Essay Competition on Talent Acquisition
IEEE CS Madras, ACM Chennai & CSI Chennai are pleased to announce an essay competition on the subject "Talent Acquisition"
Talent acquisition is a strategic role in an organisation to identify, target, and attract the most qualified candidates for a given role. Talent acquisition is beyond simple recruitment and involves several complex steps to ensure long term needs of an organisation. Talent acquisition involves different stakeholders -- employer, employee & recruiter. While each one of them contribute for the effective talent acquisition in the overall hiring ecosystem, challenges are faced by everyone.
We expect the authors to focus on the challenges faced by any one of the three stakeholders -- employer/employee/recruiter and pen the essay and submit by 18th Dec 2021.
12 prizes to shortlisted essay authors and certificates to all participants will be provided.
