Who would have guessed the best way to get ahead in the high pressure world of grad recruitment was to join the competition? Four accounting firms – BDO, Grant Thornton, Staples Rodway and WHK, in an innovative move, worked with assessment provider, Talegent to create a shared psychometric testing system for graduates, integrating assessments with CVMail.

The payoff? All four firms saved time and money, quickly sifting through huge numbers of grads to focus on the best fit qualified candidates, while creating a seamless candidate experience with a unique employment value proposition for each firm.

Join HR managers Michelle Strawbridge of Staples Rodway and Rebecca Isted of Grant Thornton and Talegent Product Directors Mike Hart and Cameron Beazley to discuss how they developed and implemented the system and the strategies you can use to make your own recruitment process more competitive.

Just a very quick note to let you know that in around 36 hours Darren Rowse will be holding another ProBlogger webinar - this one with a fellow Aussie by the name of Sarah Wilson.

Sarah is a well known Aussie media personality who in the last 18 months has made the switch from primarily focussing upon mainstream media to building an online presence and business for herself.

Sarah has drawn on her experience as a magazine editor, host of Australia’s Master Chef TV show and columnist in newspapers to launch SarahWilson.com.au and in the last year to release two ‘I Quit Sugar’ eBooks which have helped tens of thousands of people - not to mention being highly profitable.

In a one hour webinar with Sarah on Tuesday at 8pm US Eastern Time Darren Rowse will be asking Sarah about what she’s been learning in her blogging, what bloggers could learn from main stream media, how she authored and launched such successful eBooks and a lot more.

You’ll also have opportunity to ask Sarah questions.

Best of all - this webinar is completely free and there are no strings attached.
