Based on a UK agency having the equivalent staff numbers as an NRF one the fee is £14,500 or €17,000 as opposed €1500. Broken down into - UK agency pays £12,384 for assistance in HR and Legal and an additional £2176 for every day membership. Their events are all charged separately per person and this includes breakfast briefings/workshops/conference -- where by with the help of sponsors NRF is free to most events…………

You have heard the phrase facts tell, stories sell, for those of you who never heard this story about the store Target I will recount it quicklyA father is irate when his 15 year old daughter receives info about pregnancy clothes, from Target, on a mail drop. He complains about the inappropriateness to the shop but subsequently apologises as he unfortunately find out his 15 y/o is pregnant. Target looked into their data and it found that she had changed from scented to unscented shampoo and had bought a range of vitamins mainly bought by pregnant women – all of this had generated her profile as 89% chance of being pregnant, so the store knew before the father knew – that’s how data analytics are now tracking us

Why collaborate? RMS builds innovative risk solutions to help the insurance sector quantify financial risk based around manmade and natural disasters such as Pandemics! The algorithms that run Plague are similar to the algorithms we build. As a relatively unknown business yet a market leader in a sector we helped pioneer we could see how we could use the game to 1. raise awareness of RMS through guerrilla marketing and 2. attract/engage candidates by playing the game.How we use the game now (as determined by business requirement)Attraction/Engagement: Careers fairs: grads are invited to play the game, their names are added to a leader board and they can play as many times as want to, to stay at the top of the board. itunes vouchers are given to the top three.Grads remember the game, remember us and as theirs a strategy to doing well in the game those who are successful are invited to interview with us.Other plans to use the game: Plague-off: send the game to specific university courses, players send screen shots of their scores to us, top 3 at each Uni receive itunes vouchers. Courses are specific to our business (science or technology) to encourage applications to the graduate courses. Twitter competition to attract more followers, similar to above. (rmsjobs) When looking for life & health modellers will have them play the game to see if they can create better algorithms. Graduates play game in assessment centre style environment to determine team players/individual contributors.ROI so far: Candidates have applied to us having become aware of RMS through the game Candidates applied as they found the concept of collaborating with a game like Plague Inc innovative. General increased awareness of RMS by gamersFarmville – 70 million players, many who play every day! Cityville – starbucks…Pfizer case study – they had tried to crack a problem a potential HIV cure – they got 20 gamers in a room with “fold-it” a modelling game
The Candidate experienceDo we recognise the person looking for a job is human- has a mortgage to pay – how is the experience for them (esp with mobile)We need to be more conscious now more than ever about what candidates say about us as that is how we wuill represent the brand
