Event Details
Join Symba and URx for a riveting roundtable on July 26th, 2022! Early Talent programs are crucial to the diversity efforts and overall growth for organizations, and internship programs have proven to be critical to employee recruitment and retention, but are often the first to be eliminated during economic downturns. This makes it all the more important to understand how leaders can sustain buy-in during these times.. This session will embrace three formats, beginning with a 20 minute panel, followed by a Q&A, and a roundtable discussion. Learn from Richard Cho, Chief Recruiting Officer at Gem, and Emil Yeargin, VP of Talent at Gusto, and apply their insights to your early talent program.
