About Us

Our Mission

The Capital Region Recruiters’ Network (CRRN) was founded in January 2000, to bring together recruiters and employment professionals to ensure the growth of business in the greater Capital Region.​  CRRN has instituted a mission statement and accompanying by-laws in order to formalize and expand the local network of recruiters. Because the economy and employment outlook for this region remain strong, this is a critical time for CRRN to emphasize the importance of attracting and hiring talent, and to provide an arena for employers to target these individuals.
