Top 5 Talent Acquisition Trends

In the midst of an ongoing economic recovery, the largest generation in history is slowly but surely taking over the workforce. With 80 million individuals, millennials (also known as generation Y) are currently filling one out of every three positions in the United States and by 2025 they will comprise 75% of employees in the global marketplace. Simultaneously, business itself is evolving: becoming faster-paced, more globally connected, and more technologically advanced.

Therefore, making the best hire possible is both more difficult and more important than ever. Competition to claim top talent is fierce. A far more holistic view of talent acquisition is taking hold, encompassing everything from the candidate experience to the first weeks on the job. Instead of emphasizing automation and efficiency as in the past, the process is now about engaging new hires to form successful, long-term relationships between employee and employer. Businesses need to look to the future to implement the solutions and processes that will attract and retain the best talent while the competition is still playing catch-up.

In this paper, we’ll examine the top five talent acquisition trends in the market, and demonstrate how embracing them now can future-proof recruiting at your organization.

6 Secrets to Engaging Your People

Yet fewer than 1 in 3 employees are actively engaged, and that’s a ratio that needs to change. When engagement is missing, employees have no incentive to improve.
