Technology Made Simple for Technical Recruiters (& AEs)

Training Series

TechServe Alliance offers a four-part, online training series – Technology Made Simple for Technical Recruiters (& AEs) – presented by Dr. Obi Ogbanufe.

The goal of the training series is to make Recruiters and Account Executives more conversant in the language of the key technologies and associated skill sets enabling them to be more successful in their roles.

Non-technical recruiters and account executives will come away with a better understanding of the technology fundamentals that will allow them to more confidently source, engage, interview and place technical talent as well as communicate more effectively with hiring managers about their technology talent needs.
