3 Ways to Hang With ExactHire at the 2015 HR Indiana Conference
My favorite HR-related time of year is coming up soon. It’s a time to reconnect with human resources colleagues from across Indiana, get in line with the latest employment law updates, scope out emerging talent management trends and let your HaiR down. This will be my seventh HR Indiana Conference in a row and I’m sure it won’t disappoint with around 1,500 registered attendees and a sold out exhibition hall.
Of course ExactHire will be in on the local HR festivities, as well. Here are three different ways you may personally connect with our team during this year’s three-day conference in Indianapolis.
Hear Us Speak
We’ll definitely be informative, but we’re aiming to be funny, too! And let’s face it…with so many concurrent sessions from which to choose and not always enough time to sneak to the J.W. Marriott’s Starbucks in between to prevent those droopy eyelids, you’re going to need some entertainment value. Our Co-Founder, Jeff Hallam (@JeffHallam), and I (@JessLStephenson) will be presenting “Employee Onboarding: Define, Manage, Measure & Excel” during the concurrent session block on Tuesday, August 25th from 10:15 – 11:30am. See? It’s official.
In case you can’t read the tiny description text in that picture, here’s the official program description for our presentation:
To reduce turnover and enable new hire productivity sooner, more organizations are reengineering their employee onboarding processes. Virtually any key performance indicator in business can be tied to people, so an effective onboarding program plays a critical role in improving business performance. We’ll explore the expanding definition of onboarding, discuss how to conduct a needs assessment, identify trends in onboarding automation and look at best practices for process management and stakeholder engagement.
Practical, helpful, current. But wait…funny too! Here’s one of our presentation slides to give you a taste. BTW – if you don’t recognize the reference in this picture you’re simply not allowed to come to our presentation! (Just kidding…or am I?)
I’m not saying that there will be prizes for enthusiastic audience members who participate during the presentation. But, I’m not saying there won’t be prizes either. Hint.
Plus, if you’re intrigued by the presentation content, then you should check out our very latest ebook: All Hands on Deck: A Guide to Employee Onboarding Process Improvement

Chill With Our Own Certification Credit-Starved Attendees

Randi & Jess at last year’s HR Indiana Conference
Like many of you, a couple of us are tasked with keeping our own HR-related certifications current every three years. This conference is a fantastic way to get a boatload of credits at a very reasonable price! So naturally, Randi Renee Shuck, SPHR and I (PHR, SHRM-CP) will both be attendees and eager to learn all the latest HR tidbits to help us continue to grow professionally and be even better equipped to serve our clients.
If you see one of us in a session, please consider saying hello. We’d love to connect and extroversion is simply not a challenge for either of us.
The ExactHire team looks forward to seeing you at this year’s HR Indiana Conference from August 24th to August 26th! If you can’t wait that long and want to talk to us right away, by all means contact us today!
