13:30 - Tim harps on career services for hiding their students instead of making them really available for employers.
16:45 - Tim says that CHRO’s want from universities and colleges is a LinkedIn for college students. They want some sort of database that is like LinkedIn that will allow them to search for new hires in their areas.
