Join our chat with Nancy Maren, Assistant Director, Contingent Workforce to learn how to prevent your contingent workforce program from becoming a black hole to staffing suppliers submitting candidates.  Nancy has 20 years of experience in workforce solutions and will share how you can build a program that is mutually beneficial for the enterprise and suppliers. 

Your external recruiters spend a significant amount of time finding and submitting candidates, but oftentimes they hear nothing back from the enterprise. Their candidates land in a “black hole.” This creates a poor experience for the suppliers, candidates, and ultimately damages the brand of the enterprises.  

To explore this topic further, below are a few questions that we plan to explore:   

  • What is a “black hole” program? How does this happen?
  • From soup to nuts, how do you build a program that isn’t a “black hole”?
  • Why are “rogue suppliers” the program’s fault?
  • How do you balance supplier management with other projects?
