Harvard Business Review On: How to Hire Superstars

Saturday, March 14
11:00AM - 12:00PM

Hilton Austin Downtown
Salon E
500 E 4th St

How do you recruit, hire, and retain awesome people? Today startups and behemoths alike brag about their team of ninjas or rockstars. But how can you tell if someone really is a star – and how can you get that person to want to work for you?

We have assembled our own superstar team to help you answer these questions and more. We'll discuss how to find hidden gems – the fantastic people other organizations have overlooked – and how to build a diverse recruiting pool. We'll also tackle what to do if you can't find people with the skills you need and how to build a talent pipeline when you're not even sure what those skills may be in six months or a year. You'll leave this panel with a firm understanding of how to bring great people to your company.
