Discussion Topics
This special Colloquium session will be focused on a specific recruiting area: College Recruiting.

Other discussions during the event will include:
- YouTube, MySpace, Facebook, Second Life, Video Resumes, Video Games, Affinity Circles, SelectMinds, Hirevue and more. Blockbuster technologies for sourcing & selection? Or career nightmares in the making?
- Student & Professor Ambassadors: Can you "buy" a staffing brand presence via reps or other means?
- Is Virtual College Hiring w/o College Campus Visits a Future Option?
- You are your Corporate Website: 10 Best Candidate Experience Features
- Onboarding of College Grads and Interns - Best practices prior to Day 1
- Going Broad or Going Deep - How many universities should a corporation invest in to meet their talent needs?
As is our practice at CareerXroads Colloquium events we ask all attendees to bring “what keeps them up at night” in their recruiting organizations so we can help each other solve those issues. After all, it's the caliber of our group that makes each session unique and provides that Aha! moment you'll take back to your office.
