Gen Y Recruitment Insider – November 3, Toronto

Last night TalentEgg held another egg-ceptionally successful Gen Y Recruitment Insider event!

At TalentEgg’s Gen Y Recruitment Insider series, you learn from organizations that have been among the most successful in recruiting Gen Y talent over the past few years, network with your peers in campus recruitment and human resources, and discover the latest in TalentEgg campus recruitment research.

This time around, we invited Lisa Kramer, Campus Recruiting Leader at Accenture Canada, and Andrea Culligan, CEO of GradAd, to speak to a packed room of Toronto’s campus recruitment and human resources professionals about trends in Gen Y recruitment in Canada.

Thank you to both of them for sharing their stories and strategies, and thank you to everyone who came out to the event! We hope you had a great time and learned a lot about Gen Y recruitment.
