We are pleased to announce that the San Francisco Chapter of the ACFE will hold our next meeting on May 16, 2017 from 5:30-7:30 PM. Our meeting will be a combination of a micro-job fair with various organizations from the Greater SF Bay Area, and a special presentation with an outside expert in the field of recruitment and career development and professional networking. (2 CPE’s will be awarded) This will then be followed by a social time with refreshments.

I would also like to give a special thanks to Golden Gate University and the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) for stepping up as our main sponsors for this event.

Special Presentation Topic: “How to improve the communication challenges hiring manages and internal recruiting teams have in the recruitment of professional talent”

How to open up the pipeline for prospective candidates to meet and talk with hiring manages, not just the recruiters. What are the responsibilities of each; the hiring managers, the candidates and the internal recruiting teams?

Managing expectations:

• The challenges candidates have finding and speaking to hiring manages.
• The challenges internal recruiting teams have filling current roles.
• The challenges hiring manages have with candidates and recruiting teams.
• Then discuss how candidates can find and open communications with hiring manages.
