put talent experience first to stand out.
The global pandemic, Great Resignation and great talent migration have all made it harder for employers to hire — and just as hard to retain — the people who are driving their businesses forward. As many are asked to return to offices, and people re-evaluate what work-life balance and purposeful work mean to them, talent expectations are shifting dramatically. If your business isn’t meeting those expectations, your competition will. In fact, according to Randstad’s Workmonitor research 70% of workers say they’re open to job opportunities right now, with 32% of Gen Z and 28% of Millennials actively looking for a move.
Even as hiring demand ebbs in the year ahead, high-demand digital skills will still be hard to find. What steps is your business taking to ensure access to the right people? How are you using talent data, market intelligence and recruitment technology to make smarter workforce decisions? In today’s unpredictable environment your business needs to build effective talent strategies to stay ahead of the curve.
Randstad Sourceright provides the strategies, market insights and recruitment technologies you need to find high quality talent and drive your company’s growth.
