10:06:46>> From  Sean Rehder   to   Brent Schreckengost(Privately) : audio “looks” good.

10:07:10>> From  Brent Schreckengost   to   Sean Rehder(Privately) : Thanks 🙂

10:09:22>> From  Sean Rehder   to   Brent Schreckengost(Privately) : I’ll come to you after Glenn, ok?

10:09:42>> From  Brent Schreckengost   to   Sean Rehder(Privately) : Yep that sounds good

10:16:43>> From  Catherine Hansen   to   All panelists : @Malia, what tactics does your internal marketing team use to build talent brand and get direct results/hires?

10:21:35>> From  Daniel Snelgrow : I’ve noticed that during many of these virtual events tend to track in recent grads versus senior, lead, or principal level. You mentioned people attending up to the architect level, how are you attracting this talent and having them attend these events?

10:28:14>> From  Jose Martinez : My company has kept all of the recruiting events we had planned for this year but just moved them virtually and scaled back into smaller and more fireside chat style to create deeper connections

10:28:32>> From  Brent Schreckengost   to   Sean Rehder(Privately) : It is not as easy 🙂 but really understanding and tailoring content/messaging out to this target audience.  If we can present interesting (and complex) problems we are solving with our technology that helps attract more ‘senior’ level talent

10:28:36>> From  Wahoo Fitness : Gotta go, I have a candidate call in 2 minutes.

10:28:44>> From  Brent Schreckengost   to   Sean Rehder(Privately) : Sorry meant to sent that to the group

10:28:57>> From  Brent Schreckengost : It is not as easy 🙂 but really understanding and tailoring content/messaging out to this target audience.  If we can present interesting (and complex) problems we are solving with our technology that helps attract more ‘senior’ level talent

10:29:32>> From  Daniel Snelgrow : Thank you!

10:31:25>> From  Catherine Hansen : @Malia, what’s the name of that event where you present for 5 min?  Didn’t catch

10:32:42>> From  Brent Schreckengost : HackerX

10:34:03>> From  Brent Schreckengost : https://hackerx.org/

10:47:51>> From  Catherine Hansen : @Sean, what form does that outreach to your cold lead take (ex: we’ll be at this event, are you going?)

10:48:04>> From  Catherine Hansen : Is that a cold email outreach to their work email?

10:48:36>> From  Yvette Kamperin   to   All panelists : What CRM (for recruiting) tools are you using?

10:50:32>> From  Heather Levine : I did that with my messaging. Pre – covid a huge seller to my job was face to face sales. So I took all that language out of my messaging.

10:53:16>> From  Jenny Bastrom   to   All panelists : Thank you!

10:53:17>> From  Catherine Hansen : THANK YOU

10:53:30>> From  ASHLEY GREENE   to   All panelists : thanks to all the panelists and Sean!
