What is The Recruiter Network?

If you are an HR Manager, HR VP, Recruiter, or benefit manager, there is a local networking group that is set up just for you and you peers, The Recruiter Network of Southeastern Wisconsin.
Our Mission:

The Recruiter Network is a diverse group of individuals from employers and workforce development organizations in Southeastern Wisconsin, which is organized around issues relating to the recruitment and retention of entry level, skilled, and professional level candidates.

We are an informal organization and make every effort to keep it simple and as much like a coffee klatch group as possible. It is expected that all members will periodically (as possible) host a meeting (with light refreshments) at their organization's facility, arranging for a presentation that is timely and addresses our mission statement. These responsibilities can be shared by several members. We have no dues. Individuals automatically become a member upon attending three meetings. Meeting topics are expected to be appropriate to the group's mission. We encourage networking among members, guests and presenters, but do not permit business solicitation. Meetings are on the fourth Thursday of each month. Notices with details for meetings are emailed approximately two weeks before each meeting.
