SMASHFLY CONTINUES TO LEAD THE RECRUITMENT MARKETING MOVEMENT WITH FIRST-EVER VIRTUAL RECRUITMENT MARKETING CONFERENCE: TRANSFORM VIRTUAL™

United States, June 19, 2017 -- CONCORD, Mass., June 19, 2017 - Last November, SmashFly Technologies, the leading Recruitment Marketing platform provider, hosted SmashFly Transform™, the industry’s first-ever conference focused exclusively on recruitment marketing. This interactive event sparked a movement in the talent acquisition space that resulted in the creation of a recruitment marketing community comprised of talent acquisition leaders from enterprise organizations across the U.S. who all have a shared purpose: to learn and share fresh ideas that will transform how they recruit top talent. To continue the movement, SmashFly today announced Transform Virtual™, a free half-day virtual event scheduled for this Thursday, June 22 sponsored by Allegis Global Solutions, Cornerstone OnDemand, Glassdoor and The Muse.
