Description
Hiring & Retaining 'Generation Y' Candidates
Join Sun-Times Media and Monster to learn how to attract, motivate, and retain top 'Generation Y' workers, one of the most vital segments of today's - and tomorrow's - workforce.
A new generation of young workers is bringing unique skills and talents-as well as new challenges-to the workplace. They have a new set of expectations about work, life, and how the two should be combined. But their energy, tech savvy, and enthusiasm can-if it's tapped and channeled correctly-be an in invaluable asset to any organization.
In this workshop, Monster's Charles Purdy will correct some common misconceptions about Gen Y workers; he'll also discuss these workers' strengths and weakness, what they're looking for in employers, and the best ways to motivate, mentor, and manage them.
Registration deadline: Friday, March 18, 2011
