Anne TaylorA merger or acquisition usually means culture change, layoffs, new policies, procedures, and regulations.  Maintaining a positive outlook and recruiting in this environment is exceedingly challenging – especially in a candidate-driven job market. Anne Taylor, Corporate Recruiter and Talent Acquisition Manager with Virgin America will be on hand to discuss their experience following Alaska Airlines’ acquisition and subsequent announcement that Alaska would be retiring the Virgin brand in 2019.

Most recently, we have learned that Amazon, known for its tough aggressive culture has purchased Whole Foods, who is known for their team spirit, collaboration, and internal growth opportunities. I can only imagine what this new acquisition will mean.

If you have been through this before, you know it means recruiting at the same time as laying people off, recruiting for a culture even you don’t understand and resenting the fact that it is happening. And even though you usually know well in advance, it feels almost like being held, hostage.

During this weeks RecruitingLive, we will discuss recruitment successes and failures, and details around their co-culture building programs.

See you Friday and don’t forget to tweet @RecruitingBlogs #rdaily!
