Why Organisations Need a New Approach to Talent Acquisition?
Current State of Talent Acquisition
Top 3 Common Challenges
Organizations often fail to find candidates with the right fit for a job. Finding the right hire has always been a time-consuming, lengthy, and expensive process that dampens organizations’ capability to meet the intensive needs of skill shortages.
Through our experience working with various clients in different industries, we have identified recurring challenges that arise in the recruitment domain. These challenges often include lengthy and manual candidate filtering processes, inadequate methodology to holistically assess the candidates, and poor candidate experience that leads to a high drop-off rate.
Challenge #1: Lengthy, Manual Process
The recruitment process can be a time-consuming task for HR, resulting in frustration when manually filtering through candidates. This strains the organization’s resources and can lead to missed opportunities to hire suitable candidates.
Challenge #2: Subjective Decision-Making
Recruiters tend to make hiring decisions based on subjective observations of candidates, which can be influenced by biases and stereotypes, potentially leading to missed opportunities to hire highly qualified candidates.
Challenge #3: Poor Candidate’s Experience
While assessments are valuable tools for the talent acquisition team in the hiring process. employers must consider the candidate’s experience. Poor candidate experience and unclear instructions are one of the main reasons for the high drop-off rate.
