Recruit, Hire and Onboard Virtual Employees
The recruitment marketplace has a growing number of jobs and a decreasing number of qualified applicants. Top virtual candidates find themselves with the upper hand, patiently and carefully waiting for the right opportunity with the right company.
Companies that know how to recruit, hire and engage virtual talent have the advantage on an ever-changing business frontier. That’s why it makes sense to get hold of the playbook those organizations are using — and that's why we designed this course.
If your company has embraced remote and hybrid work, but you’re still relying on the same old ways to hire and manage off-site talent, it’s time to rethink your game plan. Sign up for this LIVE, instructor-led course and find out how to hire the IDEAL virtual talent for your business. Study the recruitment process from beginning to end — and ensure you’re bringing in new remote hires the right way. Learn the best practices other companies use to keep their off-site employees engaged and eager from preboarding through their first 90 days and beyond.
