A New Approach

As the job market becomes more competitive and increasingly harder for you to find and retain great employees, many hiring managers are looking to take a new approach to the hiring process.  Adopting new ways and thinking outside the box are becoming the norm for hiring managers and recruiters alike.  It is important to understand the trends that are causing this new approach:
  • The employee relationship has become the cornerstone of not only attracting candidates but retaining hires.  The employer-employee dynamic has changed over the last decade and will continue to change.  With the use of technology and social media, candidates and employees today have the ability to build or destroy a relationship with an employer in a matter of seconds.  It is important that you build your company culture around this concept.  You must be sensitive and responsible for building this relationship that candidates and employees are thirsting for.
  • Today, employees are working longer into their senior years, which can cause your workplace to house a multigenerational workforce.  This is different than in the past, and most companies have difficulty adapting to this.  This is where your thinking outside the box will pay off!  You must find ways to accommodate the older workforce with what makes them comfortable, yet still provide the younger generation the open communication and culture they want!
  • It should come as no shock that all candidates and employees today are data driven.  They want more communication, more information, and want it immediately.  Access to data, whether it is company data, job specific data, or personal data, has traditionally been protected and only available to those in management positions.  It is key to attracting and keeping employees today that you find ways to make this data accessible!
