Content Upgrade Journal:

  • Version 3.2 (Published January 2022)
    In this upgrade, our team has generated professional-grade English language captions for the course. This will be a great addition for ESL learners!

  • Version 3.1 (November 2021)
    In this year's upgrade, we're aiming to beef up your digital sourcing skills. Recruiting was already a tech-forward field, and the Coronavirus pandemic has created an even greater focus on the technology-enabled side of recruiting. So in this upgrade, we added additional content and exercises around Boolean searching (this is especially important for proactive sourcing and pinpoint recruiting) and ways to make the onboarding new employees easier and more effective.

  • Version 3 (November 2020): Wow! Recently, this course has become one of the bestselling recruiting courses on the Internet. You all are awesome! So, your course received a lot of investment this year. Some of the new features in version three are:

    • You'll now meet four successful recruiters from various backgrounds (technical recruiting, corporate recruiting, agency healthcare recruiting, and executive search) in your learning experience. They'll share their tips and insights for you in a new collection of lectures called "Voices from the Field", which you'll now see in the course. You're also invited to add each of them to your LinkedIn® network.

    • Each section in your course has new introductory videos. Now, any time you learn a new concept (for example, what "Passive Recruiting" is), you'll see video footage that compliments that concept. This will help you learn more quickly, and retain what you're learning.

    • You now have an additional cloud-based resource: Eazl's Guide to Using Boolean Search Operators. This guide will enable you to navigate search engines (e.g. LinkedIn®, Google®) more effectively. This will help you find better candidates more quickly.

    • You'll now receive a new, customized 2021 Eazl certificate if you complete 100% of the course.

  • Version 2 (November 2019): In this update, you’ll get brand new content that includes a series of interlinked, interactive assignments that put you at the head of a hiring project. This will enable you to apply your new skills by participating in a real case study. We hope you enjoy Recruiting 2020! Mariana from Eazl's team has also developed full, accurate English-language captions for Recruiting Version 2 to enhance your learning experience further.
