We’re always interested to find out what big data companies believe will be the ‘next big thing’ in the high-volume recruitment industry. So we thought we’d do a round-up of our top 3 recruitment predictions for 2023!
Proactively engaging candidates has long been a common practice when filling C-suite executive vacancies but it was rarely used when hiring for entry-level positions.
However, the scenario is changing now. In a LinkedIn survey, 84% of recruiters said that engaging passive candidates is becoming important in lower and middle-level roles and for bringing top talent into the funnel.
2023 will witness more recruiting and staffing departments turning to automation for simplifying repetitive tasks and reducing admin work.
In a survey done on 2,848 recruiting professionals, most agreed that investing in better recruiting tools and technology is the best way to improve recruiter performance. Read about the 11 Recruitment Automation tools to have in our blog post here.
“In the future, recruiters will look more and more like HR business partners.” Tristan Klotsch, Vice President of HR at Serrala.
In the coming year, recruiting will increasingly be recognised as a strategic role. Recruitment leaders and their teams will be expected to bring a perspective, push back, and lead the way forward.
