Whether you consider technology a friend or a foe, it's here to stay - and grow - rapidly. Come along for a ride. Join Kelly Services technology guru moderate a panel of staffing company techies who will explore the ins and outs, and ups and downs of technology integration.
You'll learn how technology delivers return on investment for staffing companies and what role it plays in helping them keep up with their competition. You'll explore different applications and tools that staffing companies are using, how they are integrating them, and how that integration has positively affected productivity, workload, and the bottom line. Discover how technology integration can enhance the experience of your candidates and clients and learn innovative ways to use technology to benefit them, such as portals that provide quick answers to their questions or let them perform administrative tasks easily.
Fire up your infrastructure to be more efficient so you can spend more time where it counts - face-to-face with prospects, candidates, and clients.
