Embracing ethical AI tools completely changed my technique to recruitment: Automated Resume Screening: swiftly matching candidate certifications with job requirements. Chatbot help: guides candidates, responses FAQs, and schedules interviews effortlessly.

In 2023, we experienced the development of the need to headhunt skills instead of fill the functions of actively using people. At the same time, the increased flow of using prospects looked like a positive modification, but actually, it did more work in terms of the requirement to respond to everybody, evaluate each profile’s viability to the function and send more rejection e-mails.

The efficiency boost that the AI and automation tools supplied allowed us to make the procedure much faster and more consistent. We achieved an enhancement in the Time to Hire metric and the drop in Voluntary Turnover, and, at the exact same time – an increase in worker NPS.

Rethinking and revamping your company brand to adjust to the changes

The nature of work and the expectations towards the office and employer have substantially shifted in the past years. There is also a generational modification in the labor force – Gen Z is entering the workforce as a part of the Boomer generation is retiring.

To keep up and go beyond these expectations and keep working with and retaining leading talent, companies have to reconsider their employer brand and offering. At our end-of-the-year webinar, Kaarel Holm from MeetFrank shared that the Pareto concept applies in their user base – 20% of the best employers get 80% of the applicants. No employer wishes to miss out on employing the very best skill.

To turn into one of the very best, transparency is expected throughout all phases of the skill method. This indicates leveraging the best technology and tools to support human competencies and developing a strong employer brand name based on them.

Diversity (DEI), versatility, openness and the rise of relatable organisations are the keywords in focus for employer brand names in 2024.

We’ve seen a great deal of change throughout 2023.

– Firstly, the demand for the office on a flexible basis has rebounded. While totally remote and remote-first opportunities remain dominant amongst jobseekers, hybrid functions are becoming increasingly popular.

Our Q3 Flexible Working Index (a report which tracks developing patterns across the versatile tasks market) revealed a sharp shift far from remote work among employers – totally remote functions accounted for simply 4% of task posts in between July and September, typically.

Meanwhile, jobseekers’ need for remote work remains strong, however our information reveals that the more versatility companies use personnel around working places, the more popular they are among candidates.

– Secondly, the standard work week has actually considerably evolved over the past year.

The classic Mon-Fri is taking a rear seat. A growing number of business are presenting an alternative approach, which includes variations of the 4-day week, the 4.5-day week, and the 9-day fortnight.
Demand for the 4-day work week has escalated, with approximately 47.4% of Flexa users listing it as their preferred way of working during October. During the exact same period, 37.5% selected the 4.5-day week as their preference, and 14.1% specified the 9-day fortnight was theirs.

Technology will permit you to genuinely make data-driven choices whilst having the ability to track candidates, raise your company branding and master recruitment marketing.

Recruiter skillset in 2024

In the last few years, we have seen a lift in skill- and value-based hiring. Companies are now actively upskilling their current labor force and working with brand-new staff members to fill the ability spaces.

This also implies recruiters must adjust their abilities to match the requirements. Recruiters require a mix of exceptional soft abilities and hard abilities to be effective in 2024 and beyond. A successful employer in 2024 is a fantastic communicator and facilitator who knows how to sell the role and the business, deals with data and statistics to think strategically, and adapts rapidly to the changes in the market.
