Ready to Find Your Next Star Performer?
Finding skilled and qualified people to fulfill a job has become a bit challenging this past year. Covid-19 changed so much about how businesses run and how they hire. They have had to lay off a lot of people to keep headcounts lower and to make ends meet.
Someone’s skills are sometimes not always evaluated when they are hired for a job. The experience in a certain field is focused on more. But, sometimes people’s skills can be outside of their experience level. That means that finding what people are capable of should be looked into a little bit more.
How Businesses Are Recentering Their Focus
Since the pandemic, the way businesses are hiring people has shifted. They are trying to look at the bigger picture more. Before COVID, only about 59% of the time did a business look into an employee’s skill set, but at their experiences. That has changed by 19% since the pandemic hit.
A Gap In Skills
Looking ahead, businesses can see that there are going to be some gaps in the skills that people are going to be capable of. The pandemic of 2020 brought a lot of things to a halt, and many people had to stop schooling and things. Forcing businesses to find ways to close that gap that is foreseen to come.
In the next 6 to 10 years, many businesses have already predicted there is going to be a drastic drop in skills. That is why many are finding ways to re-skill and look further into their existing employee’s skill sets. Finding ways to help close that gap that is projected to be seen over the years.
