Here are the top 5 recruiting trends that talents and companies need to keep on their radar. They are based on the LinkedIn report on the future of recruiting. We are happy to provide more detailed, personalized advice – feel free to get in touch.
1) Data and Artificial Intelligence
Data and AI are changing the way that talent is found and evaluated. Recruiting relies more and more on data-driven solutions to find the right match between a candidate and job. But do not worry, personal contact remains crucial – and we will remain your competent partner throughout the entire recruiting process.
2) Personalized Application Process
Despite all the automation, today's talents value a personalized recruiting process, almost expect it. For many companies, it is quite challenging to respond to the individual needs of candidates not only efficiently, but also with dedication and empathy. Coopers is happy to assist in this regard, because our recruiting process is centered around people. We invest time and effort in personal relationships and thus create long-term, reliable connections between all parties involved.
3) Attractive Working Models as a Competitive Advantage
Some working models rely entirely on remote work, others have employees back in the office more often, and many concepts strike a balance with a hybrid solution. Flexibility and work-life balance are important criteria for many professionals when choosing a job. Companies that offer attractive working models have a clear competitive advantage here.
4) Diversity and Inclusion
Diversity and inclusion are no longer trends, but integral parts of a modern corporate culture. A growing number of companies place importance on putting together teams that combine different perspectives and backgrounds. As a candidate, it is therefore becoming increasingly important to differentiate yourself not only through technical know-how, but also through soft skills that encourage collaboration in diverse teams. Which soft skills are those? Contact us for an individual, personal assessment (completely free of charge).
5) Employer Branding is Gaining in Importance
At a time when the top talents get to choose their employers, employer branding plays a crucial role. Companies need to position themselves clearly and communicate their values transparently to attract the right candidates. For many applicants, it is becoming increasingly important to understand the culture and values of a potential employer before even applying.
