The War For Talent
Employers need people with certain skills, but those skills are hard to find…or are they?
Talent Trends:
#1: Upskilling remains a priority – skills are the new currency, more employers should be investing in training their current workforce in 2019
#2: Hiring for potential rather than experience – employers should loosen requirements on position descriptions.
#3: Recognizing talent as consumers – employees need to be enticed with the company’s strong value proposition, purpose, and culture
#4: Wages, benefits, and flexibility will be key – employers should increase salaries and wages to attract and retain top talent
#5: Tech will play a leading role – employers should invest in AI to speed up the interview process.
