering your progress with strengthening the brand? Why/or how?
  • Recruitment Branding Challenge: Everyone is to bring their latest Recruitment Branding Challenge or Campaign - the situation, the plan, the execution and the result.

As is our practice at CareerXroads Colloquium events we ask all attendees to bring “what keeps them up at night” in their recruiting organizations so we can help each other solve those issues. After all, it's the caliber of our group that makes each session unique and provides that Aha! moment you'll take back to your office.
