Fed Chair Jerome H. Powell was quoted that the impact of coronavirus (COVID-19) has given us the biggest economic shock in the U.S. and in the world in living memory. And the fact that “We went from the lowest level of unemployment in 50 years to the highest level in close to 90 years, and we did it in two months.”
As economies open up once again, there’s a lot of work to do. Rebooting recruiting and hiring continues to be top of mind and scenario planning helps to prioritize what companies do next. Balancing safety, lives and livelihoods are definitely top priorities.
Register today! Registration is free and donations are welcome (recommended donation is $50, although any amount would be appreciated).
