Coral Springs, FL, 07/17/24–Amplify People, the talent service for custom integrators powered by One Firefly, is thrilled to announce the launch of the "Hiring Success Summer Webinar Series," a three-part webinar series focused on recruiting and hiring top talent for the custom integration (CI) industry. Led by Samantha Hodz, Director of Talent Acquisition Services at Amplify People, this series aims to address the current talent challenges in the CI space and provide actionable solutions to transform hiring processes for businesses looking to ramp up their hiring and growth heading into 2025.

“We believe that people are the cornerstone of any successful organization. This webinar series aims to guide industry professionals in improving their hiring processes, ultimately driving growth and success for their businesses,” said Ron Callis, CEO of One Firefly.

Series Overview

The custom integration industry is currently grappling with an economic downturn, exacerbated by bottlenecks in sourcing skilled talent and a highly competitive hiring market. The summer webinar series, designed exclusively to tackle these talent challenges, will help companies attract top candidates and position their organizations for growth in 2025. Each session will offer practical insights and proven strategies for attracting, sourcing, and evaluating candidates to ensure businesses build high-performing teams. Industry professionals are encouraged to register now and take advantage of this opportunity to learn from hiring experts.

“In today’s competitive market, attracting and retaining top talent is more crucial than ever. Our webinar series is designed to provide CI professionals with the tools and strategies they need to build strong, successful teams,” said Samantha Hodz, Director of Talent Acquisition Services at Amplify People.

Collaboration With Industry Experts

Amplify People’s webinar series will partner with top hiring experts from OneVision and CEDIA to cover critical topics around attracting, finding, and evaluating top-tier talent in the industry. Ron Callis, CEO of One Firefly, alongside Samantha Hodz, will launch the series in July with an in-depth look at how CI businesses can position themselves in the market to attract quality candidates.

In August, Samantha will be joined by Chris Williams, Director of People & Operations at OneVision, to discuss where businesses can seek talent, through both online and in-person channels.

“Finding and identifying the right talent effectively is key to building a high-performing team, and many dealers may not be aware of how to best leverage the talent tools and opportunities available to them. I’m thrilled to join Amplify People in this initiative and share OneVision’s expertise with the CI community,” said Chris.

Finally, in September, Samantha will be joined by Paul Dolenc, Vice President of Education & Training at CEDIA, to discuss how to strategically evaluate candidates during the hiring process.

“Partnering with Amplify People for this webinar series aligns perfectly with CEDIA’s mission to support and advance the smart home industry, and bring new skilled professionals into the space. We’re excited to share our insights on talent sourcing and help professionals in the CI space thrive,” said Paul.
