About the event

The landscape of talent acquisition is changing quickly, and it’s crucial to stay up to date. You probably studied Hunter & Schmidt (1998) at university, but a lot has happened since then. In 2022, Dr. Paul Sackett published an extensive meta-study, reviewing years of research and presenting groundbreaking results that are reshaping how we view selection processes.

He found that some hiring methods are perhaps not as effective as we thought for predicting job performance, while others may be even more powerful. This challenges our current hiring practices and highlights the need for change. On October 21, Dr. Paul Sackett will be joining us in Stockholm to deliver a keynote speech that will revolutionise your hiring strategies.

This event is fully booked. Please join the waiting list!
