New main stage sessions include:

Betting on recruiters: How to avoid burnout, hosted by Laurie Ruettimann
Millions of recruiters are working around the clock to fill open requisitions and hire talented people on behalf of amazing brands and organizations. And they are overworked and depleted. How do you help others when you're burnt out, and feeling disconnected from what motivates you?

The strategies and solutions must come from inside the organization as part of a thoughtful approach. Laurie and her panel of successful TA pros will discuss a four-part framework to help recruiters address their own needs and help every talent professional live their best life.

Is everything you've been taught about diversity recruiting wrong? by Jackye Clayton
So you want to add diverse talent to your organization. Where should you start? By sponsoring organizations that focus on diverse talent? Connecting with some HBCUs? Maybe changing the images on your website to include pictures of people who "look diverse"? I'm sorry, but please stop – despite what you have heard, these are NOT the best ways to start finding and hiring more diverse talent.

Working smarter: What the best recruiters do to win, hosted by Hung Lee
In hiring, the right technology and strategies can create the ideal conditions for recruiting efficiency and effectiveness. But what exactly do top recruiters do to win top talent? And what technology do they rely on? Hung Lee, Curator of Recruiting Brainfood, will guide an enlightening panel discussion with recruiting leaders from X, Y and Z companies to explore the specific tools and techniques of elite TA teams.

Recruitonomics: How understanding and applying labor market data will help you win the war for talent by Andrew Flowers
2021 was one of the most challenging years for recruiters in recent history. A perfect storm of fierce competition for talent and a pandemic-induced lull in labor supply made recruiting a lot more expensive, and recruiting costs skyrocketed. The median cost per application (CPA) rose a dramatic 43%, and cost per click (CPC) was up even more, posting a stark 54% increase

What explains these numbers? Job openings surged to all-time highs in 2021 with demand for workers rising across every major industry. At Appcast, we've realized recruitment marketing performance is most effectively optimized in the context of labor market data. We refer to the incorporation of labor market data into the science of recruitment optimization as Recruitonomics.

Talent leaders and recruiting professionals from companies like Rippling, Skyscanner, Ruggable, BlockFi, Cloudflare, Lyft, NPR and more will take the stage during the conference. With a focus on learning and professional development, Open offers talent practitioners two days of engaging, and highly interactive hands-on workshops to build recruiting skills across tracks designed for different experience levels and focus areas.

Open will provide unique experiential opportunities, including the Talent Makers Book Club. Attendees can learn directly from some of the most innovative thinkers and authors in hiring today, including Laurie Ruettimann (Betting On You), Lars Schmidt (Redefining HR), Stacey Gordon (UNBIAS) and Stela Luphoshor (Humans at Work).

For attendees who cannot attend in-person, select sessions and content will be available to stream with a virtual ticket.
