The majority of our clients are focusing their energy on candidate acquisition at present. The candidates themselves have come to expect the best, so, if you\u2019re competing for top talent, ensure your application and interview process beats out the competition. Candidate experience and time to hire are where the focus should be. Currently, we\u2019re seeing a time to hire of two to three weeks!<\/p>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt\">\n\tCovid-19 Impact on Jobs<\/h2>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt\">\n\t<br \/>\n\tBe under no illusion, Covid-19 is still impacting businesses &#8211; both directly and indirectly. Ensure you\u2019re able to pivot your business and recruitment process to embrace remote work and a lack of face-time with talent. This continues to be an obstacle to providing an incredible experience for many organisations.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt\">\n\t&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt\">\n\tImportant stats:<\/p>\n<ul dir=\"ltr\">\n<li style=\"line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt\">\n\t\t71% of candidates are looking for remote-only positions, while 31% are open to hybrid working models.<\/li>\n<li style=\"line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt\">\n\t\t76% of employees will likely stay with their current employer due to the flexibility of their position.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>\n\tReskilling Workers<\/h2>\n<p>\n\tFor the first time ever, reskilling workers is now firmly on companies\u2019 agendas. This represents the talent-first landscape defined by a need for qualified workers, fast. Offering employees the opportunity to learn new skills and adapt to the current needs of the business means you\u2019re less likely to lose your best people.<\/p>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt\">\n\tContracting is on the rise<\/h2>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt\">\n\t<br \/>\n\tWe&#8217;re starting to see more positions for contract work, project work, and one-off commissions, and more people are finding that self-employment is a better option for them than conventional employment.<\/p>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt\">\n\t&nbsp;<\/h2>\n<h2>\n\t&nbsp;<\/h2>\n<h2>\n\tWe have the solution\u2026<\/h2>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt\">\n\tIf you\u2019re having a difficult time attracting and retaining IT, cyber security, and digital professionals, identifi Global can help. <strong><u><a href=\"https:\/\/www.identifiglobal.com\/contact-us\/\">Contact us today<\/a> <\/u><\/strong>to discuss your talent strategy!<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt\">\n\t&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt\">\n\t&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"line-height: 1.38; margin-top: 0pt; margin-bottom: 0pt\">\n\t&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; Q1 has come to an end and the talent market shows no signs of slowing down.
