In 2023, we experienced the development of the requirement to headhunt skills rather than fill the functions of actively using individuals. At the same time, the increased circulation of using prospects seemed like a favorable change, however actually, it did more operate in terms of the need to reply to everyone, assess each profile’s suitability to the function and employment send more rejection e-mails.

The effectiveness boost that the AI and automation tools offered allowed us to make the process quicker and more constant. We accomplished an improvement in the Time to Hire metric and the drop in Voluntary Turnover, and, at the exact same time — an increase in employee NPS.

Rethinking and upgrading your company brand name to adapt to the changes

No employer wishes to miss out on out on hiring the finest talent.

To become one of the best, openness is expected throughout all phases of the talent method. This means leveraging the ideal technology and tools to support human proficiencies and constructing a strong employer brand based upon them.

Diversity (DEI), flexibility, openness and employment the rise of relatable organisations are the keywords in focus for employer brands in 2024.

We’ve seen a lot of change throughout 2023.

— Firstly, the need for the workplace on a versatile basis has picked up. While fully remote and remote-first opportunities remain dominant amongst jobseekers, hybrid roles are ending up being increasingly popular.

Our Q3 Flexible Working Index (a report which tracks evolving trends throughout the versatile jobs market) exposed a sharp shift away from remote work amongst employers — completely remote roles represented simply 4% of task posts between July and September, usually.

Meanwhile, jobseekers’ demand for remote work stays strong, but our information shows that the more versatility companies provide staff around working areas, the more popular they are amongst candidates.

— Secondly, the traditional work week has actually significantly progressed over the past year.

The classic Mon-Fri is taking a backseat. Increasingly more companies are introducing an alternative approach, that includes variations of the 4-day week, the 4.5-day week, and the 9-day fortnight.
Demand for the 4-day work week has actually escalated, with approximately 47.4% of Flexa users noting it as their favored way of working throughout October. During the exact same duration, 37.5% selected the 4.5-day week as their preference, and 14.1% mentioned the 9-day fortnight was theirs.

It is necessary to automate as much administrative work as possible so the recruitment procedure is as efficient and premium as possible. Recruiting is getting more technical with every year. I ´ d state that an excellent recruiter should keep up with the patterns, know the target group, and understand how to connect to them. Also, there has to be a little bit of a salesperson in every employer, in a great way.

The most important abilities for an employer in 2024 are:

Business partnering and consultancy skills. The ability to take part in significant conversations and forge collaborations with employing managers and stakeholders is critical. We must initially cultivate a wealth of company acumen and abilities within ourselves to genuinely operate as invaluable organization partners.

Predicting what’s ahead of us becomes a vital skill amongst TA specialists and assists us construct meaningful collaborations with our stakeholders. The upcoming years indicate a tangible shift, requiring essential change when it pertains to time-based metrics, however not only. Integrating Talent Analytics and Talent Intelligence into resource preparation is becoming the requirement even before recruitment activities start. Balancing the internal and external perspectives ensures that we keep up with modifications and stay half a step ahead. As the data subject needs to expand, storytelling skills take centre stage-because information holds a crucial story, and we are in the lead of composing the story around this.

Balancing the needs of organization needs while making sure individual wellness is important to fight the pervasive obstacle of recruitment burnout in the year ahead.

The second one would be trust. 2023 was notorious for the number of layoffs, I feel that there is a growing deficit of trust from the candidates side. Therefore, business need to be conscious of building their genuine company brand names inside out and taking great care of their existing employees. Prioritizing the wellness and engagement of current employees ends up being not just a business responsibility however a tactical imperative to rebuild and strengthen trust in the hiring landscape.

And there’s so much data to back this up. For example, LinkedIn’s Employer Brand stats state that 75% of job seekers think about a company’s brand name before even getting a task.
In a study of 1,000 staff members, Visier discovered that 90% trust their employer. When asked why, 65% stated, «They usually tell me the reality», 52% said, «They’re transparent about business policies and practices», and 38% stated, «They motivate staff members to speak up».
And information from Deloitte revealed that trusted companies outperform their peers by as much as 400%!

We are likewise visiting a great deal of lazy recruiters severely utilizing Generative AI tools. We must bear in mind that nobody speaks like ChatGPT, so we can not simply spit up content and pass it off as our own. Personalisation will be essential for us to remain Human.
