Description
Please join PEAT for the August edition of our virtual speaker series, PEAT Talks on Tuesday, August 18 from 2:00 p.m. – 2:30 p.m. Eastern Time.* This month we are pleased to welcome the Adam Streets, Senior Director of Global Marketing and Product Owner of GettingHired.
Adam will be talking about how GettingHired supplies an accessible platform for job seekers with disabilities to search positions and connect with inclusive companies throughout the United States. In addition, Adam will share information on GettingHireds feedback from job seekers about the online application process and the resulting recommendations for potential changes. PEAT has worked extensively on the accessibility of online job applications in the past year and has found GettingHireds efforts and expertise in this area helpful in informing our efforts.
