Last week, industry visionary Bill Boorman brought the #TRU (The Recruiting Unconference) event series to the U.S. for the first time ever. This two-day participant-driven unconference event was held at Bullhorn’s Boston headquarters. Attendees included leaders from staffing and recruiting agencies, corporate HR, employer marketing departments, and independent consultants.
For those of you who could not make the #truBoston event, we collected video, Twitter, and blog content that captures many of the great recruiting and staffing discussions.

Excerpt from Steven Duque’s blog entry:
“Recruiters often forget the “social” part of social media. During his session on UPS’ social recruiting efforts, TMP Worldwide’s Mike Vangel agreed: “Respect for dignity as a person is often lost in the automation of social recruiting.” In a similar vein, recruiting veteran Steve Levy, an endless fount of funny but poignant sayings at #TRUBoston, added, “The best unused social media tools are the phone call and the handshake.” We at Bullhorn agree.” Read more here.
