IMPROVING THE ROLE OF RECRUITERS IN AN UNCERTAIN ECONOMY BY CREATING NEW JOBS
Recruiting's worth has always rested in its ability to amass high-calibre workers who possess vital skillsets in order to accomplish the company's immediate and long-term goals. In the past, this goal was achieved through recruitment strategies that focused primarily on adding new workers to the ranks. Recruiting departments were able to acquire candidates with similar profiles from established pools of talent because of the allure of the company's established employment value proposition (EVP). However, several macro shifts in the world in which we recruit have challenged the underlying assumptions of our conventional recruiting practises. Traditional methods of hiring have become outmoded due to changes in the nature of candidates' talents, the availability of alternative talent pools, and the emphasis placed on the employee experience. Leaders in the field of recruiting should stop thinking about just filling positions and instead define needs, find candidates, and attract top talent in order to influence the future of the workforce.
