REPORT INTRO: “Students are more empowered than ever before to choose where they start their professional careers. Recruiters in turn are aware of this mounting competition, which is ramping up business pressures to recruit faster and be more agile. Having more year round campus presence and accelerated processes is becoming the norm. In The Must-Know Student Recruiting Trends for 2018, WCN partnered with employer branding thought leader, Universum, to investigate this trend further and to see how current recruiting insights can be improved upon by looking to engage and influence the best hires before competitors by devoting more time on focused value add activities.”
