Shaker Lauds DaVita, ERE 2009 Recruiting Department of the Year

Chicago, IL—Shaker Recruitment Advertising & Communications (Shaker) was on hand in San Diego last month when DaVita, leading provider of kidney care services and Shaker client, was named Recruiting Department of the Year at the ERE Expo 2009 Spring Recruiting Excellence Awards ceremony.

The Electronic Recruiting Exchange presents these awards annually to organizations that demonstrate best practices in recruiting and retention. DaVita was one of eight distinguished companies honored at the black tie–optional event, held on March 30, 2009, at the San Diego Convention Center.

“We are so proud of our DaVita teammates,” says Shaker Account Manager Erin Wozniak. “They have worked extremely hard, and they continue to raise the bar for recruitment—and in a challenging industry, no less. They truly have earned this honor.”

Finalists were judged on their demonstrated ability to advance their businesses and further the recruiting profession through talent strategies—including diversity programs, career sites, referral programs, and employer branding. DaVita’s award-winning application detailed how its talent-acquisition professionals have helped to generate better hires and fuel business outcomes.
