About truBaltics: “The format of the sessions was attractive and unusual because most of the talking was done by participants not the speaker. Also, leaders of each session managed to raise quite active discussions between participants. To me, it was interesting to hear how different experiences and approaches to HR consulting there are”
Liena Ivanova, Consultant @Eiropersonāls, Riga, Latvia
About truBaltics: “Besides being an opportunity to meet industry leading experts and getting insights into HR practices in Lithuania and beyond, this was also a great cultural event for our team.”
Guntars Veigulis, Lead and sole developer @LikeIT, Riga, Latvia
About truHelsinki: “Was the best conference over many years. Nothing tragically new, but the angle/perspective how HR managers see the “World”. Thank you all, who participated in conversations and sharing issues of today. Really cool people, my respects.#TruHelsinki unconference developed so much new relations and content in my head that I have set up a flash-meeting with our marketing and development people tomorrow morning to sort it all out. Got 78 points to work through how to make our own recruitment process better.
Mikk Orglaan, CEO @MIKARE NET/ MAILBOW, Tallinn, Estonia
The unconference was amazing and I really enjoyed thediscussions. It was a casual and comfortable way to share interesting points of view with such great professionals, learning from each other about social recruiting and another issues. I recommend Tru events without any doubt.
María González Merino, Recruitment professional, Madrid
A tremendous benefit of the participant drivenunconference is that no matter where in the world we come from we have similar issues and goals. Though our challenges are similar it’s the diversity of thought and perspective, and the open discussion of creative approaches that brings the real value.
I’ve lead tracks at a few TruEvents and have been so impressed at how recruiting professionals from different parts of the globe are so willing to share their successes, their failures, and their learnings with the one goal of improving the profession.
Arie Ball, VP Talent Acquisition at Sodexo (USA)

Not only will you be given the opportunity to meet and chat with these folks one on one, you will also make relationships that will span the globe and your lifetime. Not many other kinds of events can say that, you should sign up today.
Geoff Webb, CEO at Radical Events and co-founder of the #Tru Events

Bill Boorman has managed to create a great event up in such a short space of time. Lots of learning, lots of predictions, lots of fun.
Lucian Tarnowski, Founder & CEO at BraveNewTalent.com (UK)

I was involved in the initial growth of the #TruEvents movement, the brainchild of @BillBoorman.
It is truly a unique experience – some have called it break out sessions on steroids! Others have suggested it is ‘organized chaos’. For me, it is a unique way to engage with people from all walks of life with amazing experience and viewpoints in a truly ‘caring and sharing’ environment.
Etienne is a perfect example of how #TruEvents work – attending as a delegate to learn more about how job search might work and now as an organizer himself. I heartily recommend attendance (and participation) at #TruGeneva. It will open your eyes to the Art of the Possible.
Alan Whitford, Founder of Abtech Partnership and RCEURO.com (UK)

I was a Sourcing track leader at the second and the third#TruLondon. It was a pleasure to interact with the curious, open-minded audience. Of all the recruiting gatherings I have attended, #Tru meetings had the most interesting crowds and the most informative sessions.
#Tru encourages fresh, unconventional approaches to all things recruiting and the spirit of friendship and sharing. I especially enjoyed discussing international, local and global flavors of recruiting and sourcing. Kudos to Bill Boorman for creating the #Tru unconferences.

It was invigorating to be a part of the Tru experience. Itwas exciting to be with talented recruiting professionals exploring the real issues and opportunities of our work. This isn’t your typical conference or meeting, it’s much, much better.
Jason Lauritsen, Human Resources & Leadership Consultant (US)
Trui s unique in that people of all levels of experience areable to learn, question and share knowledge.
Truevents help germinate seeds of ideas and ways of working that shape our industry for the better.
Martin Lee, Head of Business Development (UK)

Surrender to the magic that flows in the semi-organized chaos #TRU-style; it brings together some of the brightest and most eager minds from Recruitment and HR of Europe.
Patrick Boonstra, Online Marketeer Employer Branding & Recruitment (NL)
I couldn’t recommend #Tru events more highly: for the fantastic people they attract, for the amazing breadth of content they cover, and for the stimulating and rewarding unconference format.
There really is no better way to get the latest on how to enhance your recruiting efforts with social media.
