What Industry Leaders are saying...
The connections that I have formed over the years at the NRRS have been some of the most meaningful of my career. Bring a pen with lots of ink, as you will want to take lots of notes. The topics and presentations are not overdone or repetitive. They are engaging, entertaining and educational and well worth the price of admission. This is the best way to stay not only up to date but ahead of the crowd when it comes to recruiting and retention tactics and trends.
Michael Zelek
The NRRS is one of the best values for spend. The educational value and networking opportunities are top notch. You will not go away disappointed.
Mike Millian
I highly recommend attending the National Recruiting and Retention Symposium brought to you by TransRep. Not only is it beneficial for recruiters to gain valuable insights and strategies, but it’s also essential for presidents and owners to attend. This conference provides a unique opportunity to network with industry leaders, learn about the latest trends, and develop effective retention techniques. By sending both recruiters and top-level executives, your organization can align its recruitment goals with broader business objectives, ensuring a cohesive and successful approach to talent acquisition and retention.
Glenn Caldwell
As a supporter of NRRS, and a recipient of the many benefits of attending this Symposium, I can honestly say that I am hard pressed to find any other organization that is comparable. I applaud NRRS’ commitment to the trucking industry and their unwavering and constant passion they contribute, year after year.
