Hiring used to start with a job posting and end with a resume stack. Not anymore.
In today’s talent market, employers are being forced to rethink what works, and what doesn’t, when it comes to attracting and keeping great people. This month’s Chamber Roundtable invites you into a candid discussion about the shifts in hiring, and how to adapt your process to meet the moment.

This program will explore:
• How the best job descriptions aren’t checklists – they’re sales pitches
• Creative (and underused) channels to find great candidates
• Simple ways to screen smarter and faster
• The real predictors of job success and why interviews and resumes aren’t enough
• Local data from the Chamber’s Business Climate Survey on workforce trends
Leading the conversation is Jim Howard, Ph.D., of Performance Resources and longtime workforce consultant to businesses across the region. Jim also powers the Chamber’s Job Board, giving him a front-row seat to employer challenges, candidate behavior, and what makes the difference between a good hire and a great one.
This session is designed as a practical, interactive conversation. Bring your questions, experiences, and ideas. Let’s talk about what’s working, where we’re stuck, and how we can help each other build stronger teams.
