New Recruiting Strategies for a Post-Covid World (Back to Work, Better)

Lauren Smith, vice president at Gartner Research, says the pandemic
is accelerating several key recruitment trends. She led a survey of
thousands of job candidates and hiring managers that details the
shift to virtual interviews, but also identifies other ongoing
transitions that may be more important. The research points to
three main trends to manage: a rapid turnover of necessary skills,
the need to expand beyond existing talent pools, and the
competitiveness that comes from offering an "employee value
proposition." Even as more people return to in-person work, Smith
argues, these trends will continue. Learn more about Gartner’s
research in the HBR article "Reengineering the Recruitment
Process."
