For a long time, organizations saw talent acquisition (TA) as little more than a necessary cost center. According to this view, the TA team doesn’t drive revenue. It only contributes to organizational success indirectly by performing the time-intensive, highcost work of recruiting new talent. However, this isn’t an entirely accurate view of how TA works. Luckily, this view is also falling out of favor with the most innovative companies. Instead, these companies are starting to see TA as a strategic asset. In the strategic view of TA, organizations understand the recruiting and hiring process is one of the cornerstones of organizational success. Forward thinking companies know better TA leads to better hires at a lower cost, and those better hires drive increased revenue and greater business success overall.

Event Management Technology: The Key to Event Success   While the best practices previously outlined should steer you in the right direction, there is one more thing to keep in mind before heading to your next high-volume recruiting event: For best results, invest in the right event management technology.   As mentioned earlier, event management technology is a relatively new arm of recruiting technology designed specifically for use at career fairs and other events.

With interview automation tools, candidates can schedule interviews themselves, no back-and-forth required. This convenient approach to scheduling can shave days off the process, allowing employers to get top talent in the door faster.
