Social recruiting and mobile have been hot topics for the past few years, but they really haven't changed HR like we thought they would...until now. We expected paper resumes to be useless by 2013-kind of like when we imagined flying cars would be around in the 21st Century. While that hasn't quite happened, we are seeing shifts, both subtle and dynamic, that show the industry continues to move in the direction of digital. We are happy to share with you our recent discussion of trends that we expect to affect HR teams and other industries alike in 2014.

Meet Content Strategy:

to drive long term engagement.

more relevant to your audience(s).
