AOEP Increases Slots for Half-Day Recruiter Bootcamp at Bentley College, Waltham, MA 9/26/07
by Glenn Gutmacher
I signed up to present the Internet sourcing session at the Association of Employment Professionals first annual Recruiter Bootcamp. As with the last several events that this Boston area-focused non-profit has held, it was oversold (over 150 have pre-registered, coming from as far as Maine).
I wasn't going to promote it because I was told it was sold out. But when they oversold, AOEP got the host site, Bentley College, to add additional classroom space and now they have room for 200. AOEP will still offer registration at just $50 (yes, that's a two-digit dollar amount) per person for the half-day program (including breakfast).
The content and speakers are best-in-class. And as a non-profit, all-volunteer organization, AOEP provide this to the employment community at substantially below-market costs.
It will be held at Bentley College this Wednesday, 9/26/07 from 8:00AM - 12:30 PM. Seating is limited to pre-paid registrants. To pre-register, go to www.aoep.com/chapters/ma/events/form-mass.php or you can print out the registration form and fax it to 617-507-7702. If you have a recent credit card that expires in 2010 or later, you may find it more efficient to simply fax your order. Contact Mike Vangel at 781-895-4040 if questions.
Doors open and Continental breakfast served at 8:00AM. Sessions begin @ 8:30 sharp. Each presentation is 60 minutes long, most will be presented twice. There are three session timeslots in total so you can pick your favorites:

Patricia is an expert on interview techniques and is a regular columnist in the Boston Globe. She will share valuable insight's from a recruiter's perspective on how to maximize the candidate interview process. Interactive format.
