An event for technical recruiters and sourcers, where the emphasis is on the conversation. #tru is the biggest series of HR and Recruiting UnConferences in the world.

Powered by Dice at the Swedish Embassy in Washington DC. It's a half-day barcamp style unconference, meaning that we take the fun part of a conference (think coffee breaks) where people get to network, discuss ideas and get inspired, and take out the lengthy presentations and "Death by PowerPoint."

Topics revolve around real recruiting issues, like challenging the skills shortage, employer branding, talent acquisition, cool new tech sourcing tools, referrals etc. To give it a bit more structure, we divide the event into topics = tracks, which are moderated by designated thought leaders or pure enthusiasts. A track lasts for forty minutes, and the content is determined by the participants, who are drawn from practitioners in technical recruiting.

8:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m., ET

Tickets are restricted to 100.

Track Leaders:

• Lars Schmidt, Sr. Dir. of Talent Acquisition, NPR
• Celinda Appleby, Digital Media Program Mgr., HP
• Kara Yarnot, Founder, Meritage Talent Solutions
• Aliah Wright, Manager/Online Editor, SHRM
• Lori Barry, Principal Consultant, PinPoint Recruiting Solutions
