Crack the Talent Crunch: Access New Talent Pools & Create a Better World of Work

HR - SHOWCASE

20 July 2022, America 12:00 pm - 1:30 pm EDT

IN PARTNERSHIP

The talent shortage isn’t a sign that the world’s talent pool is dwindling; it is a sign that employees are stepping into their power. In a new Indeed survey, 92% of respondents said the pandemic made them feel that life is too short to stay in a job they weren’t passionate about. And over 76% of employees held the belief that this talent shortage is offering them new career opportunities that they wouldn’t have otherwise had.

It is inevitable, leaders must rethink how they hire. Clinging on to outdated hiring processes and neglecting brimming talent pools is a fast trick for creating a workforce lacking in diversity and loyalty.

So, how can organizations escape the dilemma between hiring workers they know to fall short of a job’s requirements, and leaving vital roles vacant, only to swallow up the capacity of an overstretched staff? How do we enhance business while creating a better world of work, through fair hiring and inclusion?

Join Indeed at this virtual showcase to uncover common recruitment practices that may be limiting your talent pools, break down bias in hiring, and explore real solutions to the talent acquisition problem.
