Thank you to all that attended our first professional development event of 2021, “Through a Glass Darkly: Increasing Transparency in Talent Acquisition,” featuring Michael Deas, ABC, SCMP, Marketing Manager at Lee Company.

- How to “stand out” from the competition as a hiring employer or a job seeker
- Recommended, and not so recommended, tools and platforms to help your success rate
