ERE Webinar

The Art of Closing Candidates

Wednesday, February 23rd 2 PM ET 1 Hour

Sorry, this webinar has ended.

In the current candidate driven market, recruiting outcomes are becoming less predictable. Highly sought candidates are being approached with multiple offers from competing companies. Ghosting and offer declines are becoming a common experience for many recruiters.

In this landscape the “always be closing” mentality is a must-have.

Join us for a free webinar on Wednesday, February 23, with Blake Coleman, Co-Founder @ STEM Search Group, and Michael Rasmussen, Senior Recruiter at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, as they share best practices for maintaining the attention and interest of candidates while motivating them to make the decision to join your team.

Key talking points of this webinar will include:

  • Building rapport and gaining trust
  • Asking the right questions at the right time
  • Being an effective liaison between talent and organizations
