Assess Systems and Red Robin International to Present Best Practices in Talent Branding to Assist Companies in Improving Quality of Hire

DALLAS, June 14, 2012—Assess Systems and Red Robin International, Inc. will present at HR.com’s Institute for Human Resources virtual conference taking place on June 18 and 19. The conference theme is Quality of Hire.

T. Scott McTague, M.S., director of consulting services for Assess Systems and Bill Streitberger, vice president of human resources at Red Robin International, Inc. will give their presentation, “You’re Hired! Positioning Your Brand to Select the Best Talent.” The presentation begins at 2:00 p.m. EDT on June 19.

A Human Capital Management study found that 71 percent of employees join an organization based on the talent brand, while 75 percent of employees base their decision to stay with an organization on the talent brand. Clearly, the connection between talent and company brand exist, and talent-savvy companies have figured out how to leverage this connection to their benefit.

Streitberger will discuss how to creatively attract talent and McTague will explain how to select the right talent for a company’s identity. Attendees will learn:

– How one company has overcome and responded to hiring challenges in a competitive talent market.
– Innovative tools and strategies for aligning brand in talent recruitment.
– Practical knowledge on best practices in talent selection.

“One of the most powerful tools a company has in its talent hiring toolbox is their brand,” said McTague. “Our presentation gives companies a framework for linking strategic hiring processes with the company’s culture, values and presence.”
