NEW YORK (April 26, 2011)—Seyfarth Shaw LLP was lauded as “one of the most respected employment law practices in the United States” in the recent Jossey-Bass release – Million Dollar Hire: Build Your Bottom Line, One Employee at a Time, authored by nationally recognized recruiting and hiring specialist, Dr. David Jones.
Jones’ book summarizes the art and science that shape today’s world of recruiting and hiring solutions. Cutting through the theories, economic models, and statistics that often send readers running, the book offers real-world solutions and proven techniques available to business leaders and human resource executives seeking the most return from their hiring investments.
Numerous Seyfarth attorneys have partnered with Jones over the years in shaping world-class recruiting, candidate assessment and hiring programs, and in defending programs used by employers challenged by agencies or private plaintiff groups.
Jones writes that he relied on “the big brain and experience” of Chicago partner Jeffrey Ross in preparing the book’s chapter – “Navigating the Legal Pitfalls.” He describes the chapter as a “straightforward, practical review of the legal compliance concerns employers face in their recruiting and hiring programs.” Jones credits Ross for joining him in the development of HireCompliance, an employer auditing tool used to evaluate hiring “strategies, tactics and day-to-day practices” with regard to the legal risk they bring to the employer. The book’s website – www.million-dollarhire.com even offers a preview of the HireCompliance toolkit.
In May, Seyfarth Shaw will sponsor a webinar featuring Jones and Ross that highlights in practical, business-related terms both the payoff, and the risk, that comes with today’s recruiting and hiring solutions.
