BOSTON, MA (January 13, 2021) – Sevenstep, a global leader in total talent outsourcing solutions, including product offerings for recruitment process outsourcing (RPO) and managed service provider contingent workforce programs (MSP), continued a roundtable series, “The Exchange,” with a virtual RPO event today. Attendees included Sevenstep clients and prospects from the oil and gas, logistics, member services and healthcare industries.

Topics discussed include 2021 talent acquisition and business objectives, internal mobility, diversity, equity and inclusion challenges and opportunities, and how technology is being used as a competitive differentiator during these dynamic times.

“Talent acquisition leaders are struggling for different reasons right now. As healthcare organizations face ongoing challenges to ramp up, especially as the vaccine becomes more readily available, oil and gas faces a ‘double-downturn,’ with cyclically down oil prices and decreases in demand as a result of COVID-19. Internal mobility, reskilling and the strategic use of technology to optimize processes are all on the docket this year,” said Yates Baker, Vice President of Client Solutions at Sevenstep and moderator of “The Exchange” series.

The objectives of “The Exchange” series is to offer Sevenstep clients a forum to collaborate, discuss key trends and share how their organizations are responding to challenging talent acquisition problems, as well as to network with peers outside of their industries.

“In today’s talent environment, it can be easy to get tangled up in the tactical, day-to-day deliverables, but it is paramount, especially with the long-term implications of critical topics like diversity, equity and inclusion, to equally prioritize vision and planning. This event was a welcomed session to ideate and strategize with fellow senior TA leaders,” said Jeffrey Lackey, Vice President of Talent Acquisition at CVS Health.

“The Exchange” series will continue throughout 2021. More information will be forthcoming. As an industry thought leader, Sevenstep will use the series to drive innovation and continuous improvement across its programs while connecting senior-level talent acquisition, HR and procurement leaders to one another.
