Twenty–two thousand (yes, that’s 22,000!) HR professionals descended on Chicago last week for SHRM – the Society of Human Resource Management’s big annual trade show.

This is our big chance each year to spread the word about you, our 2 million loyal subscribers, to the HR and recruiting world at large. So with that, I thought I’d show you your subscription dollars in action and let you see how we get even more great $100k+ recruiters and $100k+ jobs for you!

Here are my candid photos from the show, and you can click through here to find them all on Flickr!


Here’s our team getting ready to spread the word about all our great $100k+ subscribers.

OK, folks, hope this little walk through our big trade show experience gave you a little bit more insight into how we work here at TheLadders.

Now it’s time to get cracking for the week. Good luck on your job search!
