Αt the end of every year, recruitment teams worldwide plan their strategies for the next 12 months, addressing key areas like resolving issues with their hiring processes, revisiting language in their job descriptions, re-evaluating their talent management, reconsidering what a ‘qualified candidate looks like, and reassessing where and how they source top talent.
To address critical skills gaps, recruitment professionals need to stay on top of the hiring trends. The more willing they are to rethink traditional approaches and understand the current trends, the better placed they will be to take challenges head-on, recruit the best talent, and stay competitive in 2022.
People Matters gathered insights from industry leaders on the recruitment and hiring trends that job seekers may find helpful and companies and hiring managers should look out for this year.
Specificity to be a key theme in hiring
The key theme for hiring in 2022 will be specificity, that is, hiring for specific roles, focusing on the right profile, and this will be done through the use of assessment tools, AI, and data analytics, says Siddhartha Gupta, CEO of online talent assessment company Mercer|Mettl.
“Recruiters will prioritize the 'who to hire' rather than 'what to hire'. 2022 will be the year of data-driven recruitment,” he says.
In the past, the problem when it comes to hiring has always been that there is no synchronization when it comes to aligning. Companies used to end up hiring ‘jack of all, master of none' profiles. In addition, there were cases when a person was hired for a particular position but ended up doing something else, and then got evaluated from a competency framework that was not applicable to their profile in the first place.
