One of the most powerful tools you have in growing your company is your people. Only a team of committed individuals can accomplish great things, and it starts with recruiting the right person for the right role. 

This webinar will help recruiters and engineers understand the challenges the other is facing and provide them with specific tips on how to collaborate better. Recruiters will learn how to prevent common mistakes in communicating with engineers; engineers will learn how to give recruiters what they need to succeed at getting hired.

In this webinar we’ll cover:

  • Cultivating empathy
  • How to communicate effectively
  • How to create compelling job descriptions and outreach campaigns 
  • How to look beyond the resume
