Stage 2

Panel Discussion: From Verification to Employment: How Technology is Enhancing Talent Screening and Onboarding ?

This panel discussion explores how the shift to a skills-based economy impacts hiring, onboarding, and employee development. Despite advances in HR tech, verifying employment, education, and credentials is still often slow and manual. We’ll use real-case examples from Randstad, AON, and Rabobank to show how trusted frameworks for sharing career records are solving these issues. 

Our panelists will share their experiences using verifiable digital credentials to accelerate hiring, enhance compliance, and empower candidates to manage their career data. And we’ll examine how this tech is transforming reskilling efforts and workforce re-entry programs.

This year's theme:
From first impressions to lasting connections

Finding the right people is just the beginning. When it comes to building a successful organization, the secret lies in fostering relationships that withstand the test of time. This year’s Onboard Amsterdam centers around creating lasting connections that go beyond the initial introductions. Remember, success is a marathon, not a sprint. And it all starts with effective onboarding, making sure your team feels valued right from the start. Join us as we explore the art of investing in your employees and nurturing these connections for long-term growth!
