#EmployerBranding, skills based hiring, and retention, may dominate Recruiting conversations in the future. The number of people in the workforce is finite, so companies may look to attract, train, and retain the talent we work so hard to find. https://lnkd.in/g4KUeSkx

Retain the talent you worked hard to source, interview, and hire. This can be done by upskilling, training, and promotion. https://lnkd.in/gQaEjVEQ

Hiring has clearly slowed a bit as many employers are taking a "wait and see" approach. There is still a pay premium for job changers, but the growth in pay for job-stayers is closing the gap. https://lnkd.in/dGxDCx6

Employee and job seeker preferences continue to change. Moving forward main motivators will continue to be flexibility and belonging. Coming back up on the list will be stability and access to new tech when needed. https://lnkd.in/gFs2ZKCR

Hiring Managers focus on candidates that "check every box". This is difficult and the talent pool is finite. Perhaps instead of a "plug & play" candidate, we can help managers interview for skills like; ability to learn, resilience, and high team-orientation. https://lnkd.in/gSDR3txP

Personality tests are trending again and can be helpful. They should not be solely used as hurdles, but tools to gain more insight into your final candidates. Know what these are measuring and what aligns to the goals of the team and the role. https://lnkd.in/gpSaEXva

Standing out above the crowd relied on a few simple ideas. Keep the process simple, lean on your Employer Brand, and engage and personalize the reach outs. https://lnkd.in/eEtj27pb

93%...That's a big number! Many people are (or will be) looking for a new role this year. Just remember that not all of those job seekers will have a resume online or be in the usual places.

Transitioning to skills-based hiring can be tough, but with the pending "demographic drought" the best employers who lead in the talent market will focus on hiring for skills then developing talent to stay. "When given the option between a role with development opportunities or a higher salary, the majority of job seekers across?all markets?choose growth." https://lnkd.in/gFCaYP2n

Job descriptions should be enticing and specific. Discuss what problem will the person filling this role solving for? How is success measured and rewarded? https://lnkd.in/gAXguJGG
