Chamber members frequently report difficulty in recruiting the young people they need to sustain and grow their future workforce. Issues can range from choosing the right recruitment media to attracting young people to rural business locations. The Chamber is working closely with Somerset Education Business Partnership to respond to this very real challenge.
This seminar will help members to plan and execute an effective approach to recruiting young people.
We will address the following key issues:
Identifying the challenges - Exploring the barriers Chamber members face in recruiting young people.
Getting the timing right - When and how young people decide what to do next.
Getting your message out - How can you best reach young people with your message?
Getting the package right - How can you make your offer accessible and attractive to young people.
Building relationships for innovative recruitment - How contributing to careers activity with local schools and colleges can help with recruitment
