Talent acquisition and recruitment leaders are critical to both talent and business strategy. Join your peers from around the globe to share perspectives on leading the conversation for attracting and hiring top candidates.

Types of breakout sessions

There will be two types of breakout sessions allowing you to participate in peer-to-peer problem solving, and hear from industry changemakers and first-movers.

Solution Rooms: These sessions are designed to foster peer-to-peer problem solving and community building. Here, we’ll tackle challenges and face change head-on alongside peers, subject matter experts and talent practitioners.

Each Solution Room will be offered on both days - once on Tuesday and an encore session on Wednesday.

Big Ideas: Time to think BIG and dive deep with thought leaders and trailblazers into the most relevant topics, sparking inspiration and providing insights only LinkedIn can provide.
