Recruitment professionals and HR executives with staffing responsibility in Asia have been traditionally “thrown into the deep-end” and provided little or no guidance.
This is according to Steven Yeong, founder of HOF Consulting, a Singaporean consultancy firm working with recruitment agencies in the region, who tells Recruiter: “There have been few if any recruitment conferences or seminars in Asia specific to the needs of talent acquisition professionals to come together and share best practices and be introduced to new recruitment technologies.”Organised by HOF Consulting, the APAC Recruiter 2012 conference, to be held in Singapore on 22 March, will bring together corporate staffing professionals and recruitment consultants, with speakers such as Amybeth Hale (editor, SourceCon) and Brindha Bal (Asia-Pacific talent acquisition leader, Hitachi Data Systems).
Yeong’s website adds that when he started the firm in 2007, he “realised that formalised training for recruiters and HR executives involved in staffing was almost non-existent in Asia”.
