  BOSTON, MA, Apr 10 (MARKET WIRE) -- 


WHO:     Jim McCoy, senior vice president of Consulting
         Services for Veritude, a leading provider of
         talent acquisition, consulting and management
         services, and Joseph Murphy, vice president of
         Shaker Consulting Group, Inc., a firm dedicated to helping
         companies create measurement methods that link staffing practices
         to company performance

WHAT:    Will examine how virtual job tryouts and on-line simulations help
         recruiters attract and engage job seekers during the presentation,
         "Web 2.0: Virtual Recruiting and the Candidate Experience in a
         Global Talent Marketplace"

WHEN:    On Tuesday, April 15, 2008 from 2:00 p.m. to 3:15 p.m. PDT at the
         31st Annual Human Resource Planning Society (HRPS) Global
         Conference taking place Sunday, April 13, 2008 through Wednesday,
         April 16, 2008

WHERE:   Hyatt Regency Huntington Beach Resort and Spa
         21500 Pacific Coast Highway
         Huntington Beach, Calif.

DETAILS: Today's job seekers expect a more informative and interactive
         search process and, on the other hand, corporations expect talent
         processes that get results.  Stuck in the middle are recruiters
         who must attract and engage talent while meeting corporate
         expectations.

         During this session, McCoy and Murphy will demonstrate new
         recruiting techniques such as virtual job tryouts and global
         sourcing models.  Attendees will learn how technology is
         transforming the recruiting process, including virtual strategies
         and their impact on the bottom-line, when and where to implement
         these strategies and the role they play in engaging and evaluating
         talent from anywhere, at anytime.

         The mission of the HRPS is to help organizations enhance their
         performance through strategic management of human resources. To
