The war for talent continues and intensifies. While for several months now, many employees have been leaving their jobs in search of a position that is more in line with their skills skills, companies are putting in place attractive solutions in order to attract the talents that are once again available on the market. In fact, according to the latest study conducted by TBWA Corporation and Viavoice in 2020, nearly 50% of employees want to change companies. A disaster for some companies, but a real opportunity to find talent for others. The question remains: What needs to be done to change things?
When benefits and perks are no longer enough to retain talent
For a long time, benefits were considered to be the main argument for ensuring a certain stability in the job, but they are losing ground in the eyes of employees, who are increasingly turning to the quality of the position and its correlation with the skills they wish to perform.
Theoretically, corporate roles must be adapted to meet the expectations of these new workers seeking professional fulfillment. By establishing a correlation between a position and the profile of a talent, it is possible for the company to benefit from a stable worker who progresses in his work and who gradually unfolds his full potential. This way, they will accomplish their professional goals and feel good at work and in the company. But how do you effectively make this connection so that your company benefits from the war for talent? Fortunately, there are solutions that make it much easier.
How to attract tomorrow’s talent?
To attract the new talent that is currently circulating in the market, there are several solutions available to you:
-You can opt for the manual solution, which consists of studying the different profiles and adjusting your offer according to the talent’s expectations. However, without a good software with AI, you risk investing a lot of time and resources for very unreliable results.
You can also equip your company with AI-enabled software to drive all of this work. Indeed, there are many platforms that allow direct access to the talent market. This means you no longer need to spend hours trying to match an offer to a profile, the platform takes care of that for you and allows you to access all the skills you need in just a few seconds. Moreover, the gain is twofold since your employees will be followed in their development, which allows you to expand their field of skill while offering your company the opportunity to evolve.
AI to help recruiters stop turnover
Given the range of possibilities offered by a platform equipped with powerful AI, there is no doubt that the way talent is retained depends on this technology. One can immediately imagine real-time assignment of projects to talent based on their experience, skills and many other factors that can be integrated with artificial intelligence to optimize automation.
What is a Talent Marketplace?
The Talent Marketplace is an internal database that lists all a company’s employees, along with their career paths, skills and much more. It is this set of data that will serve as material for AI to be able to propose profiles that correspond to a given position or mission. The aim of this marketplace is to limit external recruitment where the war for talent is raging, by focusing on resources and skills that are already present in a company and that may be poorly exploited.
How does a Talent Marketplace work?
The Talent Marketplace does not replace the hiring manager, but it does save him or her valuable time. For a given position, the Talent Marketplace allows you to make proposals with the talents registered in your database. The HR department no longer needs to search for each position, everything is automated, and all that is left to do is select the best talent from the proposals.
How can we guarantee objectivity in internal recruitment?
AI-driven platforms don’t just put profiles with the right skills in front of jobs. Where humans cannot make a purely objective choice even if they do their best, an AI will highlight not only skills, but also growth potential, regardless of age, race, gender or affinity with the person.
