We’re excited to share best practices that we’ve learned as Talent professionals and as a team here at Nonprofit HR that speaks to our engagements with our clients. Today’s focus is going to cover ensuring success in a virtual recruiting environment, tips for effective video interviewing, and leveraging best practices for virtual onboarding.

We will consider ways to align the recruiting process to the current demands of a virtual environment. The good news is many of you are already operating in this way or there are some aspects of the process in which you currently work within a virtual framework.
