Presentation:What should be keeping you up at night about the job market

Abstract

What should be keeping you up at night about the job market. And a few things you can do about it: A Conversation with Gerry Crispin

I tell stories. After 50 years of studying the hiring landscape globally, I’m just happy to share what makes sense to what you want to know about.

About the speakers:

Gerry Crispin

Gerry describes himself as a life-long student. He stays grounded by engaging a community of friends & colleagues every day- actively promoting the notion that Talent Acquisition (TA) is the ‘point of the spear’ of HR. Every stakeholder in the hiring process, especially candidates, must have their basic needs addressed. Gerry founded CareerXroads in 1996 to encourage the transformation of hiring into the 21st century. Today, with his business partner, Chris Hoyt, CareerXroads is in its second decade as a member driven community of Talent leadership teams from 130 major firms who are devoted to learning from and helping one another improve their hiring practices.

In 2010, Gerry co-founded a non-profit, Talentboard, with Elaine Orler and Ed Newman, to better define and research the Candidate Experience, a subject he has been passionate about for more than 30 years. Today the ‘CandEs’ has firmly established itself around the world and publishes competitive practice benchmarks for employers each year in North America, Europe, Asia and, soon, South America (based on more than a quarter million candidate surveys each year from 300-500 participating employers.) In 2017, the Association for Talent Acquisition Professionals was launched after years of discussion with practitioners, consultants and service providers. Approaching 1000 members in 2019, ATAP’s Board of Directors is building a body of work to truly support recruiting as a profession. This milestone completed another bucket list item Gerry was intent on seeing through. Gerry co-authored eight books on the evolution of staffing, and has written 100s of articles and whitepapers on similar topics. His career spans 50 years and includes Consulting, Recruitment Advertising, HR leadership positions with Fortune 100 employers, Executive Search and Career Services at the University where he graduated with his BE and in Engineering and IO/Psychology degrees. And no, he hasn’t retired.

Gerry’s student persona keeps fresh by leading global delegations of CHROs and TA leaders with China Gorman each year to interview government officials, employers, professors and students about work and hiring practices somewhere in the world. Recent countries include Japan (2017), Cuba (2015) and Eastern Europe (2018). Next up is Singapore (November, 2019).
