IQPC Taps eQuest's David Bernstein for Advisory Ro

SAN RAMON, CA--(Marketwired - Jun 25, 2013) - David Bernstein has accepted an invitation to serve on the advisory board for IQPC's Big Data Analytics HR Forum, to be held September 16-18 in Chicago. The board will help IQPC (International Quality & Productivity Center) create an event tailored to the needs of human resource executives who need practical information to implement Big Data initiatives in their organizations.

HR professionals can feel overwhelmed by the idea of adding Big Data to the mix, yet Big Data has already proven itself to be a game-changing necessity. The Forum will provide a Big Data Boot Camp for those just entering the ring, along with a comprehensive three-day curriculum of strategies to create an evidence-based, data-driven organization.

Bernstein is the head of eQuest's Big Data for HR/Predictive Analytics Division, which enables organizations to make evidence-based decisions about their recruiting and hiring strategy. He is responsible for developing consulting services and custom business solutions that leverage eQuest's over 1 billion job board performance statistics. He writes and speaks regularly on how data analytics can predict future behavioral patterns of candidates and create a competitive advantage in candidate sourcing.

"The time has never been better to unleash the power of information and technology to revolutionize the human resources function," said Julia Douthart, Executive Director of Big Data IQ. "We are thankful to have someone of David's caliber and expertise helping us to create a conference that will give HR practitioners practical tools to strategically partner with their organizations in unprecedented ways."

"Big Data is no longer a 'nice to have' but a 'need to have' if HR hopes to become a true strategic partner to the business," Bernstein said. "I look forward to sharing my experiences in HR and in Big Data to help make this conference just what HR professionals need."
