"Be Better than Your Competition: How to Differentiate Yourself in Today’s Recruiting and Sales Landscape"
Presented by John Ruffini

This session equips recruiters with actionable strategies to meaningfully differentiate themselves from the competition — not by what they do, but by how they do it.

We will explore key areas where top recruiters distinguish themselves:

• Canvassing Skills (Targeted Recruiting and Sales): Proactively go where the candidates are — instead of waiting for them to come to you. Balance immediate placement needs with long-term pipeline development.

• Communication Mastery: Know not just when and how often to communicate, but which channels and approaches resonate most. Tailor your messaging for maximum impact and engagement.

• Relationship Building: See candidates and clients as people first, not just transactions. Cultivate a genuine curiosity to uncover true needs turning every conversation into an opportunity to add value. Ask the right questions so thoroughly that you rarely need to “sell.”

• Personal Branding: Ensure your online and offline presence communicates your unique value clearly and consistently. Create an impression that lasts — making you the recruiter candidates and clients remember.

This session also ties these methods to reducing one of the biggest frustrations in recruiting: candidate ghosting.

"Your Personal Branding & Differentiation Story"
Presented by Beth Messich

This session will discuss how to identify your core strengths and traits, build your career ladder and story and how do you leverage that into your personal professional branding.
