Technology and the Employee Experience
With Barry Morris, CEO, CapRelo
HRO Today: In recent blog posts you’ve discussed the importance of Employee Experience (EX). Why now?
Morris: With the battle over talent being more critical, EX is a crucial driver of HR value. Onboarding new employees is expensive while keeping existing employees is more cost effective. I have found that many global mobility groups see EX as a critical indicator of the ability to attract and retain top talent.

Reimagining Talent Acquisition for SMBs
With Tim Oyer, Vice President of Sales, Advanced RPO
Small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) with 15,000 employees and less are the engine of the U.S. economy, but in a tight talent market, many are struggling to hire and retain top-performing employees. A recent study from LinkedIn found that the majority of SMBs (84 percent) struggle to find enough people to interview and hire for open positions. Seventy-three percent are challenged by competing with better-known companies for talent, and 75 percent are unsure if candidates will succeed in the role, even after the interview.
In this interview, Tim Oyer, vice president of sales at Advanced RPO, shares some insights that mid-sized organizations can leverage to improve their hiring outcomes in a competitive marketplace.
