Hiring and Retention Post-2020 Recap
Tech Talk Series
In partnership with SXSW
Posted on 04/29/2022 by Bryce Bencivengo

Earlier this week we hosted a conversation about hiring and retaining talent given the competition that is currently happening for talent. The focus of the talk was also on how to make your workforce more diverse and DEI-friendly.
Hugh Forrest, Chief Programming Officer for SXSW, moderated the discussion with Samantha Snabes co-founder of re:3D Inc, and John Florez, founder, and CEO of Rightworks Inc. All three shared their insights into what can be done to better retain and recruit talent.

All three panelists encouraged employers and supervisors to try new things and not be afraid to embrace feedback on improving benefits and company culture. Additionally, both Samantha and John emphasized how challenging the market for talent is right now, but that being in a place with a high volume of graduates from higher education can be extremely helpful.
