Beeline Webinar with CXC Global
Today’s corporate workforce is becoming more agile and blended with a combination of full time employees and contingent workers. The contingent category includes the rapid growth of freelance and independent contractors in addition traditional contract and temporary workers. To capitalize on these shifts, companies’ talent acquisition strategies now include a combination of direct sourcing from various talent pools (internal & external) and online platforms, as well as traditional in-house recruiting.
With the known shortage of highly skilled and specialized talent, access to talent has become even more of a hot topic, and recruitment firms and talent acquisition professionals are now able to source talent from more avenues than ever before.
Beeline recently hosted a webinar with CXC to address the topic of Direct Sourcing Talent and Global Compliance and How it Impacts Contingent Programs.
Speakers were:
Chuck Young, Partnership Manager for Beeline
John Smith, Managing Director, CXC Global Americas
Connor Heaney, Managing Director, CXC Global EMEA
The following highlights the key takeaways from the webinar.
