It has been over two years since we published our report and recommendations on quality of hire. More than ever, it has become a hot topic. If you want to see how AstraZeneca (a $24B company with 65,000 employees) put quality of hire into action, come and listen to this webcast Thursday, May 4 at 9:30 a.m. ET or 2:30 p.m. London time (GMT).

Presented by People Management magazine, this webcast will feature myself co-presenting on the topic: Is Talent Management the future of HR? with Tim Wood, from AstraZeneca based in the UK. The discussion will be broader than just quality of hire, but having glanced at a preview of what Tim will present, youll see a great example of how HR is moving away from simple efficiencies towards real measures of effectiveness!
