Case Study – West Corporation

Objective: Create a 1-day career fair to attract and hire Sales & Technical/I.T. talent to West Companies. Long term, create a persistent West Virtual Career Center for on-going recruitment.

Scope:

• Duration: 1 day live event , 10 am –4 pm ET, Thursday, September 27, 2012, followed by 30 days on-demand period.

• Geography: Across the U.S.

• Job Focus: Sales, Technical/I.T.

• Expected Registration: 500 -700




Promotional Strategy

• 4 weeks out before event date

• Social media –Twitter, Facebook

• Targeted email campaign

• Employee Referral program

• Online job boards –LinkedIn, Careerbuilder, CareerLink

• Promotional graphic on West product sites in career sections –Intrado, Televox, etc.

• “Blip”/text at bottom of current Sales/Tech job postings

• West Intranet site –banner on carousel




Event Results

• Registration: 807

• Attendees: 362

Key Insights

• Do not promote job fair too early –hiring is cyclical, job postings have expiration dates

• Ensure registration is simple with selected number of fields

• Respect the jobseekers’ discretion/privacy –disabled networking feature; jobseekers only chat with reps/recruiters

• Make sure you have a “content strategy” - What kinds of jobs will you post for this career fair

• Determine how will you display the jobs within the environment hierarchy and how long will the jobs be ‘live’ before they expire?

• Decide what happens to them after the live and on-demand period

• Staffing Assign key recruiters/staff to booths to answer questions, even after live day (create FAQ sheet, proper training, etc).



Case Study Virtual Training Center

52% viewed ALL training content available

Average visit time was 2 hours and 12 minutes

The training team tracked learning behavior the first 120 days and the adjusted the environment structure content to improve results
