We are excited to announce our 2nd educational event (no sponsor presentations!) for the Boston Area Talent Sourcing Association, free and open to the area's sourcing/recruiting community.  Our first presentation had over 100 in-person attendees and we expect at least as many for the candid, living legend sourcing/recruiting expert, Steve Levy, coming up from NYC to present: Sourcing Unleashed: No Secrets Withheld, No Sacred Cows with Steve Levy, the Recruiting Inferno.

If you've ever seen him present at SourceCon, RecruitingTrends, etc., or read his RecruitingInferno.com blog, then you already know why we're impressed.  But he's not hyperbole - he's legit and proven, and he shares.  Take advantage of his amazing expertise by attending his only scheduled 2015 Boston area appearance.  This new presentation is jam-packed with some of his amazing techniques on how he achieves an e-outreach response rate of nearly 100% (vs. the industry inmail average of 13%), finding the right names faster, how to bypass gatekeepers and be real and technically competent on the phone with rockstar candidates in a way that resonates, and more!  He will also answer a wide range of questions (submit in advance for priority consideration by tweeting your question to @LevyRecruits and end with #BATSAVIP hashtag) like:

• What cool tools and proven methods do I use that makes me more effective than 99% of sourcers/recruiters?
• Why is LinkedIn destined to implode and what should you be doing about it now?
• What aspects of your sourcing suck and how do you fix them?
• How do I get hiring managers to do the right things from the sourcing intake session and after?
