Staffing World^®, the ASA annual convention and expo, is where the staffing community comes together to make strategic connections, learn about new strategies, and get solutions that fuel growth and accelerate success.

This year’s event takes place Oct. 3–5 at the Charlotte Convention Center in Charlotte, NC, and will feature more than 30 learning sessions in 12 major content categories— including “Candidate Sourcing Strategy: Actionable Talent Finding Strategies.”

Identifying qualified candidates quickly and filling jobs is essential to your bottom line. It may seem obvious, but proactively sourcing candidates and making your jobs (and your brand) discoverable requires a focused strategy. Especially in a candidate-driven market, a solid proactive sourcing strategy enables you to enjoy a stacked pipeline regardless of the time of year or current candidate economy. Finding great candidates isn’t easy. In this session, participants will dig through today’s top strategic practices and recruitment technology integrations that elevate a staffing firm’s sourcing return.
