Let's talk about the hard stuff and figure it out together.

While we've seen a rise in layoffs at the start of the new year, particularly in the tech sector, job cuts remain at historically low levels overall. While these changes can be attributed to a variety of factors such as high interest rates and inflation, there's consensus that it's in part due to workforce rebalancing post the pandemic hiring boom. Despite the layoffs, the tech job market remains robust and resilient. ?????? #EmploymentTrends #JobMarket #HRInsights #TechSector

Charting the Course for Recruitment in 2024 ???? As we set our sights on the year ahead, HR departments are gearing up to tackle recruitment challenges head-on. Embracing diversity and inclusivity, 62% plan to tap into more diverse talent pools, recognizing the value of individuals with disabilities and those with past incarceration experiences. Additionally, 35% are leveraging pre-employment tests to identify top candidates, while 28% are rethinking traditional education requirements to broaden their candidate pool. However, amidst these proactive measures, persistent labor shortages are prompting HR departments to adopt a more strategic approach to workforce management in 2024. Prioritizing support for the existing workforce takes center stage, emphasizing the importance of employee retention and satisfaction over solely focusing on new talent acquisition. At Amplified HR, we're here to support your recruitment strategies and workforce management goals for the year ahead. Let's work together to build diverse, resilient teams and create an inclusive workplace culture where every individual thrives. #RecruitmentStrategies #WorkforceManagement #DiversityandInclusion #EmployeeSupport #AmplifiedHR

Reflecting on Talent Acquisition: A 2023 Report Card ??? Last year brought to light significant challenges in the realm of talent acquisition, with U.S. workers feeling the strain of staffing shortages and the heavy workloads that ensued. It's a telling sign when those on the front lines grade talent acquisition efforts with a 'C', highlighting a noticeable gap between the perceptions of HR workers and executives who rated themselves with a 'B-' and a 'B', respectively. This disparity underscores the urgent need for HR departments to bridge the gap between executive perceptions and employee realities, focusing on strategies that not only fill positions but also address the workload and well-being of current staff. Amplified HR stands ready to assist in transforming these challenges into opportunities for growth and improvement. By fostering open communication, reevaluating recruitment strategies, and prioritizing employee satisfaction, we can work together to enhance talent acquisition efforts and achieve a more balanced and fulfilling workplace for everyone.
