Virtualizing HR: Leveraging Virtual Environments for Recruiting, Benefits and More

Organizations have been providing virtual human resource services for several years, and now some leading organizations are taking virtual HR to another level. We will explore how leading organizations are going virtual and how they are leveraging virtual environments to recruit, on-board, provide benefits and help truly change the way their organization manages strategic HR functions.We will actually conduct this event in a virtual environment similar to what these leading organizations are using, so you can see the environment actually in action. In this event you hear from experts and even be able to collaborate on the following:

Virtual Recruiting & Benefits:
